@KlaudiyaG Thanks. You saw the time problems in my other post. Your post was for me a definitive one, so to say from Google’s mouth. I asked in an English round about Hugh Grant way.

BTW are you going to CL2019?

Hahahaha, that’s alright. It just took me a little while to figure everything out, that’s all. The most important thing is to find a solution to the issue. :slightly_smiling_face:

Regarding your question, no, I’m not going to attend Connect Live 2019, but I’m sure that the Local Guides team will make sure that you and all the other attendees will have an amazing time. So, enjoy and keep me posted. :wink:

Thank you @KlaudiyaG for the summary of the pre-post CL events. It’ll be helpful many people like me who are too busy to look for what’s happening around and always suffer from FLO (feeling left out) syndrome. :wink:

I didn’t know that @AlejandraMaria was hosting a meetup which it seems I’m about to miss. But I’m definitely attending Paul’s photowalk, and Emeka’s accessibility meetup.
