[wellylug] Mandrake Donation to WLUG

[Lindsay Hunter]

Let me have four copies and I will package three for the Library, present
them with one as a sample, with two addtionals if we can agree on an
approach.  I am at 470 Evans Bay Parade, and will come and get them if that
helps.

I'd rather have it passed along to someone else as I'm flat tack packing at
the moment and may be offline for a few days in the coming week. I'm just
trying to think of the easiest way to get a few of the CDs to someone, but
am at a loss how to do this.
Perhaps someone can email me their postal address and I'll post a stack of
the CDs to you?

Cheers

Jamie
