I think it is about time we got together again.
Would anyone like to suggest a date in April or at least say what days of the week they can or cannot make. After Easter would be good.

Coffee and cake - what could possibly go wrong grin

I really enjoyed the morning and didn't dare have any lunch after my huge piece of chocolate gateau.
See you all again soon I hope

Looking forward to seeing you Auntieflo.Are you a great granny yet ?

Auntieflo Fri 07-Apr-17 10:27:04

Greenfinch, you are a mind reader, iI was just going to look and see if there was a reminder. All being well, see you on Monday.

Greenfinch Fri 07-Apr-17 09:52:21

Just to remind everyone about our meet up in Reading on Monday at Pat Val.I have asked them to reserve the usual round table.Because you don't all know my name I have reserved under the name of The Grannies much to their amusement.As I was leaving I heard one of them saying "someone is going to have a laugh on Monday when they open the book and see table 21 reserved for the grannies"grin There should be 5 or 6 of us but anyone else is welcome of course. Looking forward to seeing you all there.

Have a good time everyone!, I'm sorry that I won't be able to join you all this time. I'm actually in U.K. for a few days over Easter but already seem to be doing two things in different directions each day! Maybe next time.

GdnGuru flowers and my best wishes for you.

Greenfinch Tue 28-Mar-17 12:24:40

So sorry to hear about your DH GdnGuru246 I have been wondering about you. You must feel very raw at the moment but it will be absolutely lovely to see you on 10th.So glad you made contact.

GdnGuru246 Tue 28-Mar-17 12:10:54

Hello All - been off line for a while as DH was very poorly after Christmas and died three weeks ago today, which would have been his 69th birthday. Blasted cancer!

Anyway - would love to meet up 10th April at PatVal again - it's in my diary now.

Greenfinch Fri 17-Mar-17 11:16:00

Glad you can make it Auntieflo.

I can do the Monday. Pat Val is fine as long as they still do the strawberry gateau grin

Greenfinch Thu 16-Mar-17 19:19:18

Penstemmon cannot make the Thursday so will the Monday be OK with you Auntieflo?

Auntieflo Thu 16-Mar-17 11:32:49

Preference for me is a Thursday and Pat Val. But am easy .

Greenfinch Thu 16-Mar-17 11:05:32

I will pm Penstemmon to see f she can make either of the dates. Does anyone have a preference for time or venue

Auntieflo Wed 15-Mar-17 09:07:25

Either date suits me as well, at the moment.
