• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    • Don't give offence
    • Don't take offence

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

Huddle South (or East…?) – Your Thoughts Please!

Not open for further replies.
I’m going to suggest:


a) “Huddle South” as the name;

b) Start date/time of Weds 10th Jan 8:00am UK / 4pm HK / 9pm Auckland / 7pm Canberra / other time zones here

c) Initially monthly.

Please let me know your thoughts.

I do realize that even 9pm is a bit late for NZ… I’m a pretty early riser, so could be persuaded to go even earlier… altho it might have to be a pyjama party :)

7am is a bit early for us on London time, it true. And as we all know noon is reserved for lavish lunches.

Looking for a Kiwi-centric time for a meeting.

An 8am Auckland 7 pm London sort of works for US based, Kiwis and Europeans with flexible time. I'm thinking of a friend in New Orleans who would use her lunch hour to attend.

Would the Kiwis be interested in trying to find a zoom meeting time even if it rarely included Pete?

Sadly, I couldn't do 6am. No carers here :(

This would work - might need to caffinate later in the day though ;)

Sadly anything that lands on a weekday morning would rule me out as I work FT.
