from which you can see that I run an eggdrop bot which is checked every hour to see if its running, and if not to start it up.
And that every 3 days I run spamassassin learn on my spam mailbox. -----

Maidstone social meeting

On the second Friday of each month, Kent lug will be holding a social meeting at the 'British Queen' near to Square Hill Road in Maidstone[http://www.streetmap.co.uk/newmap.srf?x=576737&y=155704&z=0&ar=Y]. We will be meeting in the back room [outside if the weather is nice enough] where its possible to have a conversation without being drowned out by others, and neither being kippered by the smokers. Our March meeting was very pleasant with good food reasonably priced and good beer also at a reasonable price. The conversation ranged over favourite distro, and favourite editor, to the Reiser murder case and the quality of the beer! And as its a Shepherd Neame pub the beer quality was high! A quick straw poll indicated that we've now found our social meeting 'home' and this is where we'll be meeting for the foreseeable future. -----
