Thanks for pointing me to this thread, Jerry...interesting reading the last few posts but I'm just at the listening stage, at the moment.... until I get braver!
Hope to maybe pop on and contribute before too long. I like the idea behind the thread...although I feel slightly wistful that we don't all have the time to actually call round on friends and park our feet under the table for a drink and chat, quite as often, as in years gone by. Typed conversations can lose a little bit of warmth or be misunderstood, more easily than face-to-face chats with the extra clues of body language and tone of voice.
Congratulations, though, at starting and maintaining a very good attempt at the kitchen table chat session! Please excuse me interrupting it!
