The GIG is on!

Hello all!
Well the GIG is certainly on. Paul Curley has set up a facebook page:
http://www.facebook.com/groups/GothenburgsIrishGroup/
and the mighty Niall O´Connor has set up an email list and a website/blogg:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/gothenburg-irish-group
http://gothenburgirishgroup.blogspot.se/

If you have not signed up to the email list you should only get this email once from me. I am sending direct to the email addresses I have too as a reminder about the email list. Forward please to any people whom you think may be interested too.

I am sending, well I won´t call it a newsletter, but it is a summary of the posts on the facebook page since it started. GIG could have a monthly summary like this. Does not take long to put together.
