This is exactly the sort of attitude that makes me want to throw the whole
thing in and not bother with Linux or the LUG any longer.
Rather than offer constructive advice all this does is offer destructive
criticism.

Given this feeling I will most likely only turn up for about 5-10 minutes
tonight to take care of a couple of things then I'll go home. (Or
alternatively if the 2 people (Plaz and Jeremy) that I need to catch up
with tonight can meet up with me some other time then that would be
great).

If anyone wants to actually offer some _help_ with Linux then feel free to
offer any advice, pointers etc. (prefeably off-list as I am probably going
to unsubscribe this evening) but if this is the attitude then perhaps I
need to look elsewhere.
