I hope to be there, but I may be a bit late. With the warm weather and longer evening sunshine, I'll probably be tempted to sit out later at one of the street cafés watching the lorries speed past.

Just to be pre-emptive: I must have some sort of cut-off point....2 AM Oslo time at the latest for me. No problems there, Thor. In my old age I usually feel like going to bed around midnight, even at weekends. Then I get up at 7 o'clock on Sundays and walk into town for the newspaper. I am now officially old. And how I laughed at the satirical publication (crass comic) "Viz" when in my student days I read in their "Top Tips" page - "Pretend you're an old-age pensioner by getting up on Sundays at 7 o'clock and walking into town for the newspaper".

That was a good one Thor. Thanks. But why were there only three of us left at the bar at the end? Are we so scary/boring that everyone flees from us? Speak up those who abandoneth us - you know who you are. And, so do we.

Speak up those who abandoneth us - you know who you are. And, so do we. I was hoping that you would carry on the ongoing conversation when the final session started rather than wonder why I left. The session-ending break seemed like a convenient moment to stop. It was an enjoyable chat. Thanks all. (If you were thinking of someone else just ignore my comments above.)

It was a plural you, Bairn. So I was including you (singular) in my finger-pointing. You just got fed up with us, didn't you? It was only 5 o'clock in the morning in Falkirk. No excuse for "going to bed".

Agreed. Great meeting. Thanks for hosting Thor! It was great seeing everyone and I am looking forward to the next meeting.

I'm back, after a 3-month absence (due to various reasons). Well, sorta back, anyway. Won't be back in full messageboard mode until at least another month or so, but I aim to host another Cheers chat this coming Saturday -- from a remote island here in Denmark, of all places. Hope to see you there! SATURDAY, AUGUST 27, at 21:00 (9PM) Norway/Denmark time. Link will follow later. Get your beverages ready!  Not that the world revolves around me, but I might be away next weekend. Pity if I miss the next session after such a long time. If I can't be there in person, I will send my fridge stacked with beer.

Any takers for the chat tonight, here from FSM? Unfortunately, I can't make it. Things are crazy at work and it has crept into the weekend. If I can make enough progress I will try and join one of the later sessions. In the meantime, knock back a few for me.
