What do I need? - just a micro-phone and some head phones(in ear phones work fine) and a free Signal account. Using headphones or earphone reduces 'echo' on the call. Video is optional, but a most of us will be on video as well.
Who - Serious organiser users only. We are no longer able to allow just anyone to join these chats due to the disruption caused by fake profiles on previous chats. You also need to be known to us in some way or other before we will permit you to join the chat.
If you need any assistance setting up Signal, please pop a comment in this post and I will try and help you get one line. Signal is free for computer to computer calls....
Hope to be chatting with you on Saturday 18 & Sunday 19 April 2026.
Or Saturday 18th and Sunday 19th ...
ReplyDeleteWhat does it say on your diary inserts...?
DeleteWhat about 18ᵗʰ and 19ᵗʰ? That took me twenty minutes of research.

In the original post the dates were wrong. Hence my original comment. The dates have now been corrected, so no further answers here required ...
DeleteI did correct the dates soon after the post was published, I can only assume that there is a cache somewhere that didn’t update for a while. But now displaying ok.

Somerset 4:12 pm
Having lived in Somerset, I know it can be perceived as being a little behind the time. Jacob Rees-Mogg doesn't help.

We all know Reading is 'special' but wasn't 'Railway Time' introduced to England in 1840?

Some while before the Filofax years!
Or have I fallen for click-bait? Surely not, Steve...
You've also got it the wrong way round. Anyone in Somerset joining at 4:12 local time would be 24 mins late!
