Thank again loopyloo for arranging this. Wow! what a range of subjects we covered in a short space.

Lillie Fri 24-Nov-17 18:19:56

Thank you from me too.
Yes, cakes, cats and dogs, food mixers, health, exercise, sexuality, wartime rationing, safeguarding, husbands, grandchildren etc. - the breadth of topics was amazing. And I only stayed for part of the time!!

Quite amazing when you see it written down! Didn't the time just fly by ladies? Loved meeting you all.

Thank you all for coming! And we didn't talk about Brexit! How about a Christmas trip to Oxford Circus and meeting in John Lewis? Or even Liberty's
How about Weds 13th December?

littleflo Sat 25-Nov-17 08:13:58

Yes I will be up for that.

loopyloo Tue 28-Nov-17 19:13:03

Christmas Meetup, Oxford Street, London , John Lewis. From 11 am weds 13th.
Hi there, I don't think I will be able to get there until 12 due to DGD Christmas play. But others can get there at 11 that's fine of course! Might I suggest Christmas jumpers or tinsel or silly hats? .

loopyloo Fri 08-Dec-17 10:12:31

Or is Westfield M&S more convenient? Everyone welcome.

Meet up Stratford Westfield M & S cafe on top floor. 11am onwards Weds 13th Dec. Everyone welcome.

littleflo Tue 12-Dec-17 07:26:24

I am just putting a reminder out about this to anyone who has never had the courage to come to these meet-ups before. Stupidly I was very nervous as I walked into the first meeting back in October. All of the 5 ladies were just so warm and friendly, and we chatted away about all sorts.

It was lovely to meet people of my own generation. Much of my life I have been caring for grandchildren and elderly parents and has let any social life disappear. We are of a variety of ages, some retired and some still working. If you can get to London, please come along and join us.

loopyloo Tue 12-Dec-17 09:36:32

Thanks Littleflo and yes please come along and meet us tomorrow. From 11am M&S cafe top floor. Westfield Stratford.

loopyloo Tue 12-Dec-17 18:48:12

Tomorrow Westfield Stratford M&S cafe top floor, from 11am. Everyone welcome.

Pittcity Fri 29-Jun-18 11:26:18

Hi Catterygirl ,the ladies now meet at The George, Wanstead on the third Thursday of the month at 11am....just a few stops down the central line from Stratford. Next one is 19th July.

Niobe Fri 29-Jun-18 15:00:34

Hi Catterygirl,
as Pittcity said we are still going strong. It's a lovely friendly group. Next meeting on Thursday 19 th July at 11am . The George is a nice pub opposite Wanstead underground (Central line). This station has escalators so access is easy and there is a car park too. We usually have coffee and a chat then lunch. We seem to post more under the thread "Redbridge meet up"
Do come along , we are a friendly bunch!
