Marydoll Wed 18-Jul-18 21:37:23

Sounds good, as usual depends on DIL's rota. Fingers crossed☺️

Elizabeth1 Thu 16-Aug-18 09:15:54

Right then I’m back. Unless there are other favourable suggestions
Who’s up for lunch roastchicken on Friday 28th September at the Old Waverley?

Jane10 Thu 16-Aug-18 09:54:55

My knee replacement has gone much better than my last one so - me!!

Elizabeth1 Thu 16-Aug-18 10:27:18

Jane10 so pleased to hear your good news. Does it mean you can join the pole vaulters now? wink

MiniMoon Thu 16-Aug-18 11:28:23

Is this the 28th September? I'd like to join you, if I'm not employed elsewhere. The train was easy last time, when I went with others to the Zoo. I'll have to let you know for sure nearer the time though. ?

Jane10 Thu 16-Aug-18 12:05:03

I'll not be pole vaulting or any other vaulting Elizabeth1!! Stairs are bad enough!

Jangran99 Thu 16-Aug-18 12:29:33

Please count me in for the 28th. Looking forward to seeing everyone ??

Marelli Thu 16-Aug-18 16:37:39

I can do the 28th Sept, too. Where is the Old Waverley?

Jane10 Thu 16-Aug-18 16:51:20

Straight across Princes St when you come out of the station or round the corner from the bus station. It's very easy to get to.

Hopefully me too....Another one who'll be able to confirm the week before

Baggs Fri 17-Aug-18 15:43:48

E1, re sales, I don't know! grin Maybe I should wear That Jacket though.

Jane10 Fri 17-Aug-18 16:25:46

I don't know about sales but at least that *** festival should be over and we might actually be able to walk down the street!! Fed up with tourists? Moi? You bet!! (Sore point alert!)

Jane10 Fri 17-Aug-18 16:26:35

4 *s missing from previous post. angry

Marydoll Fri 17-Aug-18 16:45:28

Elizabeth, there were no sales on in Edinburgh yesterday.☹️ . I was devastated.
M&S had a rail of stuff nobody obviously wants to buy and Phase Eight had nothing.?

Elegran Fri 17-Aug-18 16:55:23

Don't mention M&S sale to me. I bought a top a couple of months ago for £25, didn't like it but left it so long to take it back that I lost the receipt. Slogged out to M&S at the Gyle yesterday to return it. They said that without the receipt I could have £2.45 for it, as it was now in their sale at that price.

Jane10 Fri 17-Aug-18 16:58:13

Why don't we all wear our worst M&S buy to the lunch? Did anyone buy the Germoline dress?

Elizabeth1 Fri 17-Aug-18 19:18:28

Baggs you naughty thing. Are you saying you haven’t worn that sale bought jacket the one where you saved a massive amount of money and still paid a massive amount of money tch tch wink
