If we fell off the tree?

Green I am between glass and absent

I'm on the rail line to London, but it's gone expensive.....

I thought we'd lost the OP!
I want to say, re relatives letting people know, that I copied the two poems from another thread, thinking that they could be a message....and then added my username and password for Gransnet - I will add others when I think of them - printed them and they are in my secret drawer, with my will and other things.
Only my daughter and my executor know where it is.

Even nearer to London.

I'm about 40 miles away from Oxfordshire.

Getting back to the OP, I'm not planning to fall off for ages yet. Took my blood pressure this morning 115/58!

Maybe some localised meetings, to start off with? I think a HUGE meeting would overwhelm some members - me included!

What we need is for Tech to sort out a map with locations pinpointed where everyone lives, then we could see....a bit like when you are looking for somewhere to stay on hotel sites.

Thanks, Geraldine! Be prepared for lots of daft questions and requests coming your way!

GREAT!

I'll put a thread up, then? See where we go from there?

How about Oxfordshire, where do you count that as? (I never can tell what forecast to look at!)

iC in charge. In other words
Organise!.
I'll help, but because I still work, don't have enough time to do it!

What we need to do is
1 open a new thread where all interested can sign
2 establish where everyone lives
3 Get GNHQ involved
4 decide what sort of meeting we want (just a lunch, a weekend, lectures?)

I will personally come back from wherever and HAUNT YOU so you'll know!

Where are you, Grandmanorm?

Could I come please. I live just south of Perth. I don't comment too much, although I often type stuff, reread it then wipe it!!
I love Gransnet. Oh I have Skype but it isn't too good on my laptop.

Don't know what IC means, jeni ! And of course, there are a LOT down in the south!

Give enough notice for me to get across the Channel!

That should be in the south!

There's a lot of us southwest as well!

Great green looks like you're IC.
(GNHQ did say they'd help if possible)

If we know in advance you can pick train tickets up at a reasonable cost, the rail companies usually release the special offers in 3 month blocks.

Perhaps we should figure out how many would like to meet, and then choose a location that works out for us all? I'm in Fife, as is Gally with Elegran in Edinburgh. *Soop is Argyll (Kintyre) as is Bags(Argyll). em, should she want to come, is in Dundee, I think? Glass is further south, in Newcastle, and I think Absent is in Darlington? Then, we have the GN's in the Liverpool area. Maybe a little bit further north than Birmingham for a venue, perhaps?

Well Birmingham is central lots of hotels
