[Taslug] Future Hobart Meeting Changes

[Henry]

Hi Luggers,
I was thinking similar things to that of Phil.  If the Hobart meetings
were on a different day to that of Launceston, there would be the
possibility that the travel to attend a meeting at the other end of
the state becomes a real possibility.
