Would anyone consider a meet up in the Swindon area in the near future?

rosesarered Sun 19-Feb-17 19:45:48

I think I can do that day too ( will know by the end of this week) what time are we meeting?I hope to be able to make any time, but will leave it to others to set a time.

2pm at Dunelm suits me fine, will probably have a cake this time!

rosesarered Sun 19-Feb-17 19:56:19

You devil! grin ?

Cornishgirl777 Mon 20-Feb-17 14:37:10

I'll be there!

Just 'bumping' this thread, in case any others want to come to the meet up at 2pm at the Dunelm Mill Cafe on the outskirts of Swindon ( they do nice cakes.)
Have a good natter, I will look forward to seeing you at the next meet in March, when there is some chance my cough will have vanished.smile

Great fun to meet up again with brileo and Cornishgirl777.
I feel we have a lasting friendship blooming! Looking forward to the next time smile brew

Cornishgirl777 Mon 27-Feb-17 21:49:03

Agreed! Another lovely get together,although we missed roses and struggling.

rosesarered Mon 27-Feb-17 22:15:29

Oh that's good, well, I will be there next time and hopefully struggling will be as well.
Did you do a little light shopping whilst you were there......I could do with some new cushions.smile

Peep Mon 27-Feb-17 22:36:47

Sorry I couldn't be there, hopefully next time!

A very enjoyable afternoon with Nanasam and Cornish Girl, as I am heading up to Scotland for a week with my elderly Mum, on the 23rd March, is everyone available 20th or 21st?

nanasam Wed 01-Mar-17 10:34:18

Either date is good for me.

rosesarered Wed 01-Mar-17 14:01:56

I can only do the 21st March Tuesday date.

Cornishgirl777 Wed 01-Mar-17 16:26:27

I can do either day,though the Tuesday 21st is better.

brileo Thu 02-Mar-17 09:48:48

Great, looks like the 21st will work, hopefully struggling will be able to make it that day too - Dunelm again? or change, I don't mind
I can go anywhere.

rosesarered Thu 02-Mar-17 10:11:55

I would prefer Dunelm as I know where it is...haha.Swindon is a bit of a mystery as to where everything is, and parking could be a problem.At least we have free parking at Dunelm and a quiet cafe.What do others think?

nanasam Thu 02-Mar-17 12:35:46

I'm very happy to do Tuesday 21st at Dunelm. It's a date, girls!

Cornishgirl777 Thu 02-Mar-17 12:55:16

Look forward to it.

rosesarered Thu 02-Mar-17 13:57:36

Me too! ?☕️

Hi All,
I have found my way back into this thread, it took a while! Thanks Roses for your message.
I am taking my daughter for a hospital appointment on 21st in Bath so sadly I will not be able to make it which is a real bummer because I was looking forward to seeing everyone.
Have a great time. I will do my best to make the next one.
L xx

Oh, what a shame, but family committments come first, and we are meeting every month, so hope to see you in April.smile

brileo Fri 17-Mar-17 09:20:55

Struggling, I am so sorry to hear that you can't make the 21st, should we try to come up with another date?. What do the others think?

rosesarered Fri 17-Mar-17 11:10:52

Have consulted the diary, and I could do the following Tuesday 28th March, in the afternoon as usual, could anyone else?

Cornishgirl777 Fri 17-Mar-17 12:42:39

I'll know later today if I'm free that day. Happy to change the date in any case.

brileo Fri 17-Mar-17 18:05:03

Don't want to complicate things, so why don't I miss this month, and you could all come up with another date, I don't feel that it would be right for struggling to miss one to suit me.

rosesarered Fri 17-Mar-17 20:44:54

Struggling can make the 28th Tuesday ( she has pmd me) so can anyone else do this date?
