These talks are very informative and I am extremely grateful that you take your time to give them to us. But you tell us of all the things that your tablet/laptop/phone/TV can do but not how to do it. I know we can go along to Spire Cafe or St Wilfrids but I think it would be very busy. Perhaps you could go into more detail of how to do something on the day of the talk.
Review of ‘ More than just a telly’
At the talk, if an audience member asks a question, could Liam repeat it so that the rest of the audience can hear it?
I was pleased that this topic was covered.
