Jo of north Craven networking wrote: Many local people are now
blogging on a wide range of topics. I would like to start this
informal group for sharing of ideas, mutual support and technical
help. No commitment to come every time just a chance to meet up and
help support and encourage each other.
It really doesn’t matter if you are new to blogging or have been doing
it for a while. All are welcome.
We will meet at the Royal Oak between 5 and 7pm on the first Tuesday
of each month. They will provide copious amounts of veggie soup and
hot drinks so no charge for the group itself but £5 for food payable
on the day.
Please book if you intend to come so we know numbers and can make sure
there is enough soup and coffee!
