vGTG is on tonight, zoom link to follow at some stage this morning. If you’d like to attend for the first time please drop me a PM.
I suppose I could make a dent in this lot collected from Sadlers Brewery in Lye, Stourbridge just after Christmas ...

I`m out socialising earlier in the evening, I`ll try to make an appearance but might be quite tired.
Another very enjoyable vGTG. Thanks all.
Just to emphasise these fortnightly events are open to anyone who wants to join. Tonight’s “newbie” was FrankyFourFingers…..it’s always great to put a face to a ‘virtual’ friend!
Enjoyed last night guys!

Sorry I missed you all last night, exhausted from travelling and fell asleep. Look forward to being awake for next one.
Sorry all I'm at a (virtual) conference tomorrow night - can we postpone for a week? [Alternatively go ahead without me and sing my praises / slag me off in my absence!]
No show without Punch - I'm happy to postpone.
Yeah shame to postpone as I’m free this week but next week should be fine too

Thanks chaps. I shall wear a watch and raise a glass (cup of tea) to think of you.
Works for me.

Works better for me

The vGTG will be on again this Thursday, invitations to follow tomorrow. Unless covid spoils the fun….our youngest daughter has it again!
I`ll join in this time, my regular early Thursday evening pub visit is cancelled this week.

See you all Thursday evening.
It's a great opportunity to meet folks, very light-hearted banter is the order of the evening.
Invitations sent. PM me if you'd like to join and don't have an invitation!
Looking forward to joining this time - been a while for me!
Apologies; I had to work till late; fingers crossed for the next one.
Sorry folks - not a great evening for me, will be along next time.

Great time as usual, thanks for organising Kirk

I should be there next time. Good way to keep in touch. Should the frequency be changed now that “Covid has been done?” ( though still seems like 100s are dying per day within 28d of contracting it) - sorry redact that last sentence as irrelevant.

I’m happy to go with the popular view re: frequency, recently I’ve not been able to make every two weeks in any case.
Now that I’m PCR positive I can confirm that my covid symptoms are very similar to the after effects of consuming copious amounts of cider and Ardbeg at a vGTG, or the day after you watch a terrible United performance whilst drinking a bottle of red wine.
Funny that.
Whatever happens in the real world, I hope that the vGtG Zoom meetings continue.
As our analogue social lives expand, there may be at some stage a case for lengthening the period between Zooms, but I would be happy to pledge my support for at least one virtual GtG per month. We can't all pop in on the tram to the fun-packed meets in our chosen venues, and it is great to meet with the further-flung TZ members, even if just virtual.
Me too Alec. It would be great to carry on in any capacity

Once a month is a bare minimum. Otherwise the whole vGTG would just be looking at all the watches Martyn and Shoppy have bought in the intervening period!

Youngest Daughter is brand new. I’m just gutted I can’t watch the older two play football today, apparently the middle daughter just scored!
I’ll feel better if United women beat Arsenal women and make up the mens’ poor performance last night!
Hope that you feel better Kirk; I finally got Cv19 after managing to avoid for two years. Out for 13 days still feeling the after affects now. It would be great to see you all in person but also enjoy the vGTGs.
Hopefully you suffer no further symptoms; my fist few days felt like a terrible port hangover.
As for watches been good so far this year only purchased 4:)
Glad you’re on the mend Kirk.
I’d like them to continue, they’re good fun.
Good to carry on, no hardship every couple of weeks & always a good laugh.
Keeping them going, either once a month or two weeks.
every two weeks works well think
