Yeah, like were going to be allowed to meet up in large groups once the coronavirus outbreak starts...
I'm a prophet.

Heed my words! Heed them!

We can always host a digital meetup for the time being, using Houseparty or whatever. Could be fun, slap together a gaming quiz or something?

Oh look, something I might actually be able to attend for once.

I'll still say I'm attending and then not show up.

I had thought about starting a weekly movie night with Netflix Party for the forum. Maybe we could incorporate that into this as well.

I'd actually be up for that, more or less. I've been doing something similar with my brother. With cinemas closed down, we've been watching online films together. Mostly Netflixk, but other streaming services have also been used. Never heard of Netflix party, and I'll refrain from installing more 3rd party plug-ins, but I never talk (or type in this case), during a film anyway. Mu brother and I use Discord to discuss the film afterwards. Maybe start a new thread?

That said.. My weekend evenings are reserved for my own weekly movie nights already. So it depends a bit on which day and / or what time.

Well well well. Did not expect THIS to spring up out of the thread but I whole heartedly support it as absolutely awesome!! Forum socials are bloody perfect for a lockdown!! Let's take this forward for an n-e covid-19 lockdown titnernet socials ideas threads? obvs lots of us and lots of diff events fracture us but i like the idea of accessibility in a netflix weekly film club or so etc.

If i get motivation or a bettwr host I have been contemplating getting some Mafia back in order at some point too...

Nothing to do with this; but having seen a few of us recently celebrating this photo(5 years old!) on fb and it being such a classic I thought why not post it up here too;

That was five years ago?! Jeez.

IIRC, me and @MoogleViper travelled down from Nottingham for that shortly after he moved here for the first time. It was the day Rez drew pictures of dicks (I think?) and handed them to random passers by and when those idiot kids kept losing their frisbee in the same tree. We then played Ninja with them and Sam creeped a girl out.

Ah ok. So. It's Hyde Park but some kids got their frisbee stuck in a tree. @Goafer had a great fb caption the other day when it popped back up in all the memories so I'll ask him to post his explanation.

However I can name the members who ARE in the picture somewhere;

Me(Rummy), mr-paul, (a hidden) Cube, Shorty, MoogleViper, ReZ, Goron_3, Jimbob, THE legendary Host himself Zell, Sheikah and Dannyboy-the-Dane.

From my Facebook: 5 years ago today, some kids got their frisbee stuck in a tree and were staring at it and trying to figure out how to get it down. As grown ups, we did what any responsible adults would do: joined in with the thinking and contributed very little. Two of the kids have sailor hats. We don't know why.

 

Here is the infamous frisbee:

Just spent the evening looking at photos of the 2009 NE meet with [mention=4083]Goafer[/mention]. Everybody looks so young!
That's because everyone was (without exception) 11 years younger.
