Lincolnshire meet?

Table for 5 is booked, 12 noon on 31/10, in the name of Grans' Net. See y'all there.

I can stay on bus and meet in spalding callgirl

To make sure we can all sit together, it might be wise to book.
Downtoearth, I`m currently trying to find out if the Spalding bus from Boston stops off at Springfields. There is a bus stop there, but a friend tells me the bus from Boston doesn`t go there, but I`ll definitely find out in the next day or two.

Darn! That should have read pot luck....

Good-oh, CG1. I should be there about 11:30. Now I'm wondering whether to book a table or should we just takeout luck?

Sorry Teddy, a bit far for me.
Well, I`ve ordered my train tickets. My train gets into Grantham at 11.41am, and I`m going home on the 5.32pm train.

Any people near Brigg,Scawby or Scunthorpe

Brilliant Oldgoat, I`ll book my tickets after tea.

callgirl We can share a taxi from the station.

Callgirl1, as all but downtoearth have said 31st is OK for them, then I think we should regard this as a definite arrangement. So, yes, go ahead and book your ticket. Short of some disaster, like a drone falling on the bus stop, I shall be there!

Feeling better about not be able to meet up wouldnt have been able to do 31st as going to corn Exchange with a friend that evening if another meet is arranged I will arrange to use the car and drive up

Am I safe to go ahead and book train tickets?

I`ll be taking a taxi anyway, can`t walk very far.

Oldgoat, I'm sure you'll add class and tone to the proceedings, if your user name is anything to judge by! So far as I'm concerned, this is an exercise in getting to meet people (I haven't lived here for long) so the more, the merrier. The Angel & Royal looks on Open Street Map to be around 10 mins' walk from the station, a little over half a mile.

Good heavens. Thanks for the update, maryeliza54 . Who thought a handful of GNers behaving not-too-badly was worth informing the Twitterati? This might be interesting ... or scary!

I can make 31st Oct

Please, can I come too? I love a GN meet-up and I can get to Grantham easily by train. Is the Angel and Royal far from the station ?

October 31st is fine with me.
Yep Downtoearth, we`ll fix a date soon.

This thread is now on Twitter so who knows who else might turn up?

How about we settle for 31 October? Unless, of course, Teetime can't make that day. Say, 12:00 in Bertie's Bistro at the Angel & Royal?
I'm looking forward to meeting you all.

callgirl look forward to that , we can make a date once the dates for the Lincolnshire meet up have been arranged

The only time I definitely CAN`T make it is November 16/17/18th, s my daughter is taking me to London.
Downtoearth, I`d love to meet up with you at Springfields, anytime apart from the above dates.

At the moment I could make either of those. Tuesday is usually good for me.

I'd overlooked half term ...
But let's be bold and make a decision: how about Tues 31 October at the Angel & Royal? Or the following Tuesday? Lunchtime?
Of course, if we can't all make one of those dates, then we can pick another!

Grantham is good for me too..probably catching same bus as Scribbles! Weds. are no good for me and next week , of course, is half-term so Granny duties beckon. Hope we can arrange something.
