On ‘yer tod over Christmas?

[Rik ShawParticipant @rikshaw]

I’d never heard of the Silver Line until just now. I read the link and thought it might be of interest to some of you on here who live on their own and might not be exactly inundated with friends and family over the Christmas period.

Bottoms up.

This is also a benefit of organisations like the Men's Sheds and Model Engineering clubs. If your club is not keeping in touch with you have a word with the committee and set up a group to call round everyone.

I can vouch for that, Bazyle, as one who won't be inundated either. Nor visiting despite ten-minute walks to my nearest.

Both my geology club and model-engineering society send out frequent e-post flyers.

The former is mainly links to various published articles of geological matters. We'd arranged a small-group. local field-trip for November – then that had to be cancelled.

The MES' round-robins fall into two camps. One camp is admin notices from the Committee including the booking-system for access to the club site (very few allowed at a time, with their names published a day or so beforehand). The other is members' posts of work-in-progress, garden-scale railway operations and in the last couple of day, several Christmas Greetings messages to one and all.

The fly in the tapping-paste is that it appears some combinations of computer, software and ISP won't allow responses or your own contributions to wholesale round-robins. Mine won't. Oh well, that's computers for you.

However, your point is a very good one.
