All welcome! smile

Thanks, Grannyknot - will do.

Hi alchemilla smile

Thanks doing the booking. I think a new thread is a good idea.

alchemillamollis Wed 02-Nov-16 18:17:10

This is all booked - shall I start a new thread, with the details in the title? Just to advertise it a bit more clearly with the date, time etc.

Hello! I can make it too!

alchemillamollis Sat 22-Oct-16 18:55:50

Any more for any more? I'll book it next week!

alchemillamollis Tue 27-Sept-16 19:13:26

Don't worry, Purple. I hadn't realised until our first meet-up how ridiculously difficult my username is...apologies to all for it!

Purpledaffodil Tue 27-Sept-16 18:37:50

Sorry for abbreviating your name so strangely alchemillamollis. You will forgive me and book me a seat won't you? wink

Greenfinch Tue 27-Sept-16 12:45:58

That time is perfect for me. I didn't look around much last time as it came on to rain as we left Gerties.Or maybe it had been raining for ages but we were too engrossed our conversation to notice ??

alchemillamollis Tue 27-Sept-16 11:51:12

If 1.00pm suits everyone, then we can go for that. As Purple says, it allows for travelling and shopping - Dorking has amazing shops, and it'll be Xmas shopping time!

Purpledaffodil Tue 27-Sept-16 09:50:50

Goldenspring that's lovely. We met at 1pm last time to give time for travelling and shopping at either end if required. Sure Alcheo will let us know when she books.

Purpledaffodil Tue 27-Sept-16 09:47:34

Thanks for that. I've put 7.12 on the calendar. Seems a long way off, but I suspect it will come round very quickly. shock

Goldenspring Tue 27-Sept-16 08:21:23

Thanks everyone, I've put this date in my calendar. What sort of time would we be meeting up?

Greenfinch Fri 23-Sept-16 21:02:27

Thanks Minimise. Glad you thought of someone else. There may be others who have missed the three too.
Sorry. Tablet having a mind of its own? Will need to write it as two words Mini mouse.
Three should be thread.

Greenfinch Fri 23-Sept-16 20:58:05

Feel free to change your mind later on yogagran .I am sure there will be one or two changes of attendees anyway.

Greenfinch Fri 23-Sept-16 20:55:55

Thanks alchemilliamollis.I would be real!y grateful if you would do the booking again.Things seem to slip my mind these days.

yogagran Fri 23-Sept-16 20:17:26

Thanks for that MiniMouse and Greenfinch. I'm really not sure with a date that far ahead as it depends on too many things, do I feel that I'll have to say no to this meet up. Perhaps I can come back nearer the time when I know what's going on here

MiniMouse Fri 23-Sept-16 14:13:58

Thanks for the date/list Greenfinch. I've emailed Yogagran, so we may be able to add her to the list.

alchemillamollis Fri 23-Sept-16 11:04:42

Thanks for doing the list, Greenfinch. I've put it in the diary. I'd be happy to ring and make the booking nearer the time, unless someone else wants to. Really looking forward to seeing you all again, last time was lovely!

Greenfinch Fri 23-Sept-16 07:53:21

Good idea Grannyknot.I think I will do the same and if the weather is bad I will go into Gertie's for a coffee. Won't be able to get there too early as it is my school run day.

Grannyknot Thu 22-Sept-16 21:40:17

Great, greenfinch thanks for sorting the list (so far) out.

I think I'll go earlier this time (now that I know which bus from the station too) and nosy around the shops before lunch smile

Greenfinch Thu 22-Sept-16 18:43:40

Everyone who has responded seems to be able to make 7th December or to be able to make some re-adjustments so that they can, so let's go for that date .Nearer the time we will settle on a time and book Gertie's if that is where everyone wants to go. So far the interested parties are:
alchemillamollis
cazzajen
Goldenspring
Grannyknot
Greenfinch
Minimouse
purpledaffodil

Others will of course be more than welcome

alchemillamollis Wed 21-Sept-16 22:55:59

Wednesday 7 December is very good for me, but I am relatively easy to please on dates in December so far.

Purpledaffodil Tue 20-Sept-16 21:56:58

Hi, I prefer Fridays, but can do other days if I rearrange school run. 7th looks favourite at the moment doesn't it?

Goldenspring Mon 19-Sept-16 21:29:37

Hi everyone, Fri 2nd is the best date for me. Could manage Mon 5th or Wed 7th if I cancel a couple of things. Thursdays are completely out for me at the moment. Amazing how hard it is to come up with dates suitable for all!
