vPub Re-visited - August 2020

COVID-19 Coronavirus Lockdown

So, a couple of months down the line since our last vPub session, we decided to have another virtual lockdown catch-up, back at the vPub.

A few reminders of our vPub evening


THE USUAL SUSPECTS...

- Charlie "Star Trek Enterprise" Grant
- Pete "Five minutes late" Smith
- Simon "Even later than Pete" Piercy
- Tim "Sleeping more than an hour at a time now" Spate
- Dave "Actually been out to visit 'real' people" Noble


Saturday

Charlie, Simon, Pete, Dave & Tim met in the Zoom-hosted virtual pub.

We'd resevred the whole place for ourselves.


The Usual Suspects


We all chatted about our recent life events, including Charlie's build of a scale model of the Star Trek USS Enterprise NCC-1701 ...


Simon mentioned how few people seemed to be returning to office-based working ...


Charlie & Pete talked about their recent golf game - with a different result to 6 years ago! ...


Dave enquired if Charlie was still watching a film-a-day during lockdown - and it was yes, of course. Landmark films along way (extracted from Charlie's recently compiled films database), including first trip to the cinema in 5 months ...


There was also talk of whether conditions will have improved enough by the time we are scheduled to meet for real in The Lakes. It remains in the balance but one thing's for sure - we are all very much looking forward to being able to once again do this ...


It was another great catch-up, with much fun and the usual banter.

We agreed to do it all again soon - and looked forward to getting out of lockdown, imposed because of this dreaded virus.
