So sorry but I won’t manage after all. Needed to child mind unexpectedly. I’m sad to be missing yet another meet up.

Jane10 Sorry to hear you’ll not make it this time. Take care with your next knee replacement.

Jane10 Mon 28-May-18 10:24:25

Yoo Hoo! I don't think I'll be able to come after all. I'm so sorry to miss it. I'll maybe be able to make an Autumn meet up but a lot depends on how my next knee replacement goes. Have a great time everyone.

Elegran Mon 28-May-18 09:29:22

Please say I’ve got it right this time.

Elegran I’m happy to leave you on the list for the moment until you see what’s what. Don’t worry about the numbers the list can be adjusted as necessary.

oldgoat How is it I’ve missed you out of this list? So sorry.

Elizabeth1 Tue 22-May-18 15:16:38

Condolences Elegran flowers sorry to hear about your aunt.

Elegran flowers

Now I’m back in the uk, I fully intent to make it up to another Edinburgh meet up! Not this one, though, as it coincides with new house stuff .... so hopefully an Autumn one?

I’m feel sure you’ll all have a grand time.

Elegran Tue 22-May-18 09:54:20

Thanks Marelli. I didn't have a party but apparently it was also someone's birthday in a house over the wall at the foot of my garden. They held their party in the garden and were drunkenly singing "Happy birthday to you" at midnight .

Marelli Tue 22-May-18 09:33:21

Sorry to hear about your aunt, Elegran. I hope you can manage to join us, though. Happy birthday for last Friday, by the way! Xx

Elegran Tue 22-May-18 08:59:08

Thank you for the flowers. I hope to be there and catch up, but I may be catching up with my many cousins instead.

Katek Tue 22-May-18 08:08:09

So sorry to hear of your loss elegran, but hope that we will still see you next week. flowers

EllenT Mon 21-May-18 21:45:28

flowers with sympathy Elegran

GeminiJen Mon 21-May-18 20:20:56

Elegran...Sad news. Sorry to hear it flowers
I do hope you can make it though....Wouldn't be the same without you

Elegran Mon 21-May-18 15:59:15

There is a possibility that I may not be there either. My last remaining (and favourite) aunt has died at 96. The funeral has yet to be arranged but it will mean travelling down the day before and back the day after.

EllenT Mon 21-May-18 14:56:39

Would have loved to come to say au revoir, but we take possession of our temporary home down south that day. So driving down to Northumberland then for a recce, prior to the move proper on the following Monday.

oldgoat Mon 21-May-18 14:15:19

Oh no! I hadn't noticed that I'd been struck off the list katek Yes, I am planning to come - been looking forward to it for ages. See you all on the Ist.
