Autobahnstormers usually meet on the second Sunday of each month at Donnington Services, perhaps we could do a combined meet?

Thanks to all the chaps who were able to answer the questions that I had asked. (Especially those that I would feel too daft to put in print here on the forum).  Forums are good but you can’t beat an occasional face to face with a group of experts.  I hope we do another east mids meet sometime in the future preferably when the days draw out and it’s a bit warmer. ;D

I'm currently chatting with the Autobahnstormers to see if they'd be happy for us to join up again at their Midlands meets.

So far all comments back have been positive so hopefully we'll carry on. The only request is that we all park facing forwards as the photo's look much better!

Will update when the organiser for the Autobahnstormers Midlands meet gets back to me.

Cheers
Andy

Yes they are last years dates, next one will be March 9th.

I probably won't be going as i've got to go into work..... unless my 'tell the boss exactly what you think' meeting from earlier this week results in me having the sack by then..... in which case i'll be there!  ;D

Well this was the first time I have ever let rip to the extent I did. Won't bore you with the details on a public forum but if you've worked in IT for long enough you'll recognise it's just the usual story of ignorant users backstabbing you to management when little do they know you worked all rather weekend restoring their vital server.

Stuff them, i'll just do my job in normal working hours now and the server will be down for as long as it takes.
