Another vGTG tomorrow? We can celebrate the Kirk280 household being free from covid!
I’ll send the zoom details at some point during the day tomorrow. PM me if you’d like to join us for the first time.
^^^ Sounds good to me. Although I will be late.
Glad you have all recovered.
I hope Simon has also recovered from his Port hangover like covid experience.
Last remnants of Christmas beer in the fridge ready for tonight

Invitations sent. If you haven't received one and would like to attend please PM me.
You will need: a computer & camera (or a tablet / ipad), a beverage or five of your choice, and a watch (or five).
Watches optional.
Sorry all - in the Caribbean Mon.

You are Geoffrey Cox and I claim my double standard salary.
This is the book I couldn’t find last night

Another great vGTG last night chaps, and nice to meet Tokyo Tokei for the first time!
Thank you gentlemen for your warm welcome and amiable discourse. It was nerve racking a rare pleasure
TT
And thank you Paul for what I found to be an eye-opening appraisal of the watch-buying scene in Japan.
It's great when the TZvGtG enable personalities to be ascribed to usernames.
Sounds like I missed a good session, I was socialising in the early evening and arrived home too late to join in.
Another vGTG tomorrow? Note that I’ll have to leave early to give my Dad a lift home from a reunion do, and I’m not in a particularly chatty mood due to the state of the world at the moment (!)
Wife’s birthday tomorrow so it wouldn’t be a good idea if I join you guys!
Enjoy
There's not much happened since the last one - would we have anything to talk about?
I can be there this week or next - happy to go with the group consensus
z
Next week is better for me but happy to go with the flow?

I’ll need to leave ca. 9pm tonight, but I’ll assign the zoom to those staying on if we want to proceed? Or do it next week? (I can’t guarantee I’ll be chatty then either!). Or we do both weeks?!
Happy to go with the consensus.
I would rather have you on board for the duration Kirk, so maybe next week?
OK Alec, thanks for making the decision! Next week it is, best regards to everyone in the meantime.
Cheers Kirk catch up next week
That’s one I can join this week I hope, look forward to seeing you all

Sorry if this has been addressed, but what are the criteria to get into these sessions?
Is there a formal format?
Anyone welcome who is a forum member - you don’t have to fill any forms in or prove who you are!
starts at 8:00pm on a Thursday ends when everyone has left the call (which Thursday seems to move almost randomly but mostly bi-weekly).
Just send a PM to Kirk280, who will send you a link with the zoom details. You’d be most welcome. Please come along and open a couple of cans or a glass or two (or both) of your favourite beverage.

Hotel wifi has died, FFS.

Was out and about and saw the invitation too late.
Next time.
Sorry I missed it I was driving as I went to a job interview of all things and it massively over ran

Well that was a quick fortnight.....there will be another vGTG tomorrow night, invitations to follow at some tomorrow. And I will show off my new watch! (There will be no prizes for guessing what it is )
I might be late.

I will be late!.

Another great vGTG. But I went for a wee and came back to find most people had left. Was my bladder that full?!
It always amazes me the breadth of subjects we cover in a few hours.
Note to self: at future vGTGs do not mix beer, cider and wine.
Woodacre is sorting out a real GTG venue, Preston area. Details to follow in due course.
Thanks for an enjoyable few hours!.

Sorry to have missed it but had a rubbish day and felt worse. I wouldn't have made good company. Looking forward to a potential v-GTG IRL.
Good ol’ Woodacre1983 has found us a private venue for an in-person, real life GTG!
Date: 24 April 2022
Time: 12-4pm
Location: near Preston centre
Whilst not as convenient (for me!) as a central Manchester location the fact it’s a trusted, secure venue means it’s worth a trip out.
If “down South” folk want to make a weekend of it then partners are very welcome, obviously.
Details to follow via PM in the coming days.
Edit: to preempt Unclealec’s questions - yes I’ll probably drive, and yes you can have a lift!

We are due another vGTG tonight but I need to visit my Dad so might be late joining. I’ll start you off though. I don’t want to postpone as I can’t do next week, and we need to firm up the real GTG details.
Zoom invites sent. Let me know if I’ve missed you out by mistake or you’d like to attend for the first time.
