It was great to see so many folk out for the social last Thursday. There were some who were established regulars, and new people who were just visiting Edinburgh for the summer. It’s a quieter period for events now, both for the ones that we organise and across the community, but most groups kick off again in September. Remember, you can check out a three week view of upcoming events on our What’s on page. A special shout out to TechMeetup Inverness who have announced meetups in August, September and October. Check out the Inverness city page for links! Looking slightly further ahead for Edinburgh there is an “HTML Day” event on August 8th in the Meadows, which should be a fun one to attend.
