Newcastle Meet up

Just in case, and I`m not saying I`m coming, but just in case............. How many railway stations are there in Newcastle, and which one would I need to go to? I tried to find out fares to Newcastle a few weeks ago, putting in hypothetical dates, and each time there wasn`t a train on those dates! I`d love to come if I can make it.

It would be great to meet up with you again before you go, absent - maybe there'll be a chance for Gally and I (and whoever else could make it) to come down.

I am planning on leaving the country forever in late April or early May. I have to be in New Zealand by 21 May or my visa becomes invalid and I haven't the heart, energy or funds to apply all over again. Any time before then works for me and the more the merrier.

I'll just go with the flow and see what happens. Rather come down with Gally, so maybe later on, if you have another meet up?

Great moomin I wouldnt worry too much about that

I would like to be included please but I'll be away 3-10 March so end of February would suit me, however I'm a bit of a light-weight when it comes to wine

Marelli Gally it would be great to see you in Newcastle.

As DD is taking next Friday off for me to go to Edinburgh as late in Feb would be better for me, but if thats not possible I would have to use up a few brownie points

Hopeful ?

I'm interested but will be away for all of March! May have to catch up another time. Marelli and I were only talking of a visit to Newcastle when we met on Tuesday.

Any day ok for me.

Any idea when, though?

Wow! I am away for less than an hour and you all jump onboard.

An idea when, though?

I can't do Tuesdays as I have my DGS. I was wondering about a Wednesday or Thursday towards the end of February? We'll also need to put our heads together about where to meet.

gillybob I'm wounded. I always get on the right train and so far I have managed to wake up just as it pulls into my station. However, there's bound to be an occasion when I wake up at King' Cross – it's only a matter of time. Incidentally, I didn't say which bottle – but, obviously, I meant the last one.

When are you having it? I would love to join in and I bet a couple of others would, as well (won't put their names on, just in case)!

Unless its a Saturday and I am a free woman

jane its gillybob you need to watch, ask her about Red wine

absent you and glass will have some assistance with consuming the liquid refreshment this time, as I will be leaving the car at home and coming on the bus.

End of the bottle Absent? Shouldn't that be end of the case?

As the saying goes you can lead a gran to the station but you can't make her get on the right train !

Of course absent

As long as glass agrees to steer me back to the station at the end of the bottle afternoon, I should love to come.

I'd like to come

Add me as long as I have notice to arrange for DD to have time off work for the DGC.

Don't have to ask twice GillieB Count me in !
