I had a great meet up today with three other gransnetters in Preston. We met in a cafe and spent a lovely couple of hours chatting. We talked on many different topics, found lots in common and got on really well. So much so that we're having another meet up Thursday May 18th, 12 o'clock at Barton Grange garden centre near Garstang for lunch this time! Other grans are welcome to join, just message on here.

pocket4321 I have sent you a private message but I think we have to say today's meet up is cancelled. So sorry, hope to meet you another time.

Nana3 Wed 06-Sept-17 21:35:05

tubbygran okay, hopefully we'll meet next time. Best wishes.

tubbygran Wed 06-Sept-17 19:49:27

I think there may only be two or three of us meeting at Barton Grange tomorrow, so as my journey is an eighty mile round trip, I would prefer to join you when there is a bigger group of ladies.
Hope this is okay and I'll keep my fingers crossed for next time. ?

Hello. Just caught up with this. I'm meeting up with ex colleagues on the 7 th at Barton Grange but not till 1.30! I will look out for you and say hello and hope I can make the next meet up.

Sorry to hear that Nana3 hope your mum improves. See you next time. Perhaps we can have a meeting next month. Weds and Thursday good for me . Have fun x

Just caught up with this arrangement, thanks Nana3. I can't make this week either, sorry, I would have loved to meet up with you all. Next time eh?

Nana3 Sun 03-Sept-17 09:23:22

I'm sorry we won't see you carol257 and seasider. Can we still say Thursday 7th Sept for everyone else who can make it. Would you post then we know who is coming. I'm looking forward to it and meeting pocket4321 and tubbygran.
My Mum is very poorly though, so it could change for me too, sorry, I'll post on here if it does.

seasider Sat 02-Sept-17 08:06:49

Sorry can't make either Wednesday or Thursday that week.

tubbygran Wed 30-Aug-17 16:39:27

Me again! Sorry, but now I am unable to meet on Wednesday.

tubbygran Mon 28-Aug-17 21:12:30

Really looking forward to meeting everyone. I can make both the Wednesday and Thursday.

carol257 Thu 24-Aug-17 19:23:17

Sorry, just realised I can't make the Thursday......if we can make it Wednesday that would be good.......if not hope you all have a good meet up and I will catch the next one ?

carol257 Thu 24-Aug-17 12:48:11

Sounds good to me, Barton Grange on Thursday 7th September ?

Nana3 Thu 24-Aug-17 09:20:42

Is that a decision, Barton Grange, Thursday 7th September?
What time? We enjoyed our lunch there so I would suggest the cafe again about 12 noon.
Everyone very welcome, the more the merrier.

tubbygran Wed 23-Aug-17 19:04:10

I missed these meetings, but would love to join you if you meet in Barton Grange again. I live near Kirkby Lonsdale and lived in Goosnargh, many years ago.

Hi

Would that be the 7th September, I will be away the following 2 weeks ?

seasider Sun 20-Aug-17 21:18:34

Hi Pocket. We hope to meet the second week in September probably Wednesday or Thursday. No venue decided yet but you will be very welcome to join us.

pocket4321 Sun 20-Aug-17 15:42:48

When are you all meeting up again,I would like to come and make friends,I am 70 is that to old,

mazza245 Thu 20-Jul-17 21:52:18

So the second Wednesday or Thursday, whatever date that might be. I'm away at the moment from any calendar or more importantly, my calendar so I can't say definitely but it's a start? How is that for everyone else?

seasider Wed 19-Jul-17 22:57:38

Hi September good for me. I am away until the 5th. Wednesday or Thursday are the best days for me but I can do other days with a bit of notice. We need to think of a good place to meet. Maybe somewhere just off a main rd/motorway that is easy to find.

carol257 Mon 17-Jul-17 10:58:32

Seems like a good idea, although I am away 1st week, but if I can make it I will ?

mazza245 Sun 16-Jul-17 11:42:46

Do you think September when the holiday season might be over with? Preferably not a Monday or Tuesday for me but otherwise, I'm free!!!

Nana3 Wed 12-Jul-17 17:54:07

You would be very welcome middlewoman. We don't have a date yet, would someone like to suggest one?

middlewoman Wed 12-Jul-17 12:46:00

mazza245 Fri 07-Jul-17 22:48:13

Lovely to meet Nana3 and Seasider yesterday, pity there were just the chosen few of us. It would be lovely to see many more people next time, hopefully we pick a more convenient day for everyone. I had to have a small salad again for tea! Still, made up for it today.

seasider Fri 07-Jul-17 00:47:19

Hi Nana. Lovely lunch in the sun and good company. smile
