February meeting

Humph Hack told us about www.getitmade.com. It seems like a genuine and useful way of funding a product.
We had 2 new members, Geoff, a civil engineer, and Terry, who had lots of ideas. We listened to several of Terry's ideas. One of these wouldn't have worked, but the others had already been done successfully. We're hoping to hear some more of these next month. Geoff had brought a piece of high-tech paving slab material, from Charles, for the guys working on the Upton flood defense project to look at. Marcus showed us the latest plan for the flood defense barrier, which is now designed to automatically deploy itself, but is still a simple, low maintenance design.
The members present were me ( Dan ), Francis, Humph, Rick, Geoff, Malcolm, Terry, Maurice, Guy, Mike, Jed, Marcus.
