[wlug_org] Come and Get 'em (& DSE)

[Jamie Baddeley]

If you can provide an assurance that the local store manager has been
briefed, and we're not going in cold, then I can do Manners and
Featherston. Let me know when they're expecting us, and the names of the
contact people.

The flyers are bite sized A6 (i.e 1/4 A4). I'll post the flyer .PDF to
Jethro, who can put it on the website. It's 550Kbytes. The .pdf is A4
sized.

I'll post to the mainlist offering the remaining 125 to them for
distribution.

One question: Do Dymocks want say 50 of? (which would leave 75 for the
mainlist)

wlug_org people - any requests?
