[57north-discuss] Space Status, to members and others, Important.

[Andy Gaskell]

Hiya

Thanks Midder, great to have a thread to discuss this and get feedback and
thoughts.

I'd be keen to join for the viewing, be great to see the space.

This is probably a question for Tom, but looking at the PDF, it sounds like
it's the area noted as "Suite H" in the PDF, is that right do you think?

The car sharing scheme sounds good to me, I'd probably alternate between
cycling and driving, but if driving happy to do car sharing, and easy
enough to pick folk up on the way from here.

I suppose, to my mind, the main question is, how many people think that
moving temporarily to Bridge of Don would put them off being a member?

I've still been looking at places and adding them to the wiki page at
https://wiki.57north.org.uk/index.php/Possible_Future_Space but there is
not much within our budget really.  Some great places at £500p/m, but for
under £400p/m there are few options.  The one I added yesterday, 278 George
St is a good example of that, good space and location, but £500p/m.

Cheers
Andy
