It's my birthday next weekend, please come to my online party!

There will be a mix of different "rooms" in video chat, text chat, and possibly some sort of retro MMPORG designed for a mix of gentle chat, drinks, dressing up, games, as you feel like. I haven't tried this before so I hope it works well! I'll start about 7:30 and go for a few hours, but the time is inherently flexible.

I am sad not to see most of you in person, but glad to do something friends who live further away can potentially join in with.

I will post a link to join a day or so in advance so you have a chance to test it out. If you're not sure what you're doing, that's fine, just turn up.

Anyone I'm mutual with online is welcome to come along, even if you can't usually come! Let me know if there's anyone else you'd like to bring, that's also welcome. And anyone sharing a house with you is automatically welcome.

Oooh!
I haven't been to your birthday party for...counts on fingers, runs out of fingers, too cold to remove socks... er, yonks!

The idea of a mix of rooms is brilliant. Including a temporary channel on IRC? OFTC would be my preference, being Software in the Public Interest, and people who don't use IRC can easily use their website (And because I've, ahem, forgotten my passwords on others.)
