Tonight there will be an ABUG General Session, at 7, on zoom. (General Sessions run on Tuesdays two or three times a month.)
Come and joins, to share the enjoyment we get from Acorn computing: things we bought, things we want, things we remember, things we've discovered, things we've learnt, things we've lost (but not things we've forgotten). Games, music, repairs and refurbishments, bargains found and overpriced items left well alone. Full attics and leaky sheds.
Acorn-related things, mostly, but we can talk about other things too.
For a flavour of a typical General session, see this previous thread.
For a bit of a heads-up nearer the time, subscribe to this thread using the spanner gadget below - I'll bump the thread beforehand.

Bump - tonight at 7, on zoom. General round table Acorn-centric discussion, as usual - no agenda, no prepared presentations, try to give everyone a chance to join in.

I remembered and I'm free! See you soon - might have to duck out for my dinner though!

I've just got home! Is it too late to request a login?

Thanks everyone for an interesting discussion. I think we had 18 or so people turn up. I'm trying to make the space to allow everyone (who wants to) to bring their thing to the table. I don't propose any kind of timetable or formal queue. But maybe we should give any one topic no more than 20 or 25 minutes, or something like that. My feeling is that opening a conversation is a better way to make sure everyone gets a chance, as opposed to requiring people to jump in or step up.
It's not that everyone necessarily has something to say, but I think everyone should have the space to contribute. I'm thinking of a round table, not a panel with an audience.
Anyhow, send me a DM in the meeting if you feel the need, and give me feedback here or in a PM about how these sessions are going.
