Planning a meet up for grans who live in or around the North Wales area.
Desperately seeking those who want to liven and stimulate discussions on the Conwy forums.
If you are interested in getting together for a lovely lunch and getting to know new people in the flesh then come across to Conwy site we will be meeting up at the end of June/beginning July. Lets start the new Conwy grans and gramps group. grin

Just caught up with this thread! Sorry, June, I was referring to a thread Frank started saying he'd booked a holiday for himself and Andie in Llandudno - I was wondering whether he'd be available on the 17th, that was all! Hope you had a good meet-up. smile

Hi Ana would be good to meet you if you are around on the 17th July Venue still secret till the week before if someone guesses the venue in Llandudno then the tea is free for that person.

Ana Thu 20-Jun-13 22:45:50

Hmm...perhaps not, but I like his posts anyway! grin

Nonu Thu 20-Jun-13 22:28:39

Will anyone ever meet Frank , I ask myself ???

Ana Thu 20-Jun-13 21:51:34

Nonu, I'm not trying to matchmake! grin
It's just that juneh is trying to get her local Conwy site going and there's a meet-up sometime soon - Frank said he couldn't make it but it would be nice if someone could lay to rest the idea that he is a Union Bar wind-up...wink

Nonu Thu 20-Jun-13 21:33:15

ANA, you could be a matchmaker , aka Barbra Striesland , they would have a very happy time together , wish I could join in but i am looking after my garden after 5 weeks of neglect .

smile

Ana Thu 20-Jun-13 21:12:03

juneh, have you seen Frank's thread 'I have booked a holiday for me and Andie in Llandudno'? Perhaps you could arrange to meet up! sunshine

juneh Thu 20-Jun-13 20:35:39

Hi HUNTERF I forgot to say that you only need to be over 50 to be on Gransnet, it's OK if there are no grandchildren. If your friend does have a new grandchild then that's quite an event.

juneh Sat 15-Jun-13 20:47:07

Hello HUNTERF you are very kind that would be great, it might be good to get a couple coming along especially new grandparents smile

HUNTERF Sat 15-Jun-13 09:34:45

The person I worked with now lives in Conway and is due to become a granddad on the 15th of July.
I will tell him about Gransnet. Probably it may be his wife who joins. I have met her but do not know her that well.
Obviously the child could be delayed and they may be busy on the 17th in any case but again they may be able to make a future meeting or probably they may be able to make it at very short notice.

Frank

juneh Fri 14-Jun-13 16:59:29

If anyone on the forums is in Llandudno on the 17th July at 2.30 let me know and we can arrange for you to come to the meetup for tranditional afternoon tea. You need to put yourself on the Conwy forum so that I can get your name listed [cake] smile

juneh Fri 14-Jun-13 16:56:41

Oh what a shame but as you say next time if this one is successful then we will be doing them on a regular basis. Do you know anyone over fifty living in Conwy if so encourage them onto the Gransnet Conwy site forum. smile

HUNTERF Thu 13-Jun-13 11:46:57

juneh

I live in Sutton Coldfield but I have provisionally planned to visit somebody I worked with in London for a couple of days towards the end of June so I could probably fitted the meeting in on that basis.
Unfortunately I can not make July 17th.
I will try to make a North Wales meet up in the future but hopefully I will find a nearer one in the mean time.
Andie likes North Wales as well.

Frank

Oldgreymare Thu 13-Jun-13 09:37:15

juneh I shall be back in Somerset by then, so will be denied the pleasure of meeting you all (Frank will remain a mystery hmm). Enjoy your meet-up.

JessM Thu 13-Jun-13 06:27:01

Just that Frank does not post a profile of himself with a picture and we would love to know if the fitness regime (all those classes he keeps telling us about) are paying off. Not that we are ever nosy grin Hope you manage to get up a group in your (lovely) area.

juneh Thu 13-Jun-13 00:12:56

Sorry JessM not sure what you mean confused

JessM Wed 12-Jun-13 17:01:14

You might be able to flog the photos of that occasion juneh hmm

juneh Wed 12-Jun-13 15:58:20

Hi to HunterF of course grandads are most welcome to come the date is set for July 17th in Llandudno it will be afternoon tea at 2-30 venue to be revealed nearer the date.
I am sorry to have replied sooner I did say JUne originally but changed it in the hope to have more numbers. Do you live in north wales?

HUNTERF Mon 03-Jun-13 20:19:00

I am going to come up to Llandudno in the near future and may be able to make it depending on the date.
Can granddads of girls only come?.

Hello Annsixty I live just next to the Little Orme on Penrhyn Bay not five minutes from HOMe from HOme. I am going to arrange a meetup of grans at the end of June if you are around feel free to join us for lunch. Time and date will be posted now just need more takers. sunshine

annsixty Mon 03-Jun-13 15:54:25

Hi juneh you have made me very nostalgic as we visited Rhyd-Y-foel very regularly until 18 months ago . We would drive into Llandudno through Rhos and I think Home from Home was at the bottom of the hill before climbing, then round the corner to see the sweep of the bay laid out in front or your eyes.Very happy memories.
