Tokyo, got the hell out of China!

Should have been on a plane last night marking exams before depositing them in a lockup and forgetting about them  for 5 days!

Ah I miss Tokyo. Was there in the fallow year. Car vending machines, covering tattoos for onsen, umbrella parks, underground car network, hot and cold coffee cans, hot face cloths in restaurants, restaurants that only serve one type of food, shared toilet shoes that are not big enough for Gaijin, hotel pajamas etc etc.

Just to give this a bump and to ask, for everyone like myself who is unsure, how is this going to work again?

Myself and HMV are keen to show our faces.  Can't promise you sobriety though!

There’s a link in the OP. If you already have zoom installed it will auto open the app and you will be taken to the room where you put in the password. If you don’t have the software installed the same link will take you to a webpage to download. 
 

When you arrive in the room you’ll have an option to join with audio and will have to activate your camera too. 
 

There’s also an option to change your screen name. Most people will be using their forum names hopefully.

Mate get some cider in yer! I’m having a gin 😊

[Crazyfool01]

Sounds like it’s time to crack the alcohol open then !! Got my fan going ... too bloody hot out there ... plenty of ice 

[Crazyfool01]

1 hour to go ... who’s thinking of lurking ?  

[vintagelaureate]

I will be on when I can, I will leave it running no matter what but it's prime time for getting my youngest in the bath!

[MrZigster]

Aww this will be the first meet I've missed since I started going to them.

I'm already missing the idea of meeting you all again. Hope you all have fun.

I think it would be too painful to just lurk. Especially as this is a dry house at the moment.

Think I'm going to try to find some shade in The Cinema Tent (i.e. I'm going to watch a movie).

Love & Peace

Pretty much yeah. No camera or mic or smartphone so would feel too much like a bit of a (way too sober) stalker I think.

[Sasperella]
