I haven't seen one anywhere. I know that those responsible for the upkeep of this site give up their free time in order to moderate it and keep it going.
I don't think there are enough people on line at anyone time to make a live chat room feasible.
Why not include your email in the post and ask if anyone fancies meeting up on skype?

Skype, that's a good idea. I wonder if you can do groupe Skype? Or is that not possible on the fre account? Maybe a chat room could be a once a week thing on a certain night? I know nothing about setting them up but could look into it.

Hi Andy
No we dont have a chatroom. Two reasons really. One is that it would need moderating, for which we dont have the resources.
The second is that we cover a lot of stuff in the weekend workshops, and a chatroom would be a very inefficient way of trying to get this stuff across. And in the nature of a chatroom there are things we could not do.
I am uncomfortable about a lot of support websites which seem to do no more than allow people to reinforce each other in their condition, rather than moving them forward; I feel a chatroom would be no different. This is why we always point people towards our workshops; and the feedback shows why.
Cheers
Andrew

Fair point, just a thought.
Any dates for next London workshop? No way I can make the Manchester one. Too far for me.
With a child and a job where I have to cover the weekend once a month, I'm not sure if I could make the London one, but we'll see.
