Interested in half an hour's Zoom on New Year's Day?

[Luke]

Next week I'm free during the day time but not the evenings, which means it's out US wise; the following week I'm better off for late afternoon/early evenings, though not Monday and after 6 (UK time) on Tuesday/Thursday

[vandermolen]

It seems to me time to convene again. What day(s) may suit?

Nice idea Karl I was just thinking that today. I'm on school holiday/vacation until 19th April but can often be free in the evenings or at other times. I usually work on a Wednesday and Friday at the school.

[ritter]

It would be great to see you guys. Thanks for the initiative, Karl!

I'll be in Madrid all of next week. I'm very busy at work, so might not be able to join at the last minute (hope that is not the case, but am sometimes called into sour-of-the-moment videoconferences and that kind of stuff).

[Crudblud]

Thanks Karl. I'm on Easter break from my studies right now, so any day in the next few weeks I'm probably free. Wednesdays are the major exception.

[LKB]

Hey Karl, for me Monday or Tuesday mornings ( not too early, west coast here ), or later on Sundays. 

[Florestan]

Hi, Karl, thanks for the invitation. In principle, evenings would be okay (Romania is 7 hours ahead of Boston time). I have a flexible schedule, though, so if I'm available I'll join in on whatever date and at whatever time you agree with the others.

[vandermolen]

5 hours ahead here.

[(poco) Sforzando]

I'm generally free. If you like, I can host the meeting so we don't have a 40-minute time limitation. Just let me know.

That will be grand, Larry. Will advise, thanks!

Apologies for having been a bit on the dilatory side. How about 3:00PM Boston/New York time on Tuesday the 18^th?

Oh, that'll be 9 pm here, and I have a dinner engagement that night (we have dinner at that time here in Spain). Sorry!

That's 10 PM here, a bit late. I won't be able to attend, sorry. Next time.

[vandermolen]

The link seems to be working fine here. I will try to join if I possibly can.
I've written 'Cat Group Meeting' in my diary to remind myself and so that my wife knows what I am up to.

Could we start earlier? Since I have no time limit on my account, I could open the room an hour earlier.

Thanks but it wouldn't make much of a difference, I'm afraid. Truth is, tomorrow in the afternoon I'll be driving for a few hours and get home around 8 PM, so I'll be rather tired and not in a proper mood for a conversation. There's no problem, though, there will be a next time.
