Wed 25 March 2020 - GG Virtual Session # 001.

In light of the restrictions imposed upon us because of the Covid 19 Pandemic, all GG sessions are suspended until further notice 😒. To keep together, as a group AND satisfy the "no more than 2 persons - 2 metres apart" rule we decided to see if we could master the techno-gremlins and hold a virtual session using the internet. Mark, having had some experience of this, set up a session for 10am Wednesday morning and SEVEN of us managed to get on line...! See Photo below .....

As some of you will be unable to join in with this virtual GG, I intend to write up a brief summary here each week. Obviously, a lot of this week's half hour time slot was taken up with "well...I can see you...can you hear me?" type conversations 😀 but we did manage to check that we were all doing ok and several people had phoned others within the group to inquire about their welfare. One thing that did become apparent was that, due to our forced social isolation, we were nearly all working out in the garden..! I am not sure if garden centres are still open but....how about we set up a plant swap scheme within the group..? Anyone who has too much of anything (NOT weeds!) can try and swap it with someone else within the group. Not sure how we could set this up but I am sure that there must be a way.

Mark has agreed to try and set up a half hour video session every Wednesday at 10am so please try and get along to join us. He has already sent out an e-mail explaining exactly what to do, please contact him if you didn't receive the details.

At this point in the blog I usually mention the weather....Today it is bright sunshine and light winds (and we are stuck indoors..Grrrr...😡)

Take care everyone as we are in uncharted waters. Stay safe...👍

Many thanks to Mark for taking the time and trouble to arrange all this...well done...!
