Ta muchly, I can see my second perl CGI will be a lot more secure than
my first :(

The Great Western or whatever the big white place is on the roundabout
by the exit of St Davids station is a good choice if anyone comes by
train. Parking there or on St Davids hill is usually easy.

The drink isn't cheap, but you can talk, and read if needs be, even use
a laptop if you are desparate ;)

Cool, although I have a nagging suspicion I agree to another regular
meeting thursdays, at the Great Western, if we have the same venue maybe
I can make both if they ever clash ;)
