[Talk-GB] OSMappers meeting in Norfolk

[nkn at posteo.net]

Hi Norfolk mappers,

this is the confirmation for the OSM meeting to take place on Saturday, 
11th May, 2pm.

I reserved a table in the Rumsey Wells Pub, 4 St. Andrews Street, 
Norwich, NR2 4AF.

See you there :)


Jez - I did contact NorDev. Unfortunately no response yet. Might try the 
other two platforms at a future meeting. Thanks.

Nora
