I am starting a new Chat thread since the other got very long.

Please join us each Saturday for our Wordcraft Chat. They start at 12:00 noon Central Time (1800 GMT), give or take, and last about an hour. You can come and go as you please, of course, and we have no specific agenda. Once in awhile we do something fun, like have a costume party, and we're up for some more suggestions along those lines. I've also thought a language type guest (such as Ammon Shea) might be fun once in awhile.

We chat about whatever is on our minds and once in awhile words even enter our minds!

To enter our Chats, just click "Go" and then "Chat Rooms." It's a snap.

We hope to see lots of you there tomorrow!

Who's he?

And I will try to be there, although we are out all day today.

Ah yes, now I remember.

Please join us on the chat tomorrow. Same time, same station.

1800 BST (1700 GMT/UTC) I should be there.

I hope the chat this Saturday went well. I had forgotten to remind everyone, and Shu and I were out of town.

Tomorrow's the chat. Please join us at noon, CDT, or 1800, GMT. Directions are at the top of this thread. We'd love some newbies!

1800 BST; 1700, GMT.

Oh that's right. Sorry!

Tomorrow's the chat again...same time, same station. We'd love to see all of you there!

I will be at the Cubs' game...but tomorrow is the regular chat. Hope y'all'll have fun without me.

[After last week, it's probably a good thing I won't be there!]

Another Saturday, another chat. Please join us tomorrow at 12:00 noon, CDT, 1800, BST or 1700, GMT.

Hope to see everyone there! If you haven't joined us before, please see the directions at the top of this thread.

I've been trying to connect for the past 30 minutes but no joy, I fear. I suspect there's something amiss with Adobe on this system.

I'll definitely make the face-to-face chat in Columbus!

Yes, the chat kept saying, "Richard English is leaving the room." We were sure the ghost of Richard English was in the room.

It was a small group, but we had a nice time. Poor Shu was suffering from the "quitting smoking blues" so he got off early.

We're chatting right now (12:00 - 1:00 pm, CDT). Come join us!

Sorry I've not announced the chat recently. I've been out of town a lot and so busy and haven't been on the board much.

Don't forget about tomorrow's chat at 12:00 noon, CDT, or 17:00, GMT.

See you there!

If I can find a computer at the hotel in Cyprus, I will be there.

I hope to see a lot of you on the chat tomorrow!

Same time, same station. Check the top of the thread for times and directions.

See you there!

Once again, please join us for our chat tomorrow at 12:00 noon, CDT. If you are new to the chats, please check the top of this thread for the directions.

Sadly I won't be there tonight, nor, come to that, next weekend.

This weekend is the Dial Post steam rally and next weekend the Ardingly vintage vehicle rally. Neither finishes in time for me to be here at 1800 BST.

Come one, come all...to the chat tomorrow. Directions and times are on the top of this thread, and it will begin at 12:00 CDT. We'd love some of you newbies to join us.

As usual, tomorrow's the chat. Same time, same station.

We always welcome newbies. The directions and times (12:00 noon CDT) are at the top of this thread.

Unfortunately I was only able to be on the chat for 8 minutes. Jerry and Valentine were there, and we had some nice exchanges. Did anyone else join later?

I just missed you by a minute...

me too! By the time I got there, there were Richard, zmj, valentine, Jerry, and Bob, I think.

Wordmatic

Well, I should be there for longer than 8 minutes tomorrow!

Tomorrow is our regular Wordcraft chat, at 12:00 noon, CDT, and other times as posted on the top of this thread. See you there!

To all who were at Saturday's chat.

Please accept my apologies if I seemed impolite. I was unable, due to eye problems, to read the type used, due to both color and size. The main site's font size is fine so it may be because of the Etch-a-Sketch I use as a monitor.

And, as I told Kalleh, I misplaced my essential magnifying glass --- Murphy's Law at work.

Shu said he'd send you a PM, but just as you left I pointed out you can change the font size and color. It posted after you were gone.

if wordcraft chat is the 2008 model of Etch-a-Sketch, what'll they think of next ??

Some folks claim that with Etch-a-Sketch they could write the entire contents of the King James Virgen on the head of a pin ..... unquote

Anyone watching me trying to read the screen would have said I was unsightly.

Sory I missed it. I was at the Country Landowners' (CLA) game fair at Blenheim Palace until late.

Well we had 2 guesses, Richard, and they were both wrong. We thought you were either at a beer festival or a car show. We're sorry you weren't there, too.

Hopefully, proofreader, you'll be able to join us next week.

I have tried but, even though I'm generally experiencing less dificulty this year, I still can't get the chatroom to work.

We enjoy Country gatherings a great deal. It's a great shame that our present administration is so ignorant of the importance of Country matters.

And, once again, tomorrow is our regular chat. It begins at 12:00 CDT and directions and other time zones are at the top of this thread.

See ya'all there! [I am going to Nashville for a conference next week, so I am practicing. ]

Unless the boss says we have to go out somewhere, I intend to be there.

Correction to my last: the boss has decreed that we go out tonight to a classic motorcycle pub (such a shame!)

Um hmmm. Sounds just like your boss.

Tomorrow, once again, is our chat. Directions are above, and it will start at 12:00 noon, CDT.

And...tomorrow's the chat again. Time flies when you're having fun!

Same time, same place. The directions are at the top of this thread.

I hope to make it but can't be sure. We are out today and it might be that we decide to stay out for dinner.

See y'all tomorrow on the chat: 12:00 noon, CDT. The directions and other times for newbies are on the top of this thread.

Sorry. We had a flat tire and couldn't join the chat.

Tomorrow is our regular chat, scheduled at 1:00 pm, CDT. We should be there tomorrow, and I hope you will be too!

[Directions and other time zones available at the top of this thread.]

I won't be there as I am at my niece's birthday party.

Poor baby ! Did the dog eat your homework ?

It was the truth, Jer!

Tomorrow's the chat again, and we'd like to see everyone there! For the sake of newbies, it starts at 12:00, CDT, and directions and other times are at the top of this thread.

I missed yesterday, through inadvertence. Jerry and I had talked two hours earlier, and I kept the window open as I did other stuff, relying on the chimes to alert me.

I guess my session became stale, because the open window showed no activity when I closed it at 4pm.

We missed you, Val! It was a very nice chat.
