DrupalCamp Bristol 2015
We are hoping to start up the discussion around a Drupal Camp for Bristol and the West at the next social this Wednesday.
This post is just a holding place for initial subsequent comments, links, etc. I will do my best to take some notes from the meetup and post them here.
I guess rough planned timings, possible venues etc. will be the first thoughts, it looks like some thought has already started on this :)
Watch this space.....

2014 and Drupal
At the last meetup of 2013 we talked about doing more with Drupal 8 in the New Year. Since we are now IN the New Year we best live up to our 'New Year's resolution' and get down and dirty with Drupal 8!
For those Hardcore Drupal Devs amongst us you may want to skip to the next paragraph....
Some of us are keen to discover Backdrop CMS and see what this Drupal fork has in store for site builders :-)

Hi, we're meeting up again this Thursday and have a few items lined up.
Presentation
Andrew MacPherson is our Special Guest and he will talk/present about the Drupal 8 field UI API and associated modules. We're planning to broadcast and record the talk with Google Hangout so it can be shared with the community.
Please get in touch if you're working on a cool project or subject that you'd like to share with us and be our Special Guest. Just a talk is fine but if you have a presentation that would be great too.

Christmas meal
Since Chris has been sorting everything recently, I said I'd organise the christmas meal, providing there is enough interest.
Last year at the Urban Wood - with drinks before and after and zero degrees and the gryphon, respectively - was a resounding success, if I do (as the organiser) say so myself.
Anyway. Who is up for this? Suggestions for venue? Gotta be really cheap? Dont care? Can only come for a drink before/after? Dates?
The most important question is: are you interested? Then I'll have a think about where can accommodate us.
