get_togetherSome general updates and reminders as we approach D-Day...
1) Friday Shenanigans
-- brunch at Spruce Goose at 11am
-- dinner at Grand Century at 7pm
-- both bookings in my name if you happen to be the first one there
2) Temperatures and Heating
-- I know it's become a meme that I am always in character as myself, ie in short sleeves and jandals in all weathers, but friends, it's cold, I'm cold, please pack warm and dress comfortably, bring a throw if you are cold blooded...
-- reminder that the heating in the main hall is coin operated (I momentarily can't remember if it's ones or twos so will crowd source this on twitter shortly and come back to edit in the right answer) so if everyone's got a couple of gold coins to toss in the cup that'd be great, I'll have a stash as well anddewey has generously donated to this noble goal
3) Pictionary
--shihadchick has asked me to notify everyone that if they want to submit their masterworks in advance (or have any questions) they should just reply to the email she sent (forensic.plumbing at gmail)
4) Technology
--blademistress remains our tech mod/god, but please follow usual procedure and bring your presentations on a USB drive that can be easily transferred to the main computer rather than swapping individual laptops in and out
5) Covid
-- masking is optional but everyone should feel absolutely justified and happy doing whatever their own comfort level suggests; obviously anyone with symptoms should be taking a RAT (but of course we all know that)
--sixthlight is our mitigation officer on the ground: "I have an air purifier rated for 50-80m2 and CO2 monitors I can bring for this weekend; better to have some info than none when making masking decisions, is my usual thinking (and the air purifier saved book group from an active undiagnosed COVID case earlier this year so I have great faith in it)"
6) Cosmetics Swap
-- Casey is running a perfume sample/cosmetic swap, most likely on Saturday as the weather forecast is kinder and it can be done out on the deck, and most likely at lunchtime; feel free to bring anything you'd like to trade or pass on to a good home
I think that's everything for now, but no doubt something else will occur to me as soon as I hit post.
