Hi everyone, I am a new member and I couldn't find any active groups for this area.

Hi... good to meet you all ( & Greenfinch again) smile I hope you all got to trains /buses in time and had smooth journeys home. I was so busy trying to remember who was who I realise, only now, that we were one missing and I did not even ask. Hope you are OK cazzajen ?

Hi and thanks everyone, yes good -with still more chats - train-trip home with alchemillamollis after a very enjoyable lunch.

Lovely to see purpledaffodil, greenfinch, minimouse again and meet penstemmon.

I think cazzajen sent apologies smile but alchemillamollis will know!

Let's do Dorking again in December!

Lovely meeting up with you all today! Bus ride home was almost as 'exciting' as the one to Dorking - I think the drivers were ex-Formula 1!! I don't know what the speed limit is down the country lanes, but ...... phew!

Yes, a December gathering would be good. I imagine Dorking will be very C*******ssy and festive looking.

Thanks for your company everyone.It was a very enjoyable afternoon and lovely to meet MiniMouse and catch up with the others again.Journey home was uneventful after I eventually found the bus stop ! The train was crowded due to the previous one having been cancelled. I am up for a Christmas meeting in Dorking.We ought to pencil in a date now .Any suggestions?

alchemillamollis Fri 02-Sept-16 19:06:19

Yes, sorry, I should have passed on Cazzajen's apologies when everyone was there. blush I had a really lovely time, so good to meet you all. thanks

Christmas in Dorking sounds great. Probably early in December is best, before we all get frantic?

Are Fridays best?

Greenfinch Fri 02-Sept-16 20:07:29

I am fairly flexible apart from Tuesdays.

MiniMouse Fri 02-Sept-16 20:13:52

I can juggle most days around, apart from Mondays.

Purpledaffodil Fri 02-Sept-16 22:47:56

Lovely to see you all today. I think a Christmas meetup is a good idea. Gorgeous Gerties was full of pretty bits when we met before in November/December.
Had an interesting journey home. The Bluetooth on my car threw a wobbler and I had a ringing phone coming through the loudspeakers all the way home. It would only stop if I turned off the engine, which was not an option. confused

Hi anyone one from littlehampton area

Hi, How are you all. Anyone from Littlehampton

Greenfinch Thu 12-May-22 11:30:04

Hi Helen this is a very old thread almost entirely involving the grans who used to meet occasionally in Dorking. Not that it matters but you would do better to begin a new thread entitled Littlehampton/West Sussex which would attract people living in that area. I think most grans would think Surrey is a little bit too far.

Hi Helen. I'm 5 miles along the sea, 10 miles along the road

Hello Helen
I’m a bit late to the party! I am West Sussex also...I love a nice walk along Littlehampton beach front.
It would be nice to get the West Sussex group active don’t you think?
