This Club is sponsored by
the Richard III Society but it is an open forum for anybody interested
in Richard III, The Wars of Roses and the later Medieval period generally.
Richard III lived and reigned during the Fifteenth Century. Therefore,
this is a place where we discuss not only Richard himself but the Fifteenth
and early Sixteenth Centuries as a whole. Events which affected Richard
in his lifetime and shortly before and the consequences and aftermath
of his brief reign.
The additional benefits of
the Yahoo
Forum enable you to send typed messages but now has the added ability
to communicate with others on line, either by typing in a private conference
area, or if enough people wish, they can use the 'Chat' room. Another
benefit with the 'chat' room is the use of speech, for those of you with
microphones/ headsets and speakers you can actually talk to other like
minded 'Ricardians'. This requires you to download some software from
'Yahoo' but is certainly worth it. Another piece of software to download
is the 'Messenger' system. This allows other people to see when you are
logged on and make contact. It also allows you to build up a list of contacts
in your own area to view others that me be online.
To download the
'Chat' and 'Messenger' software just click on the words on the main page
and it will take you through the process.
The time of the
chat is set for 21:00 GMT every Sunday which is:-
USA
4 pm Eastern,
3 pm Central, 2 Mountain
1 pm Pacific in the US
