smileAs there are a few Herts gransnetters who have shown an interest in meeting up, let's do it! I will start the ball rolling by suggesting a possible date but please, anyone who is interested, come forward with your preferred date and venue! We are a bit spread out so as a first suggestion, how about Pearces farmshop cafe on the A10? Ware might also be a good location, and Fanhams Hall does a fab afternoon tea. That would have to be booked of course, which I am happy with, but others might prefer a more 'open house' approach? As it's Easter next weekend, how about the following week, say Wednesday 30th? Please all you local girls (or boys!) of any age, join us for a get together. I would love to meet you all! smile

12.30 it is. Don't forget a brolly - in case it's raining! Oh glory that's the sort of thing I say to DD. I'm not like that really - honest!

Am trolling through Amazon to find a suitable red bag tbuhmm]

We could hand out Gransnet leaflets jacqui60. What if one of us is the SiL we dislike tbuwink or the girl who we bullied at school [tbuworried] mot that I bullied anyone.

Oh, wouldn't that be awful! If so, a good time to make amends!
We could take some leaflets. I have to say I have found it difficult getting others interested in the local site!

Charleygirl Sat 19-Apr-14 19:43:53

May I say that nobody has made it very clear where you are meeting. Not all of us know our way around Herts! Pearce's farmshop cafe on the A10 is not very helpful.

Flowerofthewest Sat 19-Apr-14 23:35:56

Are there leaflets? was kidding confused

Flowerofthewest Sat 19-Apr-14 23:36:43

Oh! maybe a map? not sure how to reproduce one on here though.

Charleygirl, do hope that means you are able to join us on 29th. Here's a link to Pearce's Farmshop's website showing their location and giving directions. www.pearcesfarmshop.com/location

Charleygirl Sun 20-Apr-14 10:11:30

Basketcase thanks for the address etc. The cafe looks lovely but I am afraid that it is too far for me. Enjoy yourselves, I am a trifle envious!

goldengirl Sun 20-Apr-14 18:59:51

Where are you Charleygirl? If the get together is successful perhaps we could move around the County a bit to give others a chance

Charleygirl Sun 20-Apr-14 19:29:01

I live in Harrow London

goldengirl Mon 21-Apr-14 17:59:31

Would Borehamwood or Potters Bar be any good for future meetings Charleygirl - and others? Assuming the one on the 29th is successful!

mrshat Mon 21-Apr-14 20:50:31

Even Watford?grin

mrshat Mon 21-Apr-14 20:55:02

Charleygirl could you manage the Brent Cross suggested as a meet up venue on another thread? Just a thought smile

Flowerofthewest Mon 21-Apr-14 23:34:56

I know - Letchworth Garden City, on main King's Cross to Cambridge line. wink

jacqui60 Sat 26-Apr-14 11:03:08

Just checking we are all ok for our lunch meeting on Tuesday 29th at 12.30. Everyone is welcome!

Flowerofthewest Sat 26-Apr-14 12:02:13

Yep, on to it. Burnt orange cross-shoulder bag, just been "$%£ hair (it's never tidy) foot wear - undecided.

jacqui60 Sat 26-Apr-14 12:22:44

Hi Flower, really looking forward to it. Summer sandals or wellies? let's hope the sun shines on Tuesday sunshine

BasketCase Sat 26-Apr-14 15:25:08

Definitely. smile Red handbag at the ready. As the younger generation say, only three more sleeps.

Flowerofthewest Sat 26-Apr-14 15:43:57

Hey, I say that too. Should be good sunshine

Flowerofthewest Sat 26-Apr-14 15:44:50

Do we wear name (GN names) badges for a laugh.
grin

goldengirl Sat 26-Apr-14 20:17:54

That's not a daft idea Flowerofthewest. I shall wear my sticky label with pride! So that together with my red shoulder bag ..........

Looking forward to meeting everyone although I'll could be still in the recovery stage from my Pilates class!

Flowerofthewest Mon 28-Apr-14 15:53:53

Made DH to to the 'hand ' car wash at weekend, he is certain it's because I am meeting with the grans.

jacqui60 Mon 28-Apr-14 20:58:20

See you tomorrow everyone. I'll be by the plant stand at 12.30, looking out for red/orange/purple handbags. smile

Flowerofthewest Tue 29-Apr-14 10:21:59
