North West UK
Drupal NWUK meets on the third Thursday of the month and features expert help, demonstrations and handouts. Bring your Drupal questions and problems, as well as any projects you'd like to demo.
We plan to have at least two "demos" with time for questions and chat with the option of moving on to a pub for refreshment!
See http://www.drupal.org.uk for announcements.
Drupal For Enterprise
We are delighted to invite you to Drupal For Enterprise, an event focusing on the common benefits and challenges of using Drupal in a business organisation.
Whether you're evaluating Drupal or are already using it, this event is a great opportunity to learn from the experience of other organisations, put your questions to the experts, and connect with the Drupal community.
Presentations
We welcome suggestions for presentations - even better, do you have a talk you'd like to give?
These are the topics we plan to cover:
Drupal For Developers
We are delighted to invite you to Drupal For Developers, an event focusing on using Drupal as a development framework. Whether you're evaluating Drupal or are already using it, this event is a great opportunity to learn from the experience of other developers, put your questions to experts, and connect with the Drupal community.
A full list of presentations will be finalised by the 18th of July, keep watching this space.

Drupal NW UK User Group - June 19th 2008
Following on from the announcement last month about http://www.anythingnorthy.com/, this month is going to be a theming night. We're going to start work on the theme basing it on the ideas of the group!
So bring along along your ideas, designs, images, complete themes if you like! but anything and everything related to a theme for our *n site
See you at MDDA Manchester as usual from 6pm, then onto the Old Monkey for light refreshments afterwards
Anyone want to meet early for food? Hopefully we can do better than a sandwich this time?
June meeting
Any thoughts as to when a June meeting might be held?
Can I vote for it not to be between the 11th to 19th when I'll be away.
Would hate to miss the first meeting after I joined the group.
Kind regards
Ian

January Meetup
Thanks to everyone who turned up on Wednesday, especially those who had quite a journey! It was a good night.
If you'd like to do a talk or have a topic you'd like someone else to talk about at the next meeting, please post something here to let us all know. I'm hoping to put together something about theming in Drupal 6, but other suggestions are more than welcome.
