Birmingham.pm World Tour 2008 - MiltonKeynes.pm - 29th January 2008
The 2008 World Tour begins with Birmingham Perl Mongers visiting our friends the Milton Keynes Perl Mongers. This year the tour will be taking in a mixture of social and technical meetings, with the MiltonMilton.pm date being a social one, although hopefully we can arrange a technical one with them too later in the tour. All are welcome along, as always, to J.D Wetherspoon (201 Midsummer Boulevard, Milton Keynes, MK9 1EA) near both Milton Keynes Central train station and bus station. Some of us should be there from about 4pm, with the bulk of people arriving from 7pm onwards.

Background
In early 2006 Birmingham Perl Mongers took to the road to promote the 2006 YAPC::Europe Perl Conference, which we hosted at the end of August 2006. We took it upon ourselves to visit several Perl Monger groups around the UK, and proved extremely popular, with several groups asked to come back again, and others asking us to visit them too. In 2007 we visited both Perl Monger and Linux user groups, this time presenting at each groups technical meeting. For 2008 we hope to include several groups we never previous got to as well visiting some old friends.
