As promised, one last virtual forum meet
Monday 5th July at 7:30pm BST

Please sign up on this thread - priority will be given to anyone who hasn’t been before.

The capacity is 9 as there will also be a staff member and a co-host.
Zoom link will be sent nearer the time
 
I can highly recommend these virtual forum meets - they are great fun and its good to be able to put faces to names.!
 
I would like to join again if possible but understand you need to give priority to those who haven't been previously.xx
 
If there's space I'd love to join in again but please offer space to someone who hasn't attended before if needed 💖
 
Thanks everyone.
I will keep a list and those of you have been before will get a space if available.
That's 20:30 CET, right?
I'm not quite sure about speaking English :whistle:, but I would like to join please.
Yes it is 20:30 CET and we would love to meet you.
Your English is excellent so I wouldn’t worry about speaking it.

Thank you, but writing and speaking is not the same. But I'm looking forward to meeting you.
 
Yes, you guessed right. I live in Vienna and my native language is German.
I am originally from Australia, but I now live in Switzerland and speak passable German.
So if you need help with the odd word I am sure we can mange.
Even my kids who went to local school but were raised in an English speaking home still use German words when speaking English, and it's never a problem.

Good to know. :D
 
If there's a space I'd love to take part, but I have been to one before, so understand it's full already or you want to give the space to someone who's not yet had the chance of a virtual get together.
 
So far: All those who haven't been to a meet are on the list.
There are 2 spaces left and 5 on the waiting list.

I'm sticking to 12 as too many people makes proper conversation difficult.

If the waiting list continues to grow and / or more 1st timers want to join then I will plan another one for summer sometime.

It's good that people want to meet each other ( and the piggies!)
 
If it's the last one... I might want to try and join it?

I'm really shy in general though, and I haven't spoken to anyone in English like... ever. I've had a few chances to do it but in the end I never did it because I'm really shy about it and self-conscious about my accent.
Also I don't have piggies to join with me at the moment :hmm:
 
Sorry for double posting! Just remembered something and I can't edit it anymore:
At what time do the meetings usually end? Later on mondays (at 21:30 BST) I have a tradition of watching a local tv program with my mum!

Just asking because if they're longer than that maybe it's better if someone else joins to enjoy it to it's fullest.

Do join if you can. I won't be at home when the meeting takes place, so I won't have piggies either.
Obviously it is a shame you won't all be able to see Ruby nipping me....
There is no real formula - some people share their piggies, and some don't.
Some people talk a lot and some don't.
It's pretty relaxed.
