Hi Graham
At the next MelbJVM meetup \
(http://www.meetup.com/Melbourne-Java-JVM-Users-Group/events/140852482/) we are going \
to do a Lambda workshop. This is based on the Lambda programming lab given at \
JavaOne by Stuart Marks, Simon Ritter, Angela Caceido and Maurice Naufalin. \

I'll also take a look at yours and see what we can incorporate.
Thank you for sharing.
