I would LOVE a lunchtime chat because that would mean I could participate!! With the time difference from the US to Italy the night time chats are 3am for me, so a lunch time chat would be perfect. Just let me know when if you plan a lunchtime chat.
I will try and check in after all the ladies leave from dinner tonight. Would it be rude to say "It would really be nice if you all could go ahead and leave, I have a date with my WISH friends?"
I like the idea of an afternoon chat also, DH might would probably appreciate not taking time from him in the evenings.
