I think I might give it a try. Sounds like fun.

[StevieJ]

take my keys! I'm in

If my maths is right, there are 11 of us in the pot. If anyone wants to join the party, there are still a couple of days until the big draw.

Will have to discuss at the Zoom meeting what happens if there is an odd number but if anyone has any thoughts (especially who may not be attending the chat) let us know them here.

To lean on the imagery of the competition name, options are to have someone cheat on their original partner and form a second coupling, or for one of the entries to be a threesome. Sorry, couldn't resist. I'll slink back to the naughty corner now.

So how did the draw go? Am I in?

[Sterix]

So, thanks to PaulyX for being the secretary and taking notes, we have our list of couplings. And it's produced some interesting pairings..

As we had an odd number, we had a little chat about it and decided that one of the "couples" would be a "threesome".

We also had a chat about whether or not to have some sort of theme or something and decided that we'd be a little loose with that. So, if you want to go with the theme of "swinging" feel free to do that. But it's not compulsary.

Anyway, here are the pairings (in the order their keys came out of the bowl...

@rightly  and myself, Sterix
@Martinswede and @caliamoko
@pompeyjazz and @Philipp
@PaulyX and @adamfarr
@cowparsleyman and @Paulski and @StevieJ

The one thing we forgot to discuss was a time constraint. PaulyX suggested a 2-3 month window so let's give it to the end of September (unless we all get them out earlier).

[pompeyjazz]

@Sterix, actually I think it was Martinswede and Vicki and me with Phillip ! In any case you've missed Vicki and myself out

[cowparsleyman]

@StevieJ @Paulski wahaay, looking forward to it…

Thanks Sterix and pompey for sorting out the bedrooms….

[PaulyX]

Yes, as Official Secretary of the Swingers Club, I think Pompeyjazz is right there...
- @CaliaMoko  and @Martinswede
- @pompeyjazz  and @Philipp
Apologies if I sent you misleading minutes @Sterix.

[Philipp]

That'll be fun. I didn't catched the whole rules,,,when is the deadlline?

[Sterix]

My bad! As I was reading off the list Paul sent me, I went from the first pair on one line to the second pair of the next line (in other words, I read a diagonal line!). I'll edit the post with the correct

I'll edit the post with the correct partners!

[StevieJ]

@Paulski @cowparsleyman 3 in the bed and little one said ....

[CaliaMoko]

I read through to find the rules. Looks like the only rule is to be done by the end of September. Otherwise apparently anything goes. So, I'm looking for @Martinswede .   

[Martinswede]

Hi! I didn´t know if I should have attended the Zoom meeting. Never done a Zoom meeting before, so I  don´t know if I could have even if I known. 

[cowparsleyman]

@StevieJ @Paulski

Where to start? any ideas? any songs that you have started and need finishing, what genre? something outside of our comfort zone? or the best of all of our comfort zones should it be about swinging?

[CaliaMoko]

I wasn't at the Zoom either, @Martinswede . We can collaborate via Zoom if you want. It's easy and convenient. Any of us can do that. It's free when you only have two people Zooming together, in case anyone didn't know. And I believe three people or more can zoom for up to 40 minutes at a time for free, also. And if 40 minutes isn't enough, just log back in when you get kicked out. I've been Zooming a lot since Covid started. Keeps me connected to the world.
