MainTitles VIDEO GET-TOGETHER XX: [TO BE ANNOUNCED]

That's far too music oriented for me!! The thing I particularly like about our Zooms is the mix of music and non-music, particularly the latter.

But, I am sure what you suggest will get a bit of interest from others.

Talking about music is fun too.

Perhaps I could be persuaded
First the photo session, then perhaps the music, and something in between

Note that I've once again stretched the beginning half an hour early, and the FSM beginning half an hour late (9:30), so we have 1 hour extra time in total.

Count me in.

Hope to be there and see you all for a little bit!

This upcoming chat is coming up on me quicker than I had expected. I thought May would allow me "space" on each side of the meeting to properly get into it, but no worries -- it will go ahead.

Lee, if you have any cool photos or videos to share (see earlier post about this), please do so.

Oooh, it's the birthday party of my kids that afternoon and evening. If they're in bed and I have energy left, I'll join as well. It's so long ago.

Ready to go!

It was a great chat. Enjoy your film.

Thanks for asking Thomas! Sorry I didn't return to show you my haul, I took a nap instead, haha! We were hoping to find porcini, but instead found an amazing area filled with morels. We just kept finding them! In every shape and color, from blonde to black. I'll have to see if I can get a photo of all the different colors. Normally you can find a good patch and then it'll run dry, but this spot we have this year is just kept going! Made it so much more fun, but I was exhausted afterward because they blend in so perfectly with the ground - you really have to look hard!

Yeah, we missed you, Lee. I think we'll have to "catch you" in one of your inspired online moments, but they seem to be spread out on weekdays rather than Fridays or Saturdays when these meetings are held, so we're rarely in synch. Hopefully at some point.

I'm looking at the next meeting in mid June, if there's still interest (maybe Friday, June 17th?) -- a "summer edition", so to speak. It would then be the last meeting until August or September, since we all probably have holiday plans (hey, that's a topic we could cover!). Also, I can kinda 'sense' that the interest in these chats is waning a little bit, no doubt due to the fact that the world is almost back to normal, pandemic-wise. I mean, we have our core of regulars, but new additions are rare, and some of the old semi-regulars have been absent for a while (would love to have Drew and Tall Guy back, for example).

Some people will laugh at the ‘Fur Edition’ bit, wondering what the hell furry things have to do with a Zoom chat for film music fans. But as some of you know, Fur is the name of the quite exotic island in Denmark that hosts our summer house (Bregt visited 6 years ago, along with Kaat). That’s where I’m staying at the moment, and will stay alone until September 4th, both working remotely and enjoying life as best as I can.

As alluded to earlier, I thought it would be a great experiment to host a Zoom chat from here, perhaps give you a brief tour of the immediate surroundings, Cailin-style, if weather, technology and internet signals allow.

But mostly to chat again, after a longer holiday hiatus. I’m open to Friday, August 26 too, but Saturdays always work better for Americans.

What say ye?

Cheers, Alan!
