I am speaking at the next PHP meetup in Portugal
As a long time organiser of PHP meetups in Cape Town, South Africa, I felt a need to organise something similar after moving to Portugal.
The first meetup had 4 people in total, including me and the speaker! So it is definitely in the bootstrapping phase.
This was quite a shock to me, but I have come to the realisation that I am starting from square one, in a new country, with a language that I have not yet mastered the basics of.
I am at a major disadvantage...
and the only way is up! ;)
Here is an example of one of my slides.
The talk is about some often unused functionality of PHP, whereby you can listen for incoming messages on a running script.
Here is a link to the meetup page, if you find yourself in the Maia / Porto area of Portugal at the end of February, please join me!

Hey, @shaunmza,
I've clicked "follow" so I can learn some more PHP from you... I'd visit your meet ups, but I'm a bit far away... Visiting will have to wait until I get my BHT (Ballistic Human Transport) technology perfected... ;)
BTW, Thanks for visiting my blog! Hope you found the Table of Contents... 😄😇😄

I did read your story on the cold, all I can say is you have stronger willpower than I ever will ;)
I dont see too much around development and PHP on steemit, maybe I can be the PHPioneer? ;)
Sounds like an excellent niche, my friend @shaunmza. Good luck!
