New to CC socials: For anyone new to the socials, it's a weekly online meetup where CC members come together to connect with each other and have a bit of positivity along the way. It's not specifically Airbnb focused and anyone new is very welcome.

@Katie 

I'll be there~ 🍺 

Looking forward to catching up with everyone~ 

[Katie]

Great, see you there @Jessica-and-Henry0 😊

[Katie]

Hey @Roberta2 @Jessica-and-Henry0 @Cathie19 @Debra300,

Just wanted to give you the heads up that I've got the Zoom link - yay! 

Excited to see you all and catch up tomorrow 😊

[Christine615]

I'll be sleepy - but I'll be there 🙂

[Huma0]

Oh no! I can't make it again. I'm on deadline at work (as well as prepping for a guest check in) so 12pm is a no go for me 😞

I hope it goes well.

[Cathie19]

The chat was lovely @Huma0 , and you were missed. Maybe next time! 💐

[Katie]

Hope it all went ok @Huma0 and fingers crossed we can catch you next time 😊

[Huma0]

@Cathie19 @Katie 

Thank you! Sounds like it went very well and I totally agree with @Ann72  that one must never hide their glass of wine even though 12pm GMT is a bit early, even for me!

Unfortunately, I will be on deadline for the next week or so, but hopefully not by the time you have another meet up.

[Cathie19]

@Huma0 , my wine was completely legitimate at 8.30pm - cheers! 🥂

[Huma0]

@Cathie19 

Yes, a more than respectable time to have a glass (or two) of wine!

[Robin4]

@Huma0 

Well I was still at it at 1.30 am,  glass (or should I say, mug) in hand.....

@Cathie19  and I were feeling a bit uncomfortable drinking wine while everyone else was drinking coffee....not quite sure what @Jessica-and-Henry0  was drinking, but it sure as hell wasn't one of Henry's beers!!!

I felt I needed to at least give the appearance of being sociable, so I drank red wine out of a mug all night.

Can I state here and now, that is not a recommended way to enjoy wine!  I think I cleaned the pegs and had a shower, but don't remember hitting the pillow!

Can I just say what a great job you moderators do @Katie  @Nick , all of you.....you sit in the background and don't intrude, we know you are taking everything on board  but you are that example that Airbnb should be, you simply bring people together without treading on their toes, good on you!

Cheers.......Rob

[Jessica-and-Henry0]

Unfortunately, it was just plain old commercial off-the-shelf beer last night @Robin4

 I am very much looking forward to this weekend...... a new batch of Henry's brew is ready and waiting for me at home in Seoul. 😁

[Katie]

Haha @Robin4 that video is the best thing I've seen in ages, honestly it's really cracking me up seeing us all dancing in it 🤣

Aww thank you - that's what we're here for, to be there and listen to you guys, but it really means a lot that you say that 😊

Here's to the next one! 

[Ann72]

@Katie @Cathie19 @Christine615 @Jessica-and-Henry0 @Lawrene0 @Clara116 @Nick and of course @ THE GREAT @Robin4  What a fantastic meet-up!  Wished it could have gone on for another hour.  Rob thanks for your great ideas and for setting me straight on the real importance of removing outlier reviews.  Clara big hug, I know what you're going through.  You guys are amazing.  Lawrene please let me be Canadian some day...

[Cathie19]

Yes it was good! Back to a G&T for you next time @Ann72 . Back to a cuppa, cereal & toast for me! Sad that I was the only one not hiding my glass of wine @Robin4!!  Lol...
