Like Steve, I'd also prefer a "real" meeting.
From what I can glean from the near-constant barrage of conflicting
information, I believe the possible rule changes may mean it would have to take
place at a venue which does food and can also provide outside facilities to
ensure that social distancing can take place.

My thoughts are that I would much rather have a meeting face to face and that
will probably be much easier by July 4th when it’s likely pubs will be open
again and the social distance will be cut to 1 metre.
Meanwhile as I don’t do the tech stuff I would have to rely on Tina who has
just come out of hospital after a major operation and needs complete rest for
the next 2 weeks so wouldn’t be involved in the test next Monday.

Np.
Once we have all agreed a time and date, will schedule a meeting, but would
like to get a test one setup for this Monday? Does that work? Let’s say
19:30..... will send the link to this mail chat system. If anyone has any
queries, do get in touch....

Thanks all.
I've used Zoom myself, as a participant rather than an organiser, but didn't
realise it worked well for groups as big as 20, so that should be ok for us
then. As Simon says, it's very easy to set up & use.
If we can do a group that big we may as well just hold the meeting that way, as
we still don't know what the future holds.
Tony: Thanks for volunteering 😉
Could you have a look at setting this up for a trial run please?
Next question is when would we all be around to do a Zoom chat?
As we used to have our meetings on a Monday evening, can I suggest that for
this? Maybe Monday 29th June, or 5th July.
What would be the best time? 7 or 7.30pm?
Cheers,
Andy

We use Skype at work but I am not sure if it is free?
I have used zoom before for a meeting at the De La Warr, though only as an
attendee, not an organiser.
It was very easy to install and use - most people attending, around 20 or so,
had no IT knowledge to speak of and managed to install or their device, run,
attend and contribute so it would be fine I think. You could even have a hybrid
meeting as Ralph suggested but you may not all want to crowd round one laptop
or phone?
Not great security wise but for what we are discussing and as long as we all
know that, it would be fine I think.

Andy,
I’ve used Zoom for family meetings around the world without any issues, if we
run over the 40 minutes, we can get round that by scheduling several meetings
one after the other.... very simple and straightforward... account creation is
free, but you don’t have to have an account to join a meeting, whoever
schedules the meeting simply sends out a link on email..... would be worth
setting up a test meeting.
Requirements for computers are: anything that has a microphone and optionally a
webcam ( you can join with voice only) so phones, iPads, laptops, pc’s or
webcam relies all work very well with it...
( bugger, did I just volunteer???? 🤣)

Don’t shoot me for suggesting. We could do both. An outside social distance
meet, with those not wishing to attend on a live feed to a laptop in the
middle. Sounds more complicated I guess.

Simon: Which online meeting system do you use for work? Is it just audio, or
video too? We'd need it to work for approx a dozen people.
I'm happy to go down that route, for the reasons you mentioned, so we need to
explore potential online options.
So, if anyone has any ideas please say.
Don't forget Zoom is limited to around 40 minutes without paying for it, so
that's out, unless someone has an account already?
Thanks,

Would not an on-line meeting be in order?
This gets round all of the issues of safety etc. and works very well in
my experience. We use it at work all the time and I think we have more
communication now than we did when we were physically together in the
building, at least on the team I work with.
Like you say, who knows what will be sanctioned in July and if the
consensus is to remain cautious, all our experience of the recent
broadcast will be forgotten and lost. It is already quite some time
since we finished so an early meeting is preferable in my view.
Simon.

Broadly speaking yes although since what Boris decides will probably be
him making stuff up to suite whatever Cummings wants to do that
weekend (plus his track record on making the right decisions is pretty
woeful), I won't be taking much heed of whatever he says.
Instead I'll make my own call closer to the time as to whether it seems
like a wise idea or not. My feeling right now it's it still too soon
but we'll see.
Rgs,
Jon.

Hi all,
As Boris still isn't allowing us the chance to meet up in person, I
propose that we wait & see what he decides to do from July 4th. I
believe this is the next date when things may change, so hopefully
we'll be able to get together after that.
If it's still not allowed from 4th July, I think we'll have to come
up with some other way of chatting about the broadcast. I don't want
to leave it too long.
Are you all happy with that?
In the meantime have a think about what you'd like to mention: what
went well, what didn't, what we've learned from the broadcast & what
we can use for an FM broadcast etc etc.
Cheers,
Andy
