If I remember correctly from last time, you're 'typically-British-beverage-in-eternity', right? I've just sent you a contact request.

Well, the stars don't seem to smile on us at the moment. You could always try to start something later in the evening with Lauri, Hookbill and whoever is around and feels like dropping in... Otherwise, let's just try again in another month.

Indeed I am.

Well, talking with Hookbill is always fun; I'd be happy to do it even if there weren't any other Downers around. But I would love to actually do some reading this time; last time I was too late. I suppose that it is up to Hookbill now?

Sorry guys, but I'm not going to be able to do it - Internet problems are slowing Skype down to unreasonable levels. It won't let me do a call because of 'connection problems' and the text conversations are taking an age to go from keyboard to screen.

We'll just have to do it at a later date.

Do we have to wait a whole month?

No, of course not, the whole monthly thing only emerged because doing it too often would spoil the fun of it being something special.

I'd say it's always up to whoever is there and takes the iniative... so why not you?

Would have been great to have you with us, especially since you started all this in the first place... but I'm going to bed now (after a lovely little chat with TGEW), and I don't know whether something's going to happen later tonight or not; doesn't look like it at the moment.

So what about next weekend? 4th of July... Independence Day... The Scouring of the Shire? [/mad brainstorming]
