The club is organising a Thai meal at Sabai Sabai, Regent Street, Leamington. It will be on Wednesday 26th February in the evening. More details will follow soon.
The club is looking into organising a self drive event to the Lake District. This is likely to be in late summer, avoiding school holidays. It will be a multi-day event, either self catering or hotel near Grasmere or Keswick. This is to make you aware of the possible event; there will be more information in the January newsletter.

E2412XML: Christmas Lunch 11 December 2024
As a result of the perceived lack of interest in 2023’s Christmas Lunch, it was, with some trepidation, decided to organise one for 2024. It turned out to be a success at the Boar’s Head in Hampton Lucy, where 32 guests turned up to meet old friends and enjoy a nice meal with welcome drinks, rounded off with coffee and mince pies.
More photos from the day can be seen in Dropbox.

The IBM Tech Club meets using the Zoom video conferencing platform at 11.00 on the third Friday of each month. The club is a place where you can talk to IBM folk about matters technical. For example, help or advice on buying or using computers, smart phones,touch pads; engineering, electronics, wifi, bluetooth, cryptography, bitcoin, using computers to making movies, songs or musical works, best software, streaming, the internet, photography, diy, and anything else about the modern world you would like to understand better.
Apart from the technical discussion we try to have a talk by a club member at each meeting. This depends very much on members volunteering to prepare and show something they are interested in.
At 11 o’clock on the day of the meeting click on the link below. It should take you straight into the meeting.
