Be Excellent To Each Other

I'm a maybe - travelling today (arrive at 7, mind), so might just be settling in etc. from 8.

May also be a maybe our end, too. Not because of the footie, though.

We couldn't make it last night in the end, if anyone did then I hope a good evening was had!

We didn't have enough members to make a quorum, so we had a little chat and then went our separate ways.

Set something up for tonight - details in the usual place.

We should be there tonight

I am unlikely to be there tonight as I'm carousing in Redruth.

Twilight's shut, meht

Jem won't be at the next quiz on Tuesday -- I'll try and get on, although I'll be in Vegas at the time so depends on what else is going on at midday.

Morning everyone,

I've set up a space from 8 for those who want it.

Afraid I won't be on tonight but will be back next week.

Pretty sure I won't make this one - travelling this evening.

I'm waiting for Zoom updates to install. ... ........

Just because I have no-one else to tell, this was odd. I booked the 5pm bus, getting in at 8.20. UK time 4-7.20. Flixbus are very good at telling you of any updates - I got an email just for an automated seat reservation, and it updated the reservation in an app.
This time, I scanned the ticket into the app, thought nothing more of it. But that had at some point, maybe right at the beginning, moved me onto the 6.20 bus. Still said 5pm on the email and pdf, of course, but the app had me at 6.20, and no other emails.

Worried about it a bit, but I got on the bus fine. And I had my 9euro ticket as a backup so could have got the train.

TLDR: basically nothing happened. Aachen seems very pretty (yes, I hope to find it is aachingly so when it's light).

It's Tuesday, it might rain, so let's do this again from 8.

Will try and make this one, but Jem has 14 miles to run later and I'm feeling pretty knackered from flying home (sore arms lol) so we'll see.

Yes, let's do this tonight at 8!

Not sure I'll make this one, the signal down here is very patchy at best.

It was fab to see a lot of you again...

That kind of implies, 'but not ALL of you.'

Great to see you too, and thanks for scoring!

A lot were missing

Come to our weekly Tuesday Zoom to remind yourself that it's not actually Monday today!

Starts at 8!

Well. Some of you might have earned a bonus point.

Wonder if he broke out in hives?

Go to your room!!

In Kern's absence, I've posted details for this evening's fun and frolics in the usual place!

(at the end of the thread, obviously I can't edit the first post in the thread as Kern usually does)

I believe Kern is still on his holibobs this week, so I'll post a link at the end of the thread in the usual place shortly...

I am out for 10 weeks, I have swimming lessons on Tuesdays now..

How have you managed to compete in triathlons if you can't swim?

Thanks for sorting this Gaz, much appreciated!

How does Google Meet compare to Zoom?

Not quite as slick, but it does have (hilarious) automated captioning and some video filters that Malc was having enormous fun with on Tuesday

Hope you had a good holiday, dude

Tuesday again?

Let's do this at 8!

Details in the usual place.

Jem isn't likely to be online tonight as she's had something of a tiring day. Not 100% sure whether I'll be around yet.

I float well. More coaching than lessons.

If anyone fancies an evening of fun and chat to forget the economic disaster, I'll be on at 8 as usual.

I won't be on tonight, Mrs W and I have a dinner date with some friends.

Afraid I'm feeling pretty knackered so won't be on tonight. The link should work without me.

See you all next week.

Taekwondo overran and we’re also fucking knackered so I doubt we’ll be on, but we’ll see how we get on.

barely relevant to three people that turned up, never mind anyone else.

My soundbar is working for blue tooth connections, but not apparently through hdmi.

So it could be the cable, or the connector on the dock or the speaker itself.

I'm going to have "fun" finding out tomorrow

You're routing the quiz audio through your soundbar?

My laptop is connected to a docking station, which was connected to the soundbar via HDMI (pass through to one of my monitors)

I have now connected the monitor directly to the docking station, and have connected the laptop to the soundbar via bluetooth.

Your Official Pre-Cottage Warm-up Zoom call starts at 8 tonight!

See you there (I'll actually be online this time!)

How is (your) gif so accurate?

Morning everyone,

I'm still recovering from the Cottage so won't be on tonight but will set up a room later for anyone who wants to log on for the unofficial Cottage Afterparty.

Posted a link if anyone wants to make use of it tonight.

See you all next week.

".... recovering from the cottage.'

We’re both cream crackered too, going back to work fuckin’ sucks.

Normal service will resume next week.

I didn't have normal service last night. Logged in, chatted for a few mins, then everything froze on me, Zoom lost connection and couldn't reconnect. Then broadband problems for about an hour.

We hoped it was that. Obviously for the craic we said it was due to us being boring, but didn't believe it really. Much.
