We had a lovely meet today at the Dunelm Mill ( everybody had left the cafe and they wanted to clean up) grin when we decided to go home.We were all good and didn't have cake ( this time.)Next meet up in around a month.smile

Thanks so much

Hope you had a lovely birthday,brileo. I don't expect any arrangements to be made just for me,but I can't do May 23rd....I can do the next day. I think the following week is half term so can't be sure I can be available.

Cornishgirl777 Fri 28-Apr-17 11:38:28

Posted too quickly (surely there should be an acronym for that?) Happy belated Birthday,Struggling.

nanasam Sat 29-Apr-17 18:20:16

Me too. Can let you know how the baby shower went!

Struggling2do1 Mon 01-May-17 09:45:32

Hi all, shall we agree 30th May at Swindon Outlet. I can pick you up at Dunelm Roses.
It would be nice to have a lunch meet, what do you think?
We need to agree a spot to meet at the outlet.

Struggling2do1 Wed 03-May-17 10:13:47

Just caught up with posts I had not seen before my last post (if you see what I mean). So if the week of 30th is half term then probably best to avoid that. Tuesdays are not written on stone so how about 24th as suggested by Cornish?
Thanks for the birthday wishes.

Cornishgirl777 Wed 03-May-17 17:20:09

Having totally upside down time at the moment,but hopefully 24th will still be ok. Looking forward to it x

rosesarered Wed 03-May-17 17:39:50

Yes, at the moment that is fine for.me on the 24 th too.smile

brileo Fri 05-May-17 08:47:09

At the moment 24th works for me too - hope we can all manage this time.

Struggling2do1 Sun 07-May-17 17:34:46

Shall we agree 24th May? Nanasam, can you make this date? I think for May we meet at Dunelm as usual & perhaps arrange the June meet at the Outlet. It feels a bit complicated to arrange a different venue via this page, better to do so with us all together. Hope you all agree. So 24th May at Dunelm. Hope to see you all soon. X

I'm good to go for the 24th. And greetings from a very warm and sunny Cyprus! sunshine wine

Struggling2do1 Mon 08-May-17 09:46:22

Brilliant that's all of us. Have a fab time in Cyprus nanas am, looking forward to hearing all about it.

Cornishgirl777 Mon 22-May-17 11:27:03

Looking forward to meeting on Wednesday....any ideas on when and where to meet? I'm flexible. Haven't eaten in the Outlet Village,so can't recommend anywhere,but have had lunch in the National Trust HQ which is next to the entrance.

rosesarered Mon 22-May-17 14:03:34

Sorry, haven't looked at this page for a while ( had it in mind we were meeting on the 30th) although I could have done the 24th, now I can't as DGS is poorly and also DD and I am looking after both of them.?
Do hope you all have a lovely meet up at the Outlet Centre, could we also have another meet up there at the following one ( hate to miss out!)
Also could you pm brileo with the details of time /place etc as she can't access this page.?

brileo Mon 22-May-17 15:47:53

Glad to say that I have been able to get into this thread, however I am a bit confused as to where and when we are meeting, is it this Wed the 24th or next week 30th????
Can someone please enlighten me, and if we are meeting at the Outlet, where and what time

Cornishgirl777 Mon 22-May-17 21:35:36

Oops,sincere apologies,I think I've muddled myself and others too. Had such a time recently. Now reread the thread properly and see that struggling sensibly suggested we meet at Dunelm again. That's good for me. Sorry brileo.

brileo Tue 23-May-17 09:21:44

No worries Cornishgirl, so we are meeting tomorrow 2pm at Dunelm, see you then

Struggling2do1 Tue 23-May-17 10:25:31

Hi all, I to have got myself in a muddle! I thought it was today, no worries I can make tomorrow I just need to sort out a clash.
I thought it best to all agree where to meet when we go to the outlet so can talk about this tomorrow and get a clear plan. Sorry you are not able to get to the meet Roses, I hope your DGS & DD get well soon, and you avoid any germs!

nanasam Wed 24-May-17 20:38:33

Great to see you all again today! Have now put our next meeting on my calendar - Wednesday 28th June at 12.30. Meeting at Holland and Barrett's in the Outlet Village for lunch. I'll keep my eyes open for any lunch bargains to be had. Hope you'll be able to make it too, rosesarered. You missed out on cake today! cafe cupcake

Struggling2do1 Wed 24-May-17 21:13:25

Just checked my calendar and I will not be able to make 28th. After making sure we discussed thing properly at our meeting I cannot believe it! We had 29th as a second choice but not sure that this date is ok with you Cornish.
Anyway either go ahead without me or change to 29th, if that's not suitable to all maybe earlier in June or into July.
Sorry, what a pain. X

rosesarered Wed 24-May-17 23:13:42

Glad you had a nice meet up, .....am not sure what's happening now at the end of June grin I can't get to the outlet centre without Struggling so if we change to 29th I could do that.If not, next time.smile

rosesarered Wed 24-May-17 23:15:17

Missed out on cake! ? I knew you would have some eventually.grin

brileo Thu 25-May-17 10:11:33

Great to see you all again, sorry I had to leave early, I can do 29th, no problem. Looking forward to it.

nanasam Sat 27-May-17 09:26:53

29th suits me too. cupcake cafe

Cornishgirl777 Sat 27-May-17 09:58:49

29th it is.
