kim_straw16 11 Aug 04, 20:19	+ i would love to join it, nothing like this has been available to me before so it would be great! and monday is a good day!
Damo 12 Aug 04, 14:39	+ Ok what I shall do is make an introduction page and post it here soon. Shall we set a week Monday as the start date (to give me time to prepare)? That's Monday 23rd August at 8pm Damian
Damo 18 Aug 04, 21:23	+ CHANGE OF PLAN I hear some people are going to be away so perhaps it's be better to wait until everyone is back in school? Also the next 2 weeks I am working extra in the surgery so won't have time to prepare. SO - I'll get the preparation page up in the next week or so (I'll post the link here) and we'll have the first Study on Monday 6th September at 8pm Let me know if that is ok
Annabannana 18 Aug 04, 23:22	+ All fine and dandy for me
kim_straw16 19 Aug 04, 19:17	+ it's fine with me to!
gorjess 19 Aug 04, 20:02	+ yep thts good for me
VALLEY 20 Aug 04, 19:02	+ Are officers allowed to join in?
Damo 20 Aug 04, 23:23	+ as long as they behave!
VALLEY 20 Aug 04, 23:33	+ yes sir!!
Damo 01 Sep 04, 20:40	+ OK - hope everyone is still ok for next Monday. Sorry I haven't got the preparation page up yet. Hope to get it up very soon. I'll send you all a message when it's up. General preparation would be to have a look at the book of Esther. Why not read the whole book? It's not that long and it's a great story. If as you read it you think of any questions then let write them down and bring them to the studies.
skippy 01 Sep 04, 21:18	+ OK cool, see you Monday
VALLEY 02 Sep 04, 08:59	+ me is ready
rodney 02 Sep 04, 18:03	+ Iz it too late 4 me to ask 2 join in??? Cuz i only heard bout it 2day......It sounds like a bril idea!!!
skippy 02 Sep 04, 18:06	+ No, I'm sure its not! Everyone I've just realised I have an Art trip on Monday from 6 - 8:30... so I don't think I can make it this time! Might be able to catch the end...? Godwilling I'll see y'all the following week.
Damo 03 Sep 04, 00:38	+ it's certainly not too late to join. I will get some details up soon (sorry - life is hectic at the moment). For now I was thinking of doing it every other week. So for example this coming Monday we'll have the first bible study, the next Monday I'll put up the preparation for the following week, and then there's be another study the week after. The reason for thinking of doing it that way is so that people have time to catch up if they miss a study. Also it means it's not too much of a burden for anyone. However if you all disagree and want it weekly then I'm happy to reconsider.
Damo 06 Sep 04, 18:22	+ Sorry everyone. I've not been very good at getting things sorted this time. I will be better next time! Things are still on though. Hope you'll be there. Click here to get started
Damo 06 Sep 04, 21:03	+ FAILURE! Those of you who came will know that it all went pear shaped!! Technical difficulties prevented people from login in. I'm not giving up though and we are working on a new way of doing things so that it will work next time. Before the next study we will have a test session to make sure there aren't any problems. Watch this space for more information.
VALLEY 07 Sep 04, 23:02	+ can you not do it over MSN Messenger? most people have it installed now i think.
Damo 08 Sep 04, 10:57	+ most people are on it but not everyone. And if someone new came then we might not have them on our contct list. The other problem is the lack of control on MSN messenger - you can't block people if they are misbehaving. Plus if you are all in the same chat then there's no way of sending private messages. We are looking at it. May just have to get everyone to download an IRC client. It's not too complicated. And some people did manage to log in using the website.
VALLEY 08 Sep 04, 23:15	+ ok kool.....i'll get the IRC installed at some point.
