Just a thought, we haven't had a video chat for a while. We did have a bit of a problem with the last one that I hosted, It turned out that out of seven that said they'd be there, only Lutz and myself showed up. Remember, Lutz stayed up very late to talk with others and no one else showed. I know that Big Blue is part of a hobby and we're pleased that everyone takes the time to participate here. Getting together by video is a plus, but we sometimes all have more important things that takes precedent, just that it would be nice if we could set aside the time we agreed to.
So, do we arrange a video chat one of these evenings, or even earlier to accommodate those not living in North America? If so, would someone else like to host it? I am willing to give it another shot. If you are, then post something here about a time that would work best for you and see if we can't get another chat going. With vacations coming up, that may not happen until the fall, but let's start talking about it now.

I certainly wouldn't object to another get together but as you mentioned with vacation and summer activities times can be limited. In my case my great-grandkids are just getting into summer sports and I generally don't get a schedule for the week until Sunday or Monday. Most of the activities are late afternoon/early evening as the parents have to do that silly work thing. I would be happy to participate depending on my family's schedules.

Things are slowing here a bit and I would enjoy a chat once again. I know it has been a while.

Would like that too, just that I'm scheduled for surgery on Tuesday, overnight in the hospital and not sure how mobile I'll be for a bit after coming home. Let's just say that this week is out for me, probably next week should work.

I wouldn't mind joining in, too, if, of course, I can remember how to do so.
My best wishes for you Don, on your Tuesday excursion.
Cheers,
Wayne
