Hope you have all had a pleasant summer. We are back with a whole lot of geeky goodness following a break in August. Our headline speaker will be Mandy Waite who will do a talk about some of the serious engineering that goes on at Google. The event will be compered by Sanderson Jones and accompanied by tons of beer and pizza. More supporting talks will be announced next week.

In addition, we are a team of generalising specialists, ready at the drop of a hat to refine an algorithm, write a tricky integration test, tune a SQL query, or discuss feature nuances with a product manager.
