Re: TLUG Tsukuba Branch nomikai

Ahaaaaa, so there IS a Tsukuba branch. :-)

One additional note to anyone coming up the Joban line, if you continue past
Ushiku-eki one more stop to Hitachi-no-Ushiku-eki, the bus ride to Tsukuba
center takes 1/3 the time.

I'll try to make it - hope to see some of you on Thurs.
