Friday Night Chat


First, my apologies for being away for so long. There was a death in my family and then some other personal items came up that took priority but things seem to be back on track now. Whew, what a year so far though!

Anyway, I used to host a Friday Night Chat session starting around 8:00PM EST and it was starting to become a popular thing so I want to start that back up again here.

The format is pretty laid back and informal. Most of the time it's people asking screen questions in a real time format but from time to time there may be some topics for discussion, or if anyone wants to discuss something it's a great format to bring things up. Any ideas or topics discussed will then be brought to the forum for further discussion by everyone if there isn't a thread already devoted to that particular subject.

I know I had fun doing this and the people that participated also seemed to enjoy it. So without further ado... We'll start the Friday Night Chats at 8:00PM tonight!

One thing to ask though, when you sign in for chat, please use your forum screen name so everyone knows who you are!

^^^^^I agree with him ^^^^^



I'll probably be in more than out, but I've got a house full of 10yr old boys here for a sleepover for my son's birthday party.

Re: Friday Night Chat


A bump...

Are we planning on doing it this week? It being a holiday weekend and all I'd guess no?

Re: Friday Night Chat


No solid plans or topics. I'll probably have the chat window fired up incase anyone stops by, but yeah seeing it's the holidays may not be many around. However, for those that will be broke after Black Friday like me... maybe some will be at home later in the day!

Re: Friday Night Chat


Jack I'll definitely be on... I know you have some questions about laminates and you can ask away. I'm not at the other place anymore and can't answer there but you can ask here.

Re: Friday Night Chat


No problem Jack, I'm usually watching the tube and just sitting around.

It was nice chatting with you and electro, hopefully you got a few things answered

Re: Friday Night Chat


It's almost that time of week again!

The past few chats have gone well I think. Same time as always, 8PM EST unless people want it at a different time, if so let me know.

Re: Friday Night Chat


Was a good chat last night! I don't think I'll be staying on so late again though. I'm a bit tired right now!
