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

Pleased it went well but I'm envious. Lived in Swindon for 27 years, now 65 miles away. I did wonder if I could make it, maybe with better weather, would that be ok?

Roll on next month, we had such an enjoyable afternoon
Struggling - hope you have a fantastic holiday, look forward to hearing all about it

Great to meet you all.We hope to have this meet up every month from now on, so if anybody else wants to join us, keep checking the Swindon meet up thread.smile
Amazingly, no cake was eaten.....there was a good choice too ( I did have a peek) but we all wanted to either lose weight or not to gain any more.It may well be different next time though.cupcake

Hope you have a lovely meet-up this afternoon. I'm sorry I can't make it after all. Hopefully will be able to come next time.

Hi everyone, I have only just seen your posts. I live close to Swindon & would love to come along and meet you all on Monday 23rd. Not sure how to send my first name to you privately but happy to tell you it's Lorraine. I will dig out a blue scarf.

I have pm'd my first name to each of you

brileo Mon 16-Jan-17 19:41:14

Would blue work for everyone, how about pm'ing each other with our first names, I'll try just now to rosesarered

rosesarered Mon 16-Jan-17 16:48:10

That's good....so, 2 pm at Dunelm cafe Monday next.
What about wearing a certain colour scarf ( I have scarves of every colour so somebody else can choose?)

Cornishgirl777 Mon 16-Jan-17 11:56:39

Great!

brileo Mon 16-Jan-17 11:33:03

I can do next Monday at 2pm - seems like we might have a date, next problem will be how to recognise one another.
I could try to get there early and grab the sofa area at the back of the cafe.

Peep Mon 16-Jan-17 11:06:54

I can do next Monday at 2 as well.

rosesarered Mon 16-Jan-17 10:41:29

That's good........anyone else?
I know there are only a few of us near this area, but it's still difficult to accomodate everybody.I will keep bumping this thread all this week.

Cornishgirl777 Mon 16-Jan-17 10:33:54

I can do next Monday at 2....

rosesarered Mon 16-Jan-17 10:31:11

What about this coming Friday at 2pm or following Monday at same time Brileo and peeps and cornishgirl? smile
