I'm using UK-centric notions of morning and eventing, since those are compatible with the meetings being in UTC.

Both the events in the calendar repeat every 4 weeks. You have to include the BYDAY thing to get the recurrance on the right day of the week (it doesn't just figure it out from working forwards from the DTSTAMP). I realised that the notion of day is problematic because of the timezones we work in. The schedule means that the meets are always on a NZ Thursday, but that means half of them are a UK Wednesday.

Physical lines need to be <72 chars. A logical line can be split over multiple physical lines, and I think WS at the start of a physical line is ignored.

Splitting the URL is a bit 🤮 , but doing so gets rid of a warning from the validator.
