See some of you tomorrow, around 11:00 in John Lewis's coffee shop. I'll be sitting with a piece of paper on the table, that says ' Gransnetters!' I have a grey bob, longish! cafe

Thanks * merlot* ,I too am looking forward to meeting with every one smile

Good idea, dte. I can park close to the bit where you walk through from the station - by Timpson's kiosk.

I've sent you a pm with my car reg. and mobile number

Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Thanks merlot..can meet you in tesco car park if easier....dont want to start the day with a ticket for loitering with or without intent or worse still kerb crawling or soliciting grin

merlotgran Tue 05-Sept-17 10:15:50

That sounds fine, dte. Plenty of time to get to the Park and Ride at Milton.

I'll PM you my mobile number as well as my car reg so you can spot me being moved on in the car park. grin

Lindylou51 Mon 28-Aug-17 18:12:00

Perfect for me.

Shall we go for Wednesday 20 September, 11:00 at John Lewis's coffee shop? I'll get there a bit early and put a 'Gransnet' sign on the table. It will just be a piece of A4 paper on the table. Nothing too obvious and attention attracting!!!

merlotgran Thu 24-Aug-17 21:01:06

We need to allow half an hour to drive down the A10 to Milton park and ride then another half an hour to get to Drummer Street (might be quicker than that) then approx. ten minute walk to John Lewis.

downtoearth Thu 24-Aug-17 20:41:08

No but I can find out merlotsmile

merlotgran Thu 24-Aug-17 13:59:39

I can manage both dates.

Do you know train arrival times in Ely Downtoearth?

Lindylou51 Thu 24-Aug-17 12:19:12

Wednesday 20th is better for me. I am on holiday on 27th.

downtoearth Thu 24-Aug-17 08:40:30

Can do either ..looking forward to itsmile

NonnaW Tue 22-Aug-17 13:48:34

Sounds good to me. I can do either date, whichever suits most people. Look forward to it.
Do we have to carry a copy of the Times and wear a red rose?

jacalpad Tue 22-Aug-17 11:08:00

It is going to be quite difficult to find a day everyone can make, as people seem to have different commitments on different days! Quite a few of you seem to be able to do a Wednesday. How about we make our first meeting on a Wednesday and, if all goes well, do a different weekday in October or November? How does 11:00 on Wednesday 20 or 27 September suit? We can go with the more popular date. How about John Lewis's cafe in Cambridge? cafe cupcake
