Is everyone else still waiting? I suddenly panicked I was in the wrong lobby. Left. Realised I wasn't and rejoined.

chilling19 · 14/05/2024 10:24

Nor me

SidewaysOtter · 14/05/2024 10:24

I'm concerned I'm in the wrong meeting Hmm

GCITC · 14/05/2024 10:20

I miss WFTCHTJ

Me too

ickky · 14/05/2024 10:25

It is a little unsettling to not hear WFTCHTJ, not even a bit of elevator music.

Mine says "when the meeting starts we'll let people know you are waiting". Is that what you all have?

Yep.

GCITC · 14/05/2024 10:25

Still waiting here

MyLadyDisdainlsYetLiving · 14/05/2024 10:25

I'm still waiting too, but not panicking yet remembering the multiple delays in previous hearings. Especially on the first day!

IdisagreeMrHochhauser · 14/05/2024 10:26

I have my driving licence with me in case I needed ID. Just getting admitted to the meeting at this point would be a relief.

IdisagreeMrHochhauser · 14/05/2024 10:26

Yes true. There could be legal things going on to start with.

Pyjamagame · 14/05/2024 10:26

I've got photo ID at the ready as well. Still waiting. . .

IAmOnTheList · 14/05/2024 10:27

Still waiting too

ickky · 14/05/2024 10:27

I have no ID ready <panics>

OP posts:
LipbalmOrKnickers · 14/05/2024 10:29

Good call on the photo ID. I went and got mine too, just in case.

Still waiting here.

LipbalmOrKnickers · 14/05/2024 10:29

Noises!

IdisagreeMrHochhauser · 14/05/2024 10:29

I'm in!!!

chilling19 · 14/05/2024 10:29

JollyJanuary · 14/05/2024 10:29

GoodHeavens99 · 14/05/2024 10:30

GCITC · 14/05/2024 10:30

Hi Ben!

HarpQuartet · 14/05/2024 10:31

Thanks everyone who is following, I'm at work but sneakily have half an eye on here

ickky · 14/05/2024 10:31

Cannot understand a word she is saying, sound is terrible.

OP posts:
Pyjamagame · 14/05/2024 10:31

Sounds very unclear for me

MyLadyDisdainlsYetLiving · 14/05/2024 10:31

Some guests aren't on mute...

GCITC · 14/05/2024 10:31

The sound is horrendous
