A11 With all the comings and goings of all the chats I've been in, I'm hard pressed if any in-person meetings included any who crossed into #DigiBlogChat. However, in the early days of the pandemic, LazBlazter, John W Lewis#DigiBlogChat.and I hooked up on a three-person Zoom.

And to you for reminding us of the importance of friendship! #DigiBlogChat

Nighty night! Stay cool, friends! #DigiBlogChat

And one more time! #DigiBlogChat

Such a lovely hour chatting to friends and talking about #friendship it makes me feel all nice and happy inside #digiblogchat

Really lovely to see you both together. #DigiBlogChat

A11. Yes, @johnwlewis.com and I have met up on two occasions but we are overdue sorting another catch-up. #DigiBlogChat

It was so good I want to go back to Turin!! These were Piedmontese's speciality like 'vitello tonato' #DigiBlogChat

Wait a second (again). Did you know her from before? I didn't know that! #DigiBlogChat

Goodnight, friendly Dragons! You are awesome, as always! #DigiBlogChat

A big thank you to @fedica.com for helping us schedule all the posts! We appreciate you! #DigiBlogChat

Thank you to everyone for your enthusiasm and contributions today! Remember–if you want to discuss a topic let us know! #DigiBlogChat

Thank you to @maricarjagger.bsky.social for the topic and questions and best of all, her friendship! #DigiBlogChat

What a great chat. Thank you @carolstephen.bsky.social @lazblazter.bsky.social and @maricarjagger.bsky.social for a friend filled hour!! #digiblogchat

1. Superb,you surely rock that lecturing malarkey. 2. Sad but glad, time to do somethings that have been on hold maybe. 3 Congrats. Coffee is an awesome thing. The pic is one of the vehicles my eldest converted for outside catering. Coffee carts are big here. #DigiBlogChat

I find I often connect with people on multiple platforms. Instagram might be more downtime and LinkedIn work or that whole birthday thing Facebook does well #DigiBlogChat

Friends are gold, they keep you alive and excited about life. Also, you get an extra reason to visit places. I've seen many US cities through visiting friends. Also countries #DigiBlogChat

I've met up with Sandy and Ema. Working on the others! #DigiBlogChat

Why not. If I think about it I willingly put more regular effort into weekly chats than some friendships. #DigiBlogChat

A11. Yes, have met up with many! @mistressprime.bsky.social (we met at WordCamp), Bridget Willard, and Beth @beththephotog.bsky.social ! #DigiBlogChat And many more, but not all are on Blue Sky.

A10 checking in on 'em. We make time for what is important to us. #digiblogchat

A10. An in-person visit can def strengthen a long-distance friendship! But also: ✅ Encourage their interests ✅ Listen to their updates ✅ Buy their services/products, if possible #DigiBlogChat

A10 The old saying is that absence makes the heart grow fonder. Or maybe it's absinthe. It's a sobering thought. #DigiBlogChat

A8. I'd challenge the assumption distance is a problem as you can choose friends for being interesting, amusing and other good things that work despite the distance. #DigiBlogChat

HA. 1 Uni is THE BEST THING IN THE UNIVERSE. 2 Family business is ending July 1. Dave is retiring. WOOHOOO 3 Syd just graduated with her masters and is working in a coffee shop -we are totally okay with it. She is management. #digiblogchat

A9. Hm. Does #DigiBlogChat count? If so, then friends in many countries! #DigiBlogChat

A9 If you count #DigiBlogChat friends and others of that ilk, at one time or another I've had friends in most continents -- still awaiting replies from penguins in Antarctica. #DigiBlogChat

We're trending again! Whoop! #DigiBlogChat

Oh, my! Why am I getting hungry? #DigiBlogChat

A2. For me I suspect a little effort. I always enjoy meeting and having a proper chat but historically rubbish at doing this. Things like realising you'll be close and getting in touch #DigiBlogChat

What a great movie--must revisit it. #DigiBlogChat

It was such a lovely meeting and you get to know each other better than you can on letters or Facebook! #DigiBlogChat

A1. Back to analogue days even though said Friend is in New Zealand now. As a kid we knew each other's families rather than through school and got back in touch through Facebook. #DigiBlogChat

Between questions we’d like to announce next week’s topic: Refreshing Your Pinterest Account #DigiBlogChat

I miss Teodora, Maricar! Thanks for the photo--you both look great!!! #DigiBlogChat

........ Germany hockey tour continued: However, one player has lost his footing but decided to finish his business before attempting to chase after the disappearing coach. Ten hours later, a trip to a Belgian Police HQ and a rebooked Ferry and we were reunited. He forgave me 😁. #DigiBlogChat

That's true, too, Jim. Sometimes people need to check to see if their friends are now in heaven! #DigiBlogChat

A7 Habitually I go to Michigan where the celebrations at the Beach Bar and Jerry's Pub are legendary. LOL #digiblogchat

Hahaha! #DigiBlogChat

A6. Don't read too much into silences. People are busy, not necessarily offended or angry with you. Keep an open mind. Always think on the bright side of life! #DigiBlogChat

A6. One way to prevent misunderstanding? Always give the benefit of the doubt to your friend. #DigiBlogChat

A6 Don't talk 😜 Just kidding. Phones work so you can hear tone and not misinterpret. Texting. . . . .gotta love it. #digiblogchat

It’s the halfway point and time for a quick and friendly stretch! #DigiBlogChat

A5. Consistency, mutual effort, and active listening are everything. You don't need to speak every day, but when you do, being fully present and showing genuine interest keeps the spark alive. #DigiBlogChat

Keep up and keep replying! #DigiBlogChat

Sounds like someone needs to start packing for a trip! #DigiBlogChat

Hahaha! Always a good idea! #DigiBlogChat
