Louis, you can find daily meeting announcements here Chat Meetings - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

and a time zone converter here http://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/...ing-times.html

No hassle at all, and you're not "thick" either!

Sorry... me again...

I still havent a scooby what i am doing with the chat meetings...
I read a post in one of the forums and posted a reply that said it was 1.15am... so counted back to 9pm... which meant that the chat is on at 6am in Britian... Am i even close??????
I tried using the time zone clock but as i dont know where the meeting zones are held... i didn't know what to look for... the clock said United states etc... but they differet times depending on where you are....

I am really sorry about this.... i can just about post a reply and get smilies... computers and THINKING are not one of my strong points...

I would like to be able to hit one of the meetings here... that way if i am at work... i cant use it as i an excuse not to attend a meeting.

Thanks and sorry again

Be well
louis

Louis, you can adjust the times displayed in the forums to your own timezone. I did a lot of calculating until I managed to discover this feature
Click on "User CP" on the menu bar (at the top of this page), click on "Edit Options" on the drop down menu, then scroll down the page to "Date and time options". You can select your timezone there (GMT until the end of March?).

Also, as Charmian said, you can drop by the chatroom at any time you like
