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.

Sorry I couldn't come Janey. I'm on grandson duty today. DGS 2 is visiting for his monthly sleepover.

Hi All

We had a lovely meetup today - thanks to everyone for coming and looking forward to catching up with everyone who couldn’t make it this time.

I suggest we meet again on Tuesday 28th August so please let me know if this would be a convenient date for everyone.

Sorry Jane, I'll be on a cruise ship then. September would be better, unless family matters get in the way again.

Plainjaney Thu 19-Jul-18 07:04:25

Hi Minimoon

Sorry you can’t make August meetup, but I’m sure you’ll enjoy the lovely cruise.

See you in September!

Hi Jane. I enjoyed our get together this week, lots to talk about and it was good to meet EllenT.

Hi all
Lovely to meet everyone yesterday and I look forward to August 28th. xx

Hi Jane
I’ve just realised that the 28th is a Tuesday and not our usual Wednesday. I don’t think I’ll be able to make it on that day but I can do the usual Wednesday or the Thursday of that week.
Sorry about that.

Hi
I can only make that date that week, so wondering how everytone feels about moving to the following week.

Maybe 4th or 5th.

EllenT Sun 05-Aug-18 10:09:23

Hi all
We’re likely to be away 30th to 4th inclusive (not sure now that a few days in SW France sunshinesunshinewould be such an attractive proposition...) but either 5th or original date of 28th are fine xx

We're living just over on the South side of the Tyne now, so not far from the A1 and Morpeth. And I'm originally a Northumbrian. So hope to start meeting you all.
Any Tues or Wed. is ok until mid Sept.
I might find the courage to drive up, if not husband says he'll drive and drop me off.
'll be following this thread smile.

EllenT Tue 14-Aug-18 16:14:47

Off-topic I know, but can anyone recommend a north-Northumberland based removals firm? We move from our rented house here in Belford to Wooler in October. Hope to see you all soon cafe

Plainjaney Tue 14-Aug-18 18:35:26

Hi All

Thanks for the messages - shall we pin down Wednesday 5 th September instead of August?
From 10 at Heighleygate Costa Morpeth.
Looking forward to meeting everyone.
Sorry no removal firm suggestions, Susan.

Jane xx

Fennel Tue 14-Aug-18 19:15:01

Hoping to come on 5th Sept.
Ellen - Bishops Move - not a local removals company, but they have a base in Newcastle and gave us a good estimate for our move from SW France to the NE. And gave good service.

Pittcity Wed 15-Aug-18 07:50:11

EllenT we are on a short break in Wooler this week. I really envy you moving here. envy

Kupari45 Thu 16-Aug-18 16:17:57

Hello Jane, Yes I can get over from Embleton on September 5th. Look forward to seeing you all.

EllenT Thu 16-Aug-18 18:17:03

5th September is fine for me too. See you then! Thanks for the recommendation
Fennel and the encouragement Pittcity

EllenT Tue 04-Sept-18 18:49:08

Last minute apologies from me. Husband has sore foot and needs lift to work (in Edinburgh)!

Plainjaney Tue 04-Sept-18 22:13:42

Hi All

Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow from 10!
(Costa, Heighleygate). ?☕️

Anyone new, there’ll be a red bag on table.

Sorry you can’t make it, Susan - hope hubby’s foot is better soon.
