I'm afraid it'll get rather late for me then, unless we make it a quickie - say till 01.00 GMT at the latest; but you can always go on without me, of course.

If we were going to do something, who would be involved?

EDIT: Are Pitchwife and Hookbill the only ones who would be able to do it now?

At the moment it looks like you, me and Hookbill, and possibly Legate, too. TM said he'd have time today, but I've no idea how to contact him on Skype.

I don't have Legate on Skype, so just add me to your conversation. I'll try and record some of it if you like. Not sure if it will work, though. I may have to experiment.

Is anybody friends with The Might? I'm not. I don't know if you and I are contacts.

As I said, I'm picking Lauri up from the airport in about two hours, I could do it before then, but then I'd have to leave and come back.

EDIT: Every time I post, Hookbill has posted while I was posting.

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?

Hookbill the Goomba · 06-27-2010, 03:19 PM

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.

The Might · 06-27-2010, 03:20 PM

Just got your message Pitch, I'd be up for it as well
EDIT: xed with Hookbill, guess we're too few then.

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 06-27-2010, 03:33 PM

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

Do we have to wait a whole month?

Legate of Amon Lanc · 06-27-2010, 02:29 PM

Alas! I don't think I can participate today. Very sorry, but... tired, getting up early tomorrow, everything... not able to focus very well at the moment. Hope to be able to participate later, though... although the holidays might shuffle things a bit now... but anyway, at most in September

That's too bad.

So, is something happening right now? I'm still a bit confused.

Not really, apart from Hookbill and me having a little text chat.
