Zooming through the next few months…’ :thinking:

What would you like from the online meetings over the period where the redtrictions are gradually easing (hopefully)? :thinking:

I guess I was thinking about these sorts of things - maybe we could all talk about these?:

  • Frequency - as now, fortnightly, monthly, pause the meetings, other
  • Start / duration - as now, return to 12 noon, 12 noon but have an ‘early bird’ option as well, other
  • Hosting - as now (have one host), rotate or share hosting based upon who is available

…it may not be possible for everything to be agreed or nailed down in the meeting but it would be really good to hear what everyone would like - in Welsh!…let’s see how far we can get! :smile:
