Do try Zoom. I belong to a couple of groups who have met throughout the pandemic using Zoom. We enjoyed a 'drinks and nibbles' party before Christmas, and even put on a pantomime, which was great fun. There's also a monthly 'coffee morning'. Zoom have given extra time, free of charge occasionally, but as someone said, upthread, if more time is needed, just log out and back in. Zoom is a great medium for helping people to feel connected. There are glitches occasionally, usually a cause for much laughter as we try to sort things out. I'm looking forward to our January meeting on Zoom, when we will play 'Would I Lie to You'.
