Doh! I forgot to add the time (but we can decide on that later) - shall we say around 12-ish? It's a lovely town for a spot of shopping, independent shops and craft shops abound! You can tell how excited I am! By the many exclamation marks!

mini you'll love Dorking (even although that is a most unappealing name for a town!) grin

I hope the Doodle poll thingy works in this format, please click on the link below and add your availability! (I usually work on Thursdays and Fridays, but the week after next I've been asked to swop my days, hence I'm offering up a Thursday). Fingers crossed!

Gk I forgot to put on my post that I can do any day except Mondays. I'm not familiar with Dorking, so have no idea about venues. Another adventure wink

yes Wisley for a later date when in Cobham again. Nearest station to Wisley is Weybridge, I believe.

Enjoy your soon to be lunch smile

How exciting! I go off to choir practice and come back to all these replies.

GJ am I correct in thinking that you are talking about a future date when you are on a Surrey visit again? smile I'm also sorry we shall miss out on having you join us for the one planned for soonish.

On this occasion we'll meet in Dorking - actual venue to be confirmed. November suddenly seems so short!

I mean Wisley

MiniMouse Tue 03-Nov-15 21:23:56

I could do Dorking, too. I'd either come by train or bus, depending on the venue.

Greenfinch Tue 03-Nov-15 21:23:17

l am in Berkshire and can get to almost any station. Woking or Weybridge would be easy.In fact anything on the Fleet to Waterloo line if you know it.I am not sure where Sisley is.

granjura Tue 03-Nov-15 20:32:20

Where about are you Greenfinch? Which station would be easiest for you?

yogagran Tue 03-Nov-15 20:14:55

Ooh I could do Dorking, 45 or so minutes away from me

I'd love to join you! I love Wisley; Dorking also good. Wednesdays are best for me. smile

One of us could perhaps pick her up and take back to the nearest train station for her- be it Weybridge or Walton, etc. I always have a car in the UK.

Purpledaffodil Tue 03-Nov-15 18:22:03

I can do Wednesdays usually. Granjura what a shame we will miss you again. Perhaps you could do a PM when you next visit and we could do a special meet up?
Wisley is a great idea, I am an RHS member and the ticket will also admit a guest. However think Greenfinch is coming on public transport and I am not sure how accessible Wisley is.

Greenfinch Tue 03-Nov-15 17:15:52

Can't manage Tuesdays as I have to pick up grandchildren from school Wednesdays are fine.

granjura Tue 03-Nov-15 16:14:34

Just come back from Surrey where we have much family - perhaps one day we will be there at the 'right' time.

Any of you members of RHS and could meet for a visit at Wisley?

Grannyknot Tue 03-Nov-15 15:47:15

Hi everyone,

Purpledaffodil, Greenfinch and moi are planning (have agreed) to meet up in Dorking in Surrey for lunch.

We'd love others in the area to join us.

Please anyone who posts also suggest days that are convenient and maybe even suggest some dates!

Tuesdays or Wednesdays are best for me.
