[Urban-Media] Film on Tuesday

[eric lewis beverley]

Friends~

Should we have a reasonably small group, the friendly confines of the  
Bacon Hill annexe are at our service.  Delivery food can also be  
arranged if we so desire.  When you get a chance, please drop a line  
to the list and let us know if you plan to attend and if you would  
like to bring any guests along so that we can sort out the venue.   
Hope to see you on Tuesday evening.

Eric
