Hi all,

The next Python Sheffield meeting is only two days away on Tuesday July 26th
at the GIST Lab. The meeting will run from 19:00 - 21:00, although doors
will be open at the GIST Lab from 18:30. The GIST Lab is located opposite
Sheffield train station and behind the Showroom cinema:

This month we're having a coding session, where we'll be attempting to
recreate the old Atari game Breakout using PyGame. There'll be an
introductory talk on PyGame, cheat sheets will be provided, then we'll get
down to some coding in pairs. The pairs will be arranged between more
experienced PyGame users and less experienced ones, so don't worry if you're
not very familiar with PyGame. Try and bring along a laptop with Python and
PyGame installed. PyGame can be downloaded from here:

Last month we had 20 attendees and this month we have 7 people registered so
far. If you'd like to join us and you haven't registered yet, please do so
at:

We're always looking for future speakers, so if you'd like to talk on
anything Python related and fancy a trip to Sheffield, please get in touch.
The Python Sheffield group is open to all levels of Python user, including
those who don't currently know the language, but would like to learn. More
information can be found on the group by following @pysheff on Twitter, or
from the Google group:
