The little red marker over
Portsmouth is conspicuous by its absence from this screen capture of Southern England’s WordPress Meetup groups,

The nearest monthly meetups at Brighton and Bournemouth are over 50 miles away.

Hopefully that will soon change when our application to have our meetup dues paid by the WordPress Community Support PBC is approved.
