mjmooney Posted March 23, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted March 23, 2020 I'm glad we get on well with our neighbours. Not so much for doing each other favours (although it may yet come to that), just for a bit of 'safe socialising'. With the weather currently pretty pleasant (I know that can't last in this country), we're out in the back garden a lot - and we have neighbours on three sides, all of whom are nice folks we get on well with, so we get some conversation without resorting to screens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought maybe if I take him out of his shell, the weight loss and streamlining will make him even faster. But it actually made him more sluggish. You've lowered your standards, Tony.

Watched one last night on Facebook from one of my local favourites, Rachel Laven (a Texas lass currently living in Leeds). Bunged her a tenner on PayPal (there were thirty-odd people in the remote 'audience', so I hope they did the same). Support your local musicians if you get the chance.

I get that in normal times but right now it should f*** the F*** off People putting on free 'live' on line gigs is pretty cool and nothing beats a live gig even if it's on line. Can everybody post in here what they know of that up coming, regardless of what it is or what genre? It will give everybody a chance to check in and watch/listen.

mjmooney Posted March 23, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted March 23, 2020 We did our usual Monday pub quiz tonight. Questions sent out and answers returned by email. Cheating would be easy, but there wouldn't be much point, as there are no prizes. Our team deliberated via WhatsApp. We came second. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is as good a name as any! Never used it but the jist was definitely online poker where you could see everyone's face 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
