Oxfordshire Gransneters

There are quite a few of us, but we need a bit of notice before a meet up.We have met at the Ashmolean before, it's a good venue.

I would be very happy to have another meet up in Oxford.I certainly enjoyed the last one at the Ashmolean.

....I'm in!

Huh! why is my post not showing on the thread?

Yes, include me in any planned meeting. I missed the last one (Ashmolean) because it clashed with a course I was doing.

The cafe in the Town Hall is very cosy but perhaps a bit small. I can't believe it is two years since we last met.

Time flies, doesn't it? The Town Hall cafe may be a bit small as you say, only a few tables in it. Anyway, I always like a look round the Ashmolean, I visit the Worcester and other china tea services ( there is even a bench next to them to sit and adore them) Once, on a quiet day, just me in that area, I sat there for so long a security guard kept an eye on me, haha.

Let us start by setting a date. Here are three dates at random in June that I can manage: 2nd, 8th, 14th. Once we have a date we can agree a venue.

June is better than May for me too, and will try and fit into dates that suit others, I can always switch other appointments around.

Likewise.

Thursday's are best for me

Oh dear, rules me out then. Thursday's are DH's weekly blood tests and therefore "ring fenced".

can re-arrange for Monday and Friday?

I had no idea there were so many of us. ?
I am happy to fit in with any agreed
date or time.
If the Ashmolian is chosen, I could travel in by bus.?

Mondays are probably best for me too

Whilst I remain keen to be part of the Oxford Gransnet get-together, I have been happy to notice that several of us live within easy reach of Abingdon; and that they have indicated an interest in a more local, Abingdon meeting.
The big question is, 'Where shall we meet?'
I may just have the answer.
Three years ago, I bought a flat in a
small block of retirement flats. One of the facilities of our building is a very comfortable lounge, with a small kitchen for
making tea, coffee and snacks.
We are to be found, just on the left, before Caldecott Road meets the Thames. ( OX14 5 5ET) Turn left into Mill Paddock.

I would be delighted to host a party of Gransnetters for morning coffee, or afternoon tea.
Would any of you be interested in meeting there?
Best regards,
Leonora.

Leonora, yes.

Leonora , yes, that's a good idea.

There is also a teashop in West St Helen's Street. All pretty teapots and traditional teashop menu. I can not remember what it is called. (Senior moment!!)

that's a good name for a tea shop!

New to Gransnet, happy to meet in Oxford or Abingdon, or arrange a meeting in Witney (where I live).

Hello dramatictessa and welcome

Thank you, roses. I've been doing some stalking for a couple of weeks, thought it was time to make myself known

Hope my stalking comment hasn't put you all off me! It was a joke
