OK - The login for tomorrow's talk on Zoom is...

Meeting ID: 814 3683 7247
Passcode: 940031

If you are attending, usual Zoom rules. By all means chat when you arrive but once Mark starts his talk can you mute. Questions can be taken during his talk.

Something perhaps we can also discuss afterwards is around if we want to make it a regular thing. If so how often?

And that, of course, assumes we have enough people to share their thoughts, experiences and photos.

Mark and Mods -

A friend who can't make the Zoom talk tonight said to me "It would be great if the talks could be recorded and uploaded to the AN YouTube channel or made available to listen view on the website."

Don't know if this is possible but thought I'd pass on the suggestion....

Cheers, Neil

I much enjoyed the short time I was on.
Un-fortunately a domestic problem arose and I had to leave.
Better luck next time I hope.
