Brew & Byte

By Mac User

Welcome to the Podcasting home of The London Mac User Group. We are a voluntary organisation of users and enthusiasts of all things Apple in the London area. As well as our podcast we hold monthly meetings in central London on the second Monday of the month and periodically other events.
We have wanted to start a podcast for a while now and as the way we communicate has changed over the last few months, we thought why not!
