Glass and I were talking the other day about arranging another get-together in the near future in Newcastle upon Tyne (or thereabouts). The weather seems so miserable at the moment (it's snowing heavily here) that it would be a good idea to have something to look forward to.
Add your name if you're interested and suggested dates - I think a month or so on from now would be good.
My DD has a day's leave today, so I have had a quiet day. DGS has had a few bad days (and grandma and grandad a few exhausting ones). I have certainly been sleeping well - it's more tiring when you can't get out, I find. I am keeping my fingers crossed about the shingles, but we've both had chickenpox and didn't have any problems when DD and DS had it 30 years ago.
You have done quite a lot of research Glass where do you think is best? Somewhere we can all get to fairly easily? Have you got a rough idea of numbers?
I think I have lost the plot a little, I will have to go back and do a head count. If we dont want a trek probably the Quayside is best as we have endless choice there.
We are off for a walk I have been waiting all morning for DH to get the baking bug out of his system..... why does he do that when I am trying to be good!!!
Yes Glass plenty to choose from on the Quayside but probably a good idea to book if there are going to be quite a few of us. Any rough ideas of numbers?
I will do a head count when I get back later, if I dont get out of this house now I will end up having a slice of this corned beef pie....... oh the smell!!!!!
Thought we were going to As You Like It Glass? It's near to Jesmond Metro so anyone coming by train can just hop on to the metro. Really don't mind though
Definitely coming. Don't have a major preference. However, it is probably best if you don't take me back to somewhere where I have to apologise for the last time I was there. Happy to fall in with what suits everyone else as long as there isn't going to be too much travelling around on public transport. I'm just looking forward to seeing everyone.
number I know it was an outside chance of you coming, but I was hoping you could make it. But there is always the leaving lunch for absent in April we would all love to see you.
Well you lot are not much help are you you should know by now I am the most indecisive person you could meet.
I don`t want folk to think that I don`t want to come, because I`d like nothing better, but as I don`t have my little childminding job anymore, I also don`t have any money of my own either. I`ve priced up the train fare to Darlington, and can`t understand why it`s almost double the fare to Newcastle, and I`m afraid that £92 is rather a lot for a day, or part day, out. I`ll console myself with the thoughts of you all having a great time.
