"Lloyds sandbox" is just a harmless code testing page. Please do not link to this page as it will be empty most of the time. If it's not empty, I'm simply working on code over a few days. I'd rather test code here than make it look like total shit on a public page.

Suggestions for "New Member Orientation Class"

This is strictly just a rough draft of a list of general topic suggestions for the class. Please feel free to leave some out of the actual class. This is just a list of things I thought might be useful.

-> I might change this list as I give it more thought.
