motherhen Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I've split this topic off for maximum coverage! Hope everyone logs in on September 23rd at 4pm! - Kate If we're going to have an amnesty day - and I agree 31st Sept is the perfect day, and it should be an annual event so OHs will know none of us are forum addicts - then we should also have a day and time when as many of us as possible log on together. At the bottom of the forum index page it says: Most users ever online was 25 on Tue Sep 28, 2004 1:33 pm This is now nearly a year out of date and I think we should exceed and update it. Any ideas for day and time to do it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 What about the 24th September - a saturday I think - so we are one day ahead?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 September 28th is a Wednesday. I definatly can't do this day because it's my Birthday!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I can't get online at weekends I am also off on 24th august as Herbie (the car) is having a new roof fitted I would like to be there if possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 How about Friday 23rd then? Evening, so I can relax, feet up, glass of wine and weekend ahead of us, and chat with friends (aka fellow forum addicts). Actually, even as I posted that I remembered Louise hasn't got internet access at home, but Annie will no doubt have a classroom full of darlings earlier in the day . What about late-ish afternoon- 4pm? Please don't do it in the next 2 weeks, I'm away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Sounds okay to me how is that for all the others at work will you be able to get time for that I finish at 4 on a Friday so it will be my own time could be in for a late trip home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 4.00?? are you joking? Still up to my elbows in books and whatever else the little darlings have left behind for me!! I don't think we'll get a time that suits everybody, so go for whatever you wish...If I can, I'll sneak upstairs to the computer room and hope that there's no filter to keep me out...... by hook or by crook, whenever you guys are up for it, I'll be there!!!

motherhen Posted August 18, 2005 Author Share Posted August 18, 2005 Friday 23rd Sept 4pm onwards - entered in diary We should 'bump' this topic a couple of days before the big day to get as many people as possible on board. Do you think there is a limit to what the forum can handle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnnieP Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 They should be delighted that there are so many users extolling the virtues of their wonderful products!! I'm sure it would be robust enough for hundreds of users, so I don't think we need worry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheilaz Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Brilliant, Jane! There have been a few occasions with several online & I wondered if we would exceed it or could arrange it. Won't it be funny...the names may not fit into the users online bit! I'll be there, somehow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheilaz Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Just a thought; We've arranged the time as 4pm, 23/9/05, which sounds popular. But, for anyone who can't make that time, we could have a few others in addition.Perhaps, on the hour, as near as poss, eg. 3pm, before school collection, and 7pm, after work. Therefore, if you can log on at all on that day, aim for 4pm, but if 4 is out for you, make it the nearest on the hour that you can manage! Oh, it was a complex thought, should I be deleted? Also, I'll have to stay online all day to see what happens 4 o'clock was a good idea PS, I need an agility lesson, Mel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Good idea Sheila.....with all the postings that will be going on I imagine we'll be here al night anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali-s Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Hi Don't forget that the omlet time is ten minutes ahead. Will this mean everyone will have to log on at 3.50pm? Or am I getting confused and complicating things? Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
