Anyone interested in a meet up in Birmingham? Seems quite a while since the last one, but now the weather has brightened may be a good idea to see who is free.

Oh no! Will be out of the country on 23 rd. Hope to make it in June!

Blinko Thu 17-May-18 11:53:15

Sorry to hear you can't join us this time, T&C. There's bound to be another time.

Always seems to happen, miss things because away scooting around the country! Regards to you and Nannyjan53. See you at next one, I hope...

NannyJan53 Mon 21-May-18 08:36:30

Sorry to miss you T & C, and I will probably miss the June one as we are away from 18th!

Hi all. Met a couple of you in Bridgnorth last year, and would like to come to Birmingham but can't manage it this month. If any of you fancy a trip to sunny Shrewsbury a few Shropshire grans are meeting on June 6th. Hope to meet up with you next time.

Looking forward to see you all on Wed. Can we have a round-up of who to look out for please?

Blinko Mon 21-May-18 19:27:17

Hi PensionPat, on 23rd I think it's you, me and NanJan. Home is Where is in Church Street, just off Colmore Row, opposite Hotel du Vin.

It would be great to see you next time, Lazigirl.

Looking good!

Ive just had a phone call offering a hospital appointment which I've been waiting for! I've had to accept it because it's urgent. I'm so sorry to let you down. I hope you have a nice chat. Hope to make the next one.

Blinko Tue 22-May-18 18:14:46

Sorry you can't make it this time, PP. Hope to see you next time.

Hi NJ looks like me and you again, after all that. Merry Hill?

NannyJan53 Wed 23-May-18 07:31:34

Yes, Merry Hill is ok for me. 11.00am outside Debenhams on ground floor?

NannyJan53 Wed 23-May-18 07:32:56

Oooops pressed button too quickly smile

Sorry to miss you PP hopefully another time soon.

Blinko Wed 23-May-18 08:22:42

See you later then smile

Blinko Wed 23-May-18 08:36:27

Now that we've 23rd sorted, we can start thinking about a meeting for those who couldn't make it. Glitterknitbaby's dates are: 20th 22nd 25th 26th 27th 29th June. Any takers?

Tea and cake Wed 23-May-18 10:42:15

Mondays and now Fridays are completely out for me. Wednesday, Thursday are usually Ok and Tuesdays at a pinch...so 20 and 22 June would suit me best. Let me know what's decided. Enjoy your meeting ?

Tea and cake Wed 23-May-18 10:43:08

Whoops, of course that's 29 not 22!!

Tea and cake Wed 23-May-18 10:46:59

Spot the deliberate mistake! 27 not 29. Perhaps I should have stayed in bed!!

Blinko Wed 23-May-18 14:44:55

I'm pretty much the same as you, T&C. So 20th or 27th being Wednesdays would suit me too. Let's see how others are fixed.

Glitterknitbaby Sat 02-Jun-18 22:59:33

Sad to say I’m going to have to pull out on this one as OH has suddenly got a string of hospital appointments. But will keep watching and hope to meet up with you all at sometime in the near future.

Luckylegs9 Thu 28-Jun-18 07:12:00

Anyone interested in meeting at John Lewis cafe in Birmingham, first Thursday in August at 11.am

Tea and cake Thu 28-Jun-18 07:16:28

August 2nd. Looks good to me so far!

Blinko Thu 28-Jun-18 07:57:34

Yep, I could make 2nd August 11am.

NannyJan53 Tue 10-Jul-18 08:59:54

Not long back from holiday, so just catching up.

Shame that I cannot make 2nd August as we are going away for a long weekend that day!

Hope to make the next one.

pensionpat Tue 10-Jul-18 09:04:47

In August I shall be in the throes of the Food Bank project feeding families who will be missing free school meals. Enjoy.

Nonnie Thu 19-Jul-18 17:47:37

Moving house that day!
