Had a lovely first meet up this afternoon with Daisymay1, we are planning another, probably next month, so do join in if you are nearby and fancy joining us for a coffee or lunch.

Halifax would be fine for me. smile As for days, I can't do Mondays at all, and would have to leave before 3 for school pick ups on Tuesdays. I could usually arrange to be free on other days.

Hi MollyMandy
I’m Hd9 and I’m happy to do the piece hall . Any other HD grans around ? I know some of the others who post on here may live further afield ?

MollyMandy Thu 05-Sept-19 19:16:43

Hello, I’m new to this but have been shyly lurking......I’m in HD5 and see a few other HD Grans. I don’t drive so can’t get to every meet up, but it would be good to meet up if possible.
I can’t do some Mondays or Wednesdays.
I wondered if The piece hall or The square chapel theatre might be a venue?

Daisymay1 Thu 05-Sept-19 09:37:31

I can normally do most days ?

Party4 Wed 04-Sept-19 23:05:26

Wednesdays have to be back for school pickup.

Graso Wed 04-Sept-19 22:23:06

Just wondered if it would be useful, before attempting to arrange the next meet-up and in the hope of as many people as possible being able to attend, if anyone interested would post any days that they’re regularly unavailable?

I know there’ll be other random dates too but hopefully we could avoid excluding anyone permanently because of their regular commitments.

So..........Thursdays are generally a no-no for me ?

Graso Wed 04-Sept-19 21:59:42

Thanks for coming Daisymay1 really enjoyed our meeting, hopefully the first of many ?

Daisymay1 Wed 04-Sept-19 17:42:14

Thanks Joelsnan ?

UPDATE ON MEET UP - ALL WELCOME!

Sorry that this is such short notice, time and venue for the meeting on Wednesday 4th September is now Cafe Creme, High Street, Penistone at 11am.

At the moment there are just two of us, so it would be great if anyone else is able to make it.

Graso Thu 29-Aug-19 10:03:09

Just wondering whether the proposed September 4th meet-up is going ahead?

For some reason I no longer receive emails alerts re thread updates and only just noticed the posts that followed my last one. Still interested though if anyone else is!

Jessity Sun 18-Aug-19 17:03:01

Daisymay1 I’d love to be there but it’s my first back-to-yoga class after the summer break. I’ll hope to be able to join you next time.

Maryj2581 Sun 18-Aug-19 16:29:53

Hi - I'd love to join the next meet up and live on the outskirts of Huddersfield so Cannon Hall / Yorkshire Sculpture Park are both good for me.

Daisymay1 Sun 18-Aug-19 13:32:23

Hi everyone
We haven’t had a meet up since April , I’ve been unwell and then busy with grandchildren .
It would be great to have another get together . How about 4th September at cannon hall garden centre at 10.30 .
Just a suggestion I’m open to any others .
Would be good to get together . ?
