[ELECTRON] Proposed new club + Arduino meet up

Sun Jan 15 13:48:41 UTC 2012

Keiren, I am probably being really stupid here, but I'm trying to put up
the photo I have of the first cut being made, but I can't actually figure
out how to make a post and I can't edit the post that you've already made
to stick the photo in.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Tom
