Hi everyone, I met Alchemillamollis for lunch last week and we thought, "How about arranging another meetup in Dorking, suggest the week commencing 26th March?" smile

As a starter for ten please remind me which days of the week are the best for people and then we'll narrow it down.

All welcome!

Full credit to Grannyknot for the thread title grin Glad you like the new Molly moniker.

Greenfinch Wed 08-Mar-17 07:08:17

I love the title of our thread.grin

Purpledaffodil Tue 07-Mar-17 22:17:51

Thanks Mollie. Much prefer new abbreviation grin

Greenfinch Tue 07-Mar-17 18:13:38

Thanks from me too. Looking forward to it.?

Goldenspring Tue 07-Mar-17 13:41:39

Thank you for booking, alchemillamollis. See you then!

Grannyknot Mon 06-Mar-17 16:01:13

Thanks molly smile

alchemillamollis Mon 06-Mar-17 14:48:50

Yay, that's all booked.

If anyone else wants to join us, please do!

alchemillamollis Mon 06-Mar-17 12:24:46

I think I'd like the short form to be "Molly" - that could work? What a daft thing I was to choose AlchemillaMollis, duh.

I've emailed Gertie's but I'll follow up with a phone call this afternoon.

Grannyknot Sat 04-Mar-17 13:03:58

12 it is then. Thanks alchemilla (I can't bring myself to call you "alkie"!) smile

Glad it was a case of all ending well for your crisis.

alchemillamollis Mon 27-Feb-17 16:46:12

Thanks, Greenfinch; yes, it feels better - the GP we just saw was amazing. (Deliberately being obscure, here, of course! I don't feel I can go into detail online and anyway it concerns another person's privacy.) A good GP can sort out so much in just 10 minutes. Phew.

Greenfinch Mon 27-Feb-17 16:39:55

12 noon suits me fine.I hope things have been sorted for you today alche.

alchemillamollis Mon 27-Feb-17 11:05:09

It looks like we should go for early on Monday 27 March; how about 12 noon? I'll book it. Just dealing with a family crisis today, but should be able to get on to it tomorrow. I'm sure Gertie will accommodate us. So glad that those that can come, can come; hope to see you again at another one, Minimouse and Penstemmon. thanks

Grannyknot Fri 24-Feb-17 20:02:20

And greenfinch too! I knew I'd leave someone out. Looks like we'll be a nice big table.

Grannyknot Fri 24-Feb-17 20:01:12

Hi mini sorry you can't make it, and lovely if you could come goldenspring and purpledaff. Sorry you can't make it penstemmon.

alchemillamollis has said she will book, so will leave timing up to her. I think it will be 12:30.

Bellsnwhistles Fri 24-Feb-17 18:53:00

what time are we meeting? 12.30? 1pm? or earlier?
the earlier, the better for me but will go with the majority.

Goldenspring Fri 24-Feb-17 17:42:50

Hello ladies, I was unable to join you last time so I'd like to make up for that! Mon 27 March is OK for me, but I might have to leave a bit earlier as I have an appointment mid afternoon.

MiniMouse Thu 23-Feb-17 13:51:45

Hello Gertie Girls! Yes, I'm still here - when broadband permits!! New Infinity box has just arrived, so I'll have a bash at setting it up this afternoon. I could be gone for some time . . . . .

Unfortunately, I can't do Mondays, but please don't change the day just because of me, I'll join in another time.

Greenfinch Thu 23-Feb-17 13:32:31

I see you are Mini. Will you be able to join us ?

Greenfinch Thu 23-Feb-17 13:29:17

Is Minimouse still around? She came to the last one but one.

Penstemmon Thu 23-Feb-17 11:17:58

Oh dear, I have a busy diary until 20th March!

I always have to be back in Godalming by 2:45 on Tues/Thurs for school pick up.

In March I have work booked in or WI & governor events on other days. Gets clearer in April but am away 1-16 May on holiday.

Sorry not to be able to make 27th

Purpledaffodil Wed 22-Feb-17 16:06:14

I think I can do Monday 27th. Depends on delegating school run. Pencil me in please.
Thanks for organising GK.

Grannyknot Wed 22-Feb-17 15:38:44

Hi bellsnwhistles lovely to hear from you smile and everyone else of course!

Looks like we may meet on a Monday...

Greenfinch Wed 22-Feb-17 15:12:42

Actually Monday 27th would suit me best too but the other days are OK apart from Tuesday.

Bellsnwhistles Wed 22-Feb-17 13:26:27

I'd love to meet up with you again at gertie's. Monday 27th would suit me best but could also do Tues, Wed or Thurs.

alchemillamollis Wed 22-Feb-17 09:46:56

Thanks for starting the thread, Grannyknot.

Any day except Wednesday that week would be good for me.
