Edinburgh Spring coffee and cakes

I hope you can come too, scotsgran. It would be nice to meet another west of Scotland gran

I'll be there also

....my one weakness - oh, and black pudding rolls - though perhaps they won't have those in the National Gallery!

Good to see you Baubles.

Elizabeth1 is coming, too. I'm just letting you know, Elegran, in case she hasn't got time to log on just now.

scotsgran, it will be lovely to meet you!

I'll be there too!

Newleaseoflife will be there. That is 7 so far. If we can tempt Glass with cake it will be 8.

Bags there's a message for you on the local forum, on that coffee/cake thread.

This thread should really be on there, to save hopping back and forth.Too late to worry now.

Good, grannygreyhips see you there. Why hips? Is that the only part of that is grey?

And good that Elizabeth1 will be there. She is relatively new too.

Yes, and I'm keeping them well covered! My mum used to call me grannygreyhips when I was a child as seemingly I was very serious! Some things just stick.........! I bet I was a right wee pain. In the neck.

Or the - er - hips?

Yes, maybe that too ha ha!

It is now less than a fortnight to this. The current names and numbers are listed on http://local.gransnet.com/forums/edinburgh/local-active Could you all check that I have got it right, and let me know there if there are any changes? (I'll get you all looking at the bally Local Forum if it's the last thing I do . . .)

There are still places booked (we are at 10 at the moment) but not taken up, and they will add extra if needed, so there is room for more. Princes St Gardens will be looking lovely then.

Should have blued that link local.gransnet.com/forums/edinburgh/local-active

Message for you in t'other place, elegran.

Thanks Bags

I have followed the link but can't seem to be able to access the list. I'm definitely coming on tne 11th. Is it still in the national gallery?

Yes, it is still in the Scottish Cafe in the National Gallery, Grannygreyhips and you are on the list.

The link works for me. Ittakes you to the list of active threads on the Local Ed forum, and the coffee and cake thread is on there.

My new name on the local site is newleaseoflife so please don't count me twice. oooo so confusing for some. (Especially me) look forward to seeing ya all. Cake and tea yum yum

Thanks Elegran. Still can't access the site. My DH blames the ipad but Ithink it's just me! What time are we meeting?

The Scottish cafe at the Gallery serves afternoon tea (£14.95) from 3 to 5, and tea/coffee and cake all day, so we have a table booked for 3 o'clock.

In practice, I mean to go in earlier (aiming for 2 pm) to tell them the latest numbers (11 at the moment) and then sit with a cuppa and my Kindle, so if anyone is early they will not be alone.

Elizabeth1 If we count you twice, could you manage two lots of afternoon tea?

I shall be with you all in spirit...

Hi I am coming and I'm really looking forward to meeting you all. Coffee is my life you can't beat a frothy latte not to strong and a cake that's even more tempting. Anne
