If we fell off the tree?

Actually I just did....thought it might be expensive but could be possible....up to 10 people?

This is the third time I've tried to say this!
Look at it!
Face to face conversation in real time vision and sound. Most modern computers seem to be equipped.

Look at it!

I hope I don't lose this again!

I know it exists but that's about it!

Just thought alie do you have Skype?
In fact, I've just thought how many of us do have Skype?

Travelling even to Oxford is not easy....but don't let me put others off!

phoenix would that be the thong

Just an idea! Could GNHQ get some sort of discount for a meeting. Birmingham area is central?

That sounds marvellous. Would be fine with me, but cost for others?

Or somewhere warm and sunny???

Fine! I have had parties here for 30 and more!
Can't fund that number on my own though!

Are we perhaps looking at a GN convention? Somewhere?

Alternatively, we could hire a minibus and fetch up at Jeni's!

For north west Gransnetters who would like to meet up I had a look at distances, and those of us around Stockport, New Mills, Wirral (any others?) we wouldn't have to travel more than about 20 miles to meet somewhere like Lymm or Knutsford.

I like the sound of that. Let's work on it.

Not too far! Maniac is near mr. Perhaps we could meet?

Clasped hands.........

I'll be in the Cotswolds/Bath area end of October .....

Which one?

Brilliant idea, jeni.

Oh alie I do wish we could meet, I'm sure we would get on.
Do you ever come my way? I'm N Somerset on the coast, not far from the Gordano services on the M5.
In fact f any GNers are coming down past here, I would love to meet you!

I have a 4bedroomed house, but only three equipped, but would be happy to put up people overnight if times matched!

alie it will take time. Hold on in there and we are allways here if you're feeling down.[friendly hand ] emoticon.

GNHQ a friendly hand emoticon eg. Two clasped hands would be superb!

Ooh good a meeting of gransnetters.First week August or sometime Sept be good for me.
* When *I often (well not that often) meet friends in Rams Head, don't know Fallow Deer. Can't get this bold business on here.
Alie sorry to hear you're having a tough time.

So long as I don't have to make an appointment! Thanks when

Sympathies for all you're putting up with Alie. You need a fresh prescription for 6 x 10 minute doses of Gransnet every day for the next 2 weeks, them come back and we'll see if you need your prescription adjusting. Take care

Answered!
This is cheering me up considerably.

Jeni , it's been mainly that this colitis just goes on and on and although it's a little better, it does get me down. And the diet does too!

Also I went to get an eye test and was told I have an incipient cataract....I knew there was something, that's why I went.
So....I need two pairs of expensive glasses!

And I still have 4 appointments in Oxford this month and one for my daughter who is really depressed about her injured back (for MRI scan). I have the transport......
...........etc etc etc feeling sorry for myself again...but would be good to meet, annobel (have I got it right this time?)

I have pm'd you AlieOxon. Would be great to meet you.

Alie tell us what's going on, can we help?

Glad you're not dead Alie. Will you let us know if you're not dead again in due course?
