Anyone from the far North?

Hi Katek, sorry lost your reply, there are so many threads. Would be nice to meet up, let me know when you are coming and see if we can arrange something.

Katek Tue 29-Mar-16 22:16:22

I'm often in Nairn or Inverness - would that be any use for a meet up next time I'm up visiting the dgs?

Tizliz Tue 29-Mar-16 22:06:03

Can I revive this thread? I am north of Inverness and would love to meet up with other gransnetters.

Katek Thu 31-Dec-15 17:56:13

Dotsmam is up that way....I'm up there in August for a wedding.

Katek I'm so sorry.funny though. That was my first cast about discovering gransnet. I understand it a little better now.
Just back from holiday in Scotland. We stayed at the scone palace campaigning our lovely caravan called agstha.
Silly me.
We love Scotland so much. We live south

I'm Katek! Just my user name.

Newbie is coming to Scotland in a couple of weeks time with husband. Staying in scone.
What is Katek?

Dotsmam Thu 02-Apr-15 23:52:14

No I think that I will be spending the holidays in a field! I will catch you all at the next meeting though! You can have an extra slice of cake for me! X

That's a shame Dotsmam, sounds like you won't be able to make it then?

Katek Mon 30-Mar-15 22:07:20

Thought the glasses and moustache might have given him away! (The ram that is, not your DH!)

Dotsmam Mon 30-Mar-15 20:35:53

He was a ram in sheep's clothing!
Iain has three weeks holidays to cover the lambiing starting just after my Easter holidays but at this rate the worst will be over so I am not sure that it was not a cunning plan on his part! Hahaha.

Katek Mon 30-Mar-15 19:57:45

Sneaky devil....what was his disguise?!?

Dotsmam Mon 30-Mar-15 18:30:17

Well I would have been available BUT the flaming has started 3 weeks early!! There must be a tup disguised as a ewe amongst the Shetlanders! Aaaaah!!

Katek Fri 27-Mar-15 12:22:07

Dotsmam, Thistledoo, any good for you?

posie Fri 27-Mar-15 11:06:23

I can't do Fri 17th, but could do 18th or 19th smile

Katek Thu 26-Mar-15 23:42:48

I'm up in Nairn from Friday 17th to Sun 19th....any good for anyone??

Dotsmam Sat 21-Mar-15 06:33:58

Got the first fortnight in April off work so should be able to sneak off for the day.

Katek Fri 13-Mar-15 21:06:27

Is April too soon?

Dotsmam Fri 13-Mar-15 20:36:53

We need to work out a date - preferably before lambing!!

Thistledoo Fri 13-Mar-15 18:42:37

Oooooh, this all sounds wonderful, a meet up in Inverness, Simpsons is grat for coffee cake or even lunch. Count me in.

posie Thu 12-Mar-15 10:56:45

Yes, I think I could manage Inverness. smile Dotsmam if you look at top of the page you'll see "Active", "I'm on", etc., & to the right you'll see Acronyms which will explain all the abbreviations.

Dotsmam Wed 11-Mar-15 22:09:29

I hate driving in Inverness but can hop on the train quite happily to meet up. I don't work on Tuesdays Thursday s and weekends (and school holidays) so the world is almost oyster!

Dotsmam Wed 11-Mar-15 22:06:36

On another topic I am getting a bit lost with the initials. He and vs I realise is granddaughter and grandson but what is Dd and ds for example? confused

Katek Wed 11-Mar-15 22:04:53

Simpsons is lovely....wonder if Posie can get up to Inverness??
