Re: Zoom On-line talk on Tuesday

Hi Ian I would certainly be in favour of these virtual meetings continuing after Lockdown ends, for various reasons at the moment we are unable to attend branch meetings, and have found the three we have attended so far (including the Manchester one) great to get a c&s fix which we have been mi...

Re: Zoom On-line talk on Tuesday

Jakubs second half will be in May.

Eric - You need to download the zoom app for the ipad or PC and then when you launch it you need to click on join a meeting and input the details. I usually open up the meeting about 6.45

Hope to see you tomorrow

Re: PASSWORD for the On-line presentations

I am very seriously thinking of doing a monthly on-line talk to supplement Branch meetings for the very enthusiastic and to provide a benefit for members that cannot get to meetings. I also want to support those members who live overseas. We cannot afford to lose branches as they are so important bu...

Re: PASSWORD for the On-line presentations

I'm pleased that you enjoyed the talk. I also agree that branch meetings are best and lots of fun. I did not record the talk because the speaker didn't want it recorded. Most speakers do not want their talk recorded as it would mean that they could never give that talk again. Looking forward to the ...

Stuart Stuart, I sincerely hope that this emergency is over by next year but this is not certain. At the moment ...

Re: Letter to all members and friends

Ian you've said you're cancelling the AGM. Do you mean cancelled or postponed ? Sorry to be pedantic. If you did mean cancelled are we allowed NOT to have an AGM? Colin, Yes the AGM is cancelled but we will reschedule when HMG say that it is safe to hold a social gathering again. From what they are...
