Yes Tegan! it would be so good to have you with us, fingers crossed here!

Looks like either 15th or 22nd are ok for most of us. Tegan - we could go for 22nd for you but when might you know whether the teeny tiny question mark develops into something to stop you coming? Hope it doesn't as it would be good to have you with us!

Just back from Northumberland. 22nd would be best for me as I'm probably going to be away on 15th, but stick with 15th if it's best for everyone as there is a teeny tiny question mark over the 22nd pour moi.

The 15th or 22nd would be good for me too. So looking forward to my first GN meet up.

15th would be good for me, 22nd also looks possible.

Thats good news Cranberry - can we hear from the other Gransnetters please before my diary is highjacked by someone else (DH)?

I would love to meet up again, the dates mentioned, 15th or 22nd October are fine with me, I am happy to try and fit in with whatever suits everyone else.

15th or 22nd October would be good for me.

Are we getting a date fixed for October soon please?

Went today to William Morris/Warhol exhibition which ends on Sunday. Spent much longer than I expected there. Interesting parallels drawn between them both. Also found a room of little owlets less than 1m tall, beautifully decorated , mainly by schools.

Tegan - going to the gallery tomorrow (I'll tell you it's rubbish if you like!) and also going to bag a few more owls! Hope you had a good trip north!

Given that, when I returned to the gallery I forgot to do the exhibition, please tell me that it's rubbish, Elrel [by the way, there's a lot of stuff about Warhol on BBC4 at the moment.He actually lived with his mum#notveryrock'n'rollthatisit and got someone to travel to The Factory each morning disguised as him so that it would look as if he got up in the morning#imighthaveimaginedthatbitthough]

I need to go before 6th September as I want to go to an exhibition which ends then. If anyone wants to join me in the tearoom for coffee that would be good.

I met up with my "newly discovered" half brother and his wife there recently, still promising myself I will look at the paintings one of these days!

...some of us are keen to have another meet up. I think the art gallery was a good place, especially now it has been re vamped. I'm away on and off quite a lot over the next couple of months, but if any of the 'locals' arrange something I'll do my best to fit in. The good thing about the art gallery is that there's no need to book a table so numbers can be more flexible.
