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.

It's my birthday on the 11th so the coffee and biscuits are on me, Jane!

Just wondering if it's worth putting a message about the Northumberland meet up group on the chat forum now and then, Jane? Some members who might like to come might not follow this thread. What do you think? Or maybe management would remind everyone to take a look at the meet ups forum? I've got this thread set to let me know when there's a new message. Otherwise I wouldn't think to look here. Just a thought....

If that happens and hundreds turn up on the 12th Feb, I might have to take out a bank loan for all the coffee and biscuits!

Hello all. I know the meet up has been & gone but just wondered if anyone knows if there's a bus that goes from Morpeth to Heighleygate? I live in Newbiggin & can get to Morpeth (or Ashington) easily. Never heard of Heighleygate tho - but have been a northerner less than 3 years. Thanks!

granjan15 Tue 27-Aug-19 15:20:40

Hi Vissos.
When we last met up in July, we decided to meet up in Morpeth itself next time. We haven’t decided on a date yet. Which days are good for you?

Plainjaney Wed 28-Aug-19 10:15:53

Hi All, especially Vissos or anyone else new who’d like to join us. smile

Hope everyone has had a great summer!

I’d like to arrange a meet-up for 18th September- anytime from 10am in Morpeth.

I’m wondering about Costa in Next or Bridge Street or M & S. Any other suggestions?
