Hi to all Northumberland Gransnetters!

I'd like to arrange a meetup for us in September- my suggestion is:

Monday, 11th September at Heighley Gate garden centre near Morpeth at 10.30.

Some of us have been trying to get together for a little while, so I thought I'd get a bit specific! ?

All welcome, so please get back to me to let me know your thoughts on date and venue - I know that this could mean a bit of a travel for some of us, but it would be lovely to meet up.

Hi

Just a quick post to suggest a meetup on Wednesday 21st Feb around 10am.

We can do Costa at Heighleygate again, but we will be happy to mix it up a bit and try another venue.

All welcome!

Hello Folks. I moved to Northumberland recently, and would like to join you for meet up.
Where exactly do you meet up, and how long does your get together last.?

Welcome Kupari45.
So far we have met up at Costa in Heighley Gate Garden Centre just north of Morpeth and at Dobbies Garden Centre near Ponteland, between 10am and 12 noon.
Watch this thread for where next week's meet up will take place.

Hi Brenda

It ll be great if you can come along.

Aw, Janey, I've just seen this! I'm booked to teach the Home Education group how to crochet on Wednesday.
What is going wrong. I'm under an hour away from Heighley Gate too.

Awww, Hilda

We’re looking forward to meeting you.

Please let us know a date in early March that suits you - we decided Wednesday was good for most of us most of the time-but we can work around that.

Hello Folks.
Unfortunately I cant join you tomorrow. Have finally managed to get an Electrician- so I have to wait in tomorrow until he has been and gone.
I have been living in Northumberland for 3 weeks now, and just know I am going to be very happy here.
Somethings are taking a bit of getting used to- for instance shortage of plumbers, electricians etc. in a small coastal village. However thats just a minor thing, compared to living in a beautiful part of Northumberland. I can get to Heighley Gate- I think its a half hour drive from here. Hope to meet you all next month.

Sorry I cannot make the meeting today, too early for me I was just managing the 10.30 start. Hopefully another time.

Hi Ladies

Hope you are all well and not snowed in.

I’d like to suggest some dates and times for our next meetup.

Please let me know how you feel about Tuesday or Wednesday 13th or 14th March from 10.30

We usually meet at Costa in Heighleygate but we were discussing alternative venues at our last meeting.

All suggestions welcome!

Hello Jane.
I can meet you all for the first time on 13th or 14th at Heighley Gate. As we have just moved to Northumberland we have folks in from time to time doing jobs for us. So, from my point of view the sooner you could fix a firm date the more chance I have of meeting up with you all.

Hi Jane

I'm afraid I can't make the 13th or 14th as new kitchen is being fitted that week ?.

Plainjaney Sat 03-Mar-18 16:45:47

Hi Janet

Oooh-lovely new kitchen!

What about Wednesday the next week-21st?

It would be a shame if you can’t come. I’d like to confirm a date for Brenda P to work around (Hi Brenda!).

Hope that week is convenient for everyone.

New friends welcome!

Hello Jane, Yes I can get to Heighley Gate on Wed 21st. Have put it on the calendar.
I live in Embleton, I would think its about a forty minute drive.
Looking forward to meeting you all.
Brenda P.

granjan15 Sun 04-Mar-18 16:39:10

Hi Jane
Yes I too can make Wednesday 21st at Heighley Gate. Thank you for changing the date.
Looking forward to seeing everyone and to meeting you Brenda P, another newcomer to Northumberland like me!

Hi Ladies

We had another lovely chat over coffee yesterday and it was great to meet Brenda P.

I hope we can all get together on Wednesday 18th April at Costa in Heighleygate - from 10.30.

Please let me know if this fits in with everyone-we could possibly change date or venue to suit.
