That 10:30 spot is worst for me, the 5pm spots should work best and Thu is better than Wed.  However, not sure whether I can make it at all - depends on how our dog is doing over the next few days.  I'm still at my parent's place and don't have the headset with me, so I may have to join in listen-only mode.

sorry, i should have

sorry, i should have clarified (doh!). it will likely just be a text chat on Skype. depends how many people are at each session though i guess. i've had a lot of connection issues trying to run a call w 4+ people before.

Is this a text-based or a

Is this a text-based or a voice-based chat ?Our dog recovered really well today, so I could actually quickly drive to my place tomorrow afternoon or on Thursday morning and get the headset.What happens with the forum after the 1st, will it turn into read-only till it runs again or be closed ?Just wondering because I would really like to read all the other student's posts but may not have time to do so as I also want to ask a few own questions.  Got up 6am this morning (it's now 11pm) and too tired to do anything productive.

we are going to try to do it

we are going to try to do it voice-chat. you will all have read-only access to the forum for at least 4 weeks after the program ends (all of March for sure)
