Greetings!

I was going to close the Doodle about the next movie viewing yesterday, but, in highly appropriate Pythonic fashion, the number of the voting has been THREE.

Yes, THREE people have expressed their interest and availability for group-viewing “Monty Python and the Holy Grail.”

Accordingly, I am going to keep the Doodle open through Memorial Day. Please vote if you are interested in participating!

Greetings!

A small but dedicated group met this afternoon, persevered through a few technical hiccups, and eventually figured out how to watch “The Princess Bride” – and a fine time was had!

Our runner-up movie was “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” and we decided that we want to group-watch that sometime as well. After that, we’ll discuss other things to watch and when and how to watch them.

I’ve created a Doodle here: https://doodle.com/poll/ii92mc474xgi4tzw with a few not-quite random options. If you’re interested in joining the watch party, please go vote for the times that would work for you. The Doodle will be open through this Wednesday, May 20, so that I can announce the time that best suits and post instructions for logging on.

Greetings!

After a test run, it appears that using the Zoom for this may not work.

I can run the film on my Discord. If you want to view the movie, you will need to download and install Discord on your own computer, and then subscribe to the Discord server.

Steps to configure Discord: 

1. download the app open & log in

2. add Gwen’s server 

3. Adjust sound settings (you may have to click on the mic and then authorize your computer to use the mic and camera and such)

4. Maybe restart the app?

5. if you still can’t hear things, look on the channel and see if there’s a thing to click on that says to authenticate

Sorry about the additional platform, but you’ll want to be able to see and hear….

Gwen

Greetings unto the Noble Populace of the Barony Marche of the DebatableLands from Muirgheal inghean Dubhghaill,

In these times that test our fortitude, I invite you to join myself and the Officers for our May Barony Meeting via Zoom from 1 to 4 pm on May 17th, 2020. As we move into the Yellow Phase of the Siege against our peoples, there is much to discuss and… a little company to help ease our loss over the many events we would celebrate at this time.

The Marshals and I would like to begin discussions on a return to our regular practices while following CDC and DOH requirements and what it might look like as the restrictions ease and we return to life as we knew it. If you are not able to attend the Zoom meeting, but have questions, concerns, commentary please send it to me or to any of the officers or marshals so that we can make certain to address your concerns and get the notes on the meeting out to you.

Additionally, We are still planning for Agincourt in October! Our hope is that we will be able to run a wonderful event and enjoy fellowship as the autumn comes.

Brehyres Gwendolyn has offered to host a watch party for us after the meeting! So if you are looking for something social to do, please see her missive below and take the survey!

I’m looking forward to entering the Summer and Fall with hope and a return to fellowship in person with all of you.

Yours in service,

Muirgheal

The words of Gwendolyn the Graceful, Brehyres, OL:
Greetings, lovely Barony!

On Sunday, May 17, following the Barony Social Meeting, I will be hosting a movie watch party. I hope many of you will stick around and join us!

What movie are we watching? Well, I’m glad you asked! You can help decide. I’ve selected six titles, some of which are episodes of TV series running 60-75 minutes, and some of which are feature films of 90-120 minutes. I’ve created a survey to help decide the most popular choice.

If you’re interested, you can take the survey here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/8GRWP9T

This survey also has an opportunity to suggest films for future parties, as well as gauge interest in a regular film club of some kind. So even if you’re not available for this watch party, but might be interested in others, please fill out the survey!

Ever in Service,

Gwendolyn the Graceful, Brehyres, OL

Reminder that tonight is online sewing starting at 7pm. There is no agenda; it is about hanging out with fabric and friends. I recommend that you have something to sew or to think about sewing, but it isn’t required. Ironing or seam ripping count as sewing circle activities, but who’s counting. If you have questions, you can email sewing at debatablelands dot org
