Zoom, zoom

What do they say about old dogs and new tricks?  We had our caravan club 4zees, Happy Hour, with a difference yesterday.  Our Club President Barry sent out the Zoom invitation to join in at 4.00pm from our homes and I must admit I was wondering how we would all go about it.  Luckily Robin is a lot more au fait with computers than me, and organised both of our small tablets to take part.  Others used their laptops and Pat and Thelma used their phone – although Pat did complain of his arm getting tired with holding the phone up for ages.

It was certainly a learning cure, what with finding out how to turn the microphone on, how to get different pictures on the screen, and after a few hiccoughs it all worked out surprisingly well.   There were glasses of wine and beer bottles in evidence, and coffee as well.  So nice to catch up with everyone again via this new medium.

All great fun, and we will be repeating the exercise in a couple of weeks time.  Who would have thought that we would be zooming – most of us would not have heard of this term a few months ago.  Just goes to show that old dogs can learn new tricks!

Well done, you!!

We've been playing cards with remote friends using FaceTime and WhatsApp - lots of fun.

Glad to know you are keeping well.

You sound just like us. I'd never heard of Zoom before either. When all us Scrub Stitchers got together we all had to figure it all out, but it does work well, doesn't it. I'm glad you were all able to have 4zees together. we are all learning so many new ways to do things during these crazy times.
