From July, 1999, the SSI Computer Buddy Project provided one-to-one help to beginners, and over 300 students were assisted. Some of the helpers became Club members in the year 2000, the first club meeting being held in September 2000 in the Graham Hills Building, 40 George Street, Glasgow.
 
Membership of the Club requires membership of the 3Ls Student Association, and all prospective members should have enrolled on one of the courses run by the Senior Studies Institute.

Val's Poem
 

She’s gone!

 

The computer swallowed grandma.
Yes, honestly it’s true!  
She pressed 'control and enter'  
And disappeared from view.

It devoured her completely,
The thought just makes me squirm.
She must have caught a virus
Or been eaten by a worm.  

I've searched through the recycle bin
And files of every kind;
I've even used the Internet,  
But nothing did I find.  

In desperation, I asked Jeeves     
My searches to refine.  
The reply from him was negative,
Not a thing was found 'online.'     

So, if inside your 'Inbox'
My Grandma you should see,  
Please 'Copy, Scan' and 'Paste' her
And send her back to me.
