I don't like anyone so won't join in 🙂 but...

You can setup a Zoom account easily and for free here https://zoom.us/
You can host 'meetings' for up to 40 mins for free.
You don't have to have your camera on if you don't wish
You can use an alias name so don't need to share email address or other details with other attendees.

I think this last point I think is correct (I have only used Zoom for work where I know the others email address) but
One person has to 'run' the meeting and if they don't know others email address then they can simple post the meeting link/id on this forum for others to join in.

Good luck
ps. I have no affiliation with Zoom and only started using it since lockdown but it's very very easy and works great. I have run meetings up to ten people.

Happy to chat about other subjects
I have read two books over Christmas and New year.
All the Light we Cannot See - BRILLIANT!!!
and Charlotte Green by Seb Faulkes, a French Resistance story, so quite apt for us guys.
Over past lockdown also read The Pianist of Yarmouk, very moving story.

Oh, I loved Charlotte Green. I think All the Light is on my list, but I've not heard of the Pianist, so will add that to the list.

On war stuff, I watched Guernsey Literary Potato etc over Xmas but I found it rather laboured. It started well but then petered out a bit, I thought.

I read PD James Short Stories over Xmas, but my attention span for reading has reduced.
I must do something about that! I enjoy historical fiction generally, but even more now as I like the escapism.

Next, I might re-read The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield, which is one of my favourites. I'll see how I feel after work tomorrow and how much brain I have left.

Thanks everyone including those that dont like people..my next days off I will have a go 😊
For pure escapism I watched all of shitts creek on Netflix as I have not watched the TV for years or brought newspapers unless I fancy doing a crossword so just take that out and burn the rest with other rubbish.i had some good belly ache laughs watching a creek something I had not done for a while. It got a bit wishy washy but some of the one liners are great. I have a dry sense of humor and hate slapstick so i found that fun.
I am watching mary queen of scots at the min..again a bit wishy washy at times but i am still enjoying it except the real gory bits. Interestingly i just watched the episode on the plague where it's all about lockdowns social distancing masks ect..all very apt.
The last book was something I picked up somewhere about a Norwegian detective. Very light for escapism and to help me sleep ( sometimes works) but I enjoyed it anyway. Gave it away so I cant remember the title.
Back to reading the queen and I and queen camilla sue townsend .both I have read several times but both have me in hysterics as i need to keep laughing and keep my spirits up as the alternative is not nice...
😀

I didnt know there was a series on Mary, where's that please?

Oh yes, I've heard good things about Schitt's Creek, definitely need some comedy!

Scarlett r...
It's on netflix..no I am not a sheep follower who eats takeouts and watches netflix all day as the governments plan seems to be just this for us 😀 ...
I think I will watch s creek again even though I know what happens but I do need a good laugh again..
Try the sue townsend books in the order I put them in . The first funny but the 2and hilarious.
