Hi All,<br>Apologies from me too for missing the
last meeting. I support the idea of separating from
the EM meeting, I think we've got enough interest in
SPM here in oz (and NZ Ashok!) to go solo, and I have
a slight feeling of being 'buried' in the EM
society at the moment. As to venues, both Shane's and
Tim's locations look palatable.<br>Tim - how 'grungy'
are we talking for Kioloa, it doesn't bother me (I've
heard good things about the colloids student conference
held there) but it might put some people off? - I
guess it depends on what level we pitch the conference
at?
