18:57.30zachary is currently on #gllug (10h 34m 3s).  Has said a total of 5 messages.  Is idling for 4h 59m 20s
19:06.22zacharyhi formi
19:06.30formihey
19:06.42zacharyduaghter just went down for the night
19:06.52formiwhen is the leafleting going to happen?
19:07.16formiis it tomorrow?
19:07.32zacharycolin did it early in the morning, before the doors on the computer fair(sp) opened.
19:08.00zacharyso I would say we need to be handing out leaflets by 9:30 - 9:45.
19:08.31formitomorrow??????
19:08.38zacharyyes, tomarrow. Sorry
19:08.46formiok
19:09.05formii have to get used to be idea of having to get out of bed early
19:09.58formihave you ever turned up at such an early time to the fairs?
19:10.20zacharyI will be a trick on my end. Wife just started up on a watch section with her work. Today she has 4pm - 11pm.
19:10.43zacharyno, I usually go at about noon -> 1:00
19:11.35formithe earliest i've been was 10:45
19:12.00formibecause of a meeting going on that day
19:12.37zacharyWe don't have to go early, but I think we can get rid of the leaflets faster. People waiting in line with nothing to do!
19:13.03zacharyDo you know where the other computer fairs are?
19:13.13formiI know 3 of them
19:13.33zacharywhere would you like to meet tomarrow?
19:15.15formii suppose by the one near wu
19:15.46zacharysounds good.
19:16.10formitime?
19:16.36formii need to be off to grab some proteins
19:16.54zacharybetween 9:30 and 9:40.
19:18.26formiand you plan to spend all day handing out leaflets?
19:21.13SpudULikeHi ho.
19:21.20zacharyNot all day, need a pint or two and something to nibble on. How much time would like to spend?
19:21.26zacharyhi SpudULike
19:21.43SpudULikeNot much point before 10, best start at 10, or plan to at least.
19:22.11formiSpudULike: are you joinning the fun?
19:22.23SpudULikeWhat, packing?
19:22.34zacharyok formi, computer fair on cleveland at 10:00?
19:22.57formiapproved!
19:23.09SpudULikeAlso, best not to hand the leaflets out directly outside the door.  If you are doing the Wyndier Building, then do it from the corner.
19:23.39SpudULikeThe show organiser took a dim view of me being right outside the gate to his show!
19:23.54SpudULikeI know it is a public highway, but best keep them sweet!!!
19:24.57SpudULikeIf one of you gets a show guide, which will have their contact details, I will contact them.  Once he knew what we were doing he was happy for me to hand out leaflets INSIDE the show!
19:25.25SpudULikeAt some point in the future we may also want a table from them.
19:28.44zacharySpudULike: We did bring them business last meeting. Might be a nice bargining point.
