When we had the Midlands meet up we each tried to wear (something) purple which unfortunately led to me approaching the odd lady or two asking if she was "One of us" only to be met with a slightly alarmed look and rapid shake of the head. blush

Apart from Watford we're all along the A1M. There's hotels eg Novotel at Knebworth but I don't know of any tearooms per se except at Walkern which is a bit out of the way.

Yes, what would we wear? A sticker saying Gransnetter? It's got to be something easy to spot smile

PMs don't go away. At the top of the inbox page, there are two arrows< and >. you click on > to go back to old messages. Is that what you needed to know Fow?

Is there any way I can retrieve personal messages as I have forgotten some of the areas people live. I think, Watford, Hitchin, WGC, Letchworth Garden City (THE FIRST GARDEN CITY) Hatfield. I think that is all I have so far please correct if wrong.smile

haven't made list yet, will do asap. any others please pm me and afternoon tea in a nice teashop sounds lovely. What will we all wear to recognise each other - any ideas ladies?

mrshat Thu 21-Mar-13 20:49:53

A nice afternoon tea somewhere easily accessible in mid Herts might be a nice idea in early June? FloweroftheWest are you keeping toll of who lives where? Petallus lives not far from me. I'm sure there must be more of us in Hertfordshire and environs! grin

joannapiano Thu 21-Mar-13 16:28:24

I live in Herts too. It's a big county though.

goldengirl Thu 21-Mar-13 14:59:15

I'm up for it as long as there are loos nearby - and I mean near by, not hiking distance smile. A picnic would be nice but is weather dependent. Afternoon tea in a nice hotel / cafe / restaurant perhaps?

Flowerofthewest Thu 21-Mar-13 10:41:17

Anyone else up for it wink

Flowerofthewest Thu 21-Mar-13 10:40:53

We could suss out where we live and find a central point. hmm

Flowerofthewest Thu 21-Mar-13 10:39:52

I think a summer picnic somewhere central would be lovely. I love summer picnics! Soo excited but not last week in May or first week in June please.

I wonder if pet is missing Gn grin

gracesmum Wed 20-Mar-13 22:00:54

Of course! She's given us up for Lent hasn't she? Hang on Herties - wait for Petallus!

dustyangel Wed 20-Mar-13 21:58:42

Oh Gracesmum, but Petallus is resisting tempation and bonding with her grandson as well until Easter Sat/Sun at least. Maybe the Herts. folk can delay their meeting until after that?

gracesmum Wed 20-Mar-13 21:11:22

I think - but correct me if I am wrong - that Petallus lives in your neck of the woods too.
