You will see that one of the links from this forum leads to the GAGB GeoChat.

The Chatroom is open to all comers at all hours but most chat occurs during the evenings. If you've never used a chatroom before just try it out - it's very easy - You just type what you want to say in the line where the curser shows! Although you will see the list of names of those 'logged in' to the room most will be doing other stuff so you may not get an immediate response when you join the room - Stay logged in for a while and we'll get back to you ASAP

You might even get one of MrsB's virtual cups of tea...
