Hi Ladies, this is sounding hopeful. I am away for a few days but will give it some thought and post again soon. Many thanks for the responses. If others would like to make suggestions, places/good days etc. that would be nice. Fingers crossed we can make it work.

Count me in too - I can get to Exeter easily. I'm retired so can manage most days.

Notice - Not that muddle of letters!

Ok, shall we think about an Exeter meet? What days work for people? My non work days are Monday and Friday but I can be fairly flexible given notivmve9

No, not even a gran in anticipation! Exeter isn't too far, I could catch the train.

Hello SpringyChicken. Thanks for responding. Are you a Gran in anticipation? Is Plymouth too far for an Exeter meet for you if anything gets off the ground?

I'm in Plymouth - but not a gran yet!

Hi fellow East Devonian Kezia and hello also from earlier in the year to Cranbrook resident Zoesma. If any of you ever feel like considering a meet, maybe Exeter way or, which might also be possible for Newton Abbot Henetha do keep posting. Open to any other suggestions too. There is also a way of personal messaging which I am ok with but as a newby do not know how to do. Might be nice to see if we can get something off the ground at some time maybe?

I'm in East Devon too!

Hi have just "first posted" on another chat link but am in East Devon and can access Exeter - or would travel to elsewhere if feasible. Wondering if there is any local group or interest in forming one? Hope to hear from other Devon GN members

I’m a Devon gran still living in the town I was born.

There are other grans in Devon ( used to be one of them myself) so keep ‘bumping’ the thread until they notice it.

P.S. Where are you located, Miepl?

henetha Thu 08-Feb-18 11:55:29

Hello! I'm a Devonshire gran... but all my grandchildren call me Nan.
I am not near Cranbrook though, but in the countryside near Newton Abbot.
Welcome to Gransnet. It's great when you get used to it and there are some lovely people and interesting things on here.
I occasionally have a day in Exeter so pehaps we could meet up there, later, when spring is around the corner.

Hello,I am new to web chat,so please bear with me!
Does anyone else out there live near me,Cranbrook,which is a Newtown North of Exeter.
I would like to meet up with some like-minded grannies
