07:42.11devilhornshi morsing :)
07:42.17devilhornsany news on when the next meeting is ??
07:43.53morsingHaha :)
07:43.55morsingGood one
07:47.05devilhorns??
08:15.03wethrinThere's insufficient enthusiasm for actually organising a meeting
08:15.35wethrinIt's quite sad, really, when other LUGs around the country are being quite active, with regular events
08:15.45wethrinAnd the capital can't do much
08:18.28devilhornsthat IS sad :(
08:18.42devilhornsI would have thought that a London lug would have been more active
08:18.45devilhornsthan other Smaller ones
08:18.52devilhornsie: There is one in Surrey this weekend
08:18.59devilhorns(which I plan to attend)
08:19.18wethrinyou'd have thought so
08:19.26wethrinThere have been some meetings from time to time
08:19.38wethrinThere's also a disadvantage of actually getting people into London
08:19.40devilhornsare they usually announced on the mailing list ?
08:19.44wethrinThey would be, yes
08:19.48devilhornswonderful
08:19.56devilhornswant to do a presentation at the next one (if possible)
08:19.57wethrinThere's a London.pm social tonight, if you want booze with geeks
08:20.13wethrinCareful. If you keep talking like that, you'll end up organising one :)
08:20.17devilhornson a work night ? :)
08:20.21devilhornslol
08:20.41devilhornswell, I would not mind attending one ... tho not sure I have the actual time to organize
08:20.42wethrinexactly :)
08:20.51wethrinThat's what many people say...
08:21.07devilhornswell, working for a Top 5 electronics company keeps me busy :)
08:21.22devilhornsand spending my free time at night writing code does not leave much Spare time
08:31.43wethrinDon't write code, organise meetings :-P
08:32.38devilhornslol
08:32.49devilhornsI wish...

12:36.32dick_turpinmorsing: How come Boris never sent you a tricycle?
12:47.35morsingBecause he doesn't know me
13:15.44dick_turpinmorsing: Of course he knows you, you're famous!
13:25.26morsingI know
13:25.33morsingBut he doesn't
13:29.49dick_turpinNa he knows yaMatt. He must know you?

14:38.06morsingWeird, I've got a letter from the DVLA saying my car must be insured or SORN'ed, but the V5 clearly states that SORN is only for non-taxed vehicles
15:07.56AndyMillarthough your vehicle must also be insured
15:08.04AndyMillarand there's no point having tax if it's not insured
15:08.10AndyMillarso SORN makes sense in that case
15:49.29dick_turpinpopey: !

22:14.45z00daxmorsing: part of the whole automated- motor insurance database thing
22:21.40wethrinThe DVLA shouldn't be sending insurance reminders
22:22.09wethrinI'm sure when the DVLA sent me my tax disc reminder, it said that the car must be taxed or SORNed
22:25.15z00daxthey do ( send insurance reminders too ) these days
22:25.32z00daxhttp://www.askmid.com/ is what they are using
22:29.50wethrinoh right
22:29.54wethrinThat must have been very new then
22:30.07wethrinI don't remember them doing so back in December, when my insurance was due
22:35.18z00daxI might be wrong on this - but I believe some of their assertions are still based on some specific changes to law and dvla mandate making it in ( ie. they may not all be in place already )
