User group suggestions

All good ideas, but 10 and 12 struck home with me. One thing we need to realise is that sometimes people can't make it and you'll have a very small group – don't take it personally (as I usually do and get all concerned). More importantly (point 12) respect the time of your members. Don't overdo it, and make sure you don't have them hanging around wasting time.

I have now taken to starting on time as much as possible, but having pizza half way through – this also helps with catering since you can order the pizza based on how many have turned up.
