We had our first meet up early February which was really nice. Is anyone interested in a get together end of March?

Last time we met up nearer to Horwich. This time I’m suggesting the Harwood, Bromley Cross Area, But am open to suggestions.

If anyone is interested let me know and we can sort out a date.

I’ve had a message from Jaye who has suggested Bolton town centre.
That’s fine by me.

farview Mon 18-Feb-19 15:30:14

Interested yes but can only manage Mondays and Wednesdays..where in Bolton town centre?

anna7 Mon 18-Feb-19 15:57:20

Bolton town centres fine by me too. Mondays or Wednesdays are fine too. How about Harvey's which is on Mawdsley Street? Or any of the restaurants/cafes in the Market Place?

farview Mon 18-Feb-19 16:32:03

Yes Harvey's is nice..

Smiley4 Mon 18-Feb-19 17:14:35

How about either Friday 22nd. Monday 25th or Wednesday 27th?
At Harvey’s.
Anna - I hope you’re still up for that gin or prossecco we talked about ?

anna7 Mon 18-Feb-19 18:18:54

I'm always up for gin and/or prosecco Smileywine

Any of those dates are ok for me.

farview Mon 18-Feb-19 18:19:35

I'm fine with either the Mon or Wed.

Smiley4 Mon 18-Feb-19 20:45:49

Shall we say Monday 25th March 11.45 at Harvey’s.

anna7 Mon 18-Feb-19 21:05:37

Yes, that's good for me.

Jaye53 Mon 18-Feb-19 22:49:51

Yes 25 March ok for me.yes Harveys is good.

farview Tue 19-Feb-19 07:18:04

Me too...look forward to it?

Smiley4 Wed 20-Feb-19 22:08:23

Farview can’t make the 25th now. Is the 27th suitable? As she can make that date.

anna7 Wed 20-Feb-19 22:18:31

I can make the 27th. Would be good to meet Farview again.

Smiley4 Thu 21-Feb-19 07:26:18

Great Anna. Glad you can change it.

I can't do Monday's - child care - but 27th March would good for me. Obviously, if Monday is better for the majority I'll go on the next convenient one. Who mentioned prosecco/gin?!

mancgirl Fri 22-Feb-19 08:04:41

Don't go into Bolton very often these days so not familiar with Harvey's. Just googled Harvey's, is it now called The Courthouse?

farview Fri 22-Feb-19 09:22:04

Oh glad it's looking like we can all make the 27th ?

Smiley4 Fri 22-Feb-19 09:58:17

Yes mancgirl it’s the courthouse. Years ago it was the county court offices. Hence the name.
Very near the bus station and train station.
We have changed it to the 27th now as Farview couldn’t do the Monday.
As for the gin or prossecco. Myself and Anna found out that we like pink gin and prossecco so we may try one or two - just to be sociable of course ?

mancgirl Fri 22-Feb-19 18:15:11

Sounds like a plan to me! I know roughly where it is. Looking forward to meeting you allsmile

farview Mon 04-Mar-19 09:18:22

Looking forward to seeing everyone!! ?

Smiley4 Mon 04-Mar-19 19:04:24

Me too. I’m not sure how many are coming yet. There’s me, Anna, Farview, mancgirl, hopefully a couple of others.

Anyone who wants to come and would like to be met outside the Courthouse, just say, and one of us will meet you. It’s not always easy going into a place on your own, especially if you don’t know who you’re looking for. X

Hi Smiley, Anna, Farview and mancgirl, I'm definitely coming. I'll be arriving by train and should be ok finding you all. smilex

Smiley4 Wed 06-Mar-19 09:03:19

I’m really pleased you’re coming. I’ll message you my mobile number, just in case you need to contact me on the day. X

Bambam Wed 06-Mar-19 09:44:51

Ok! Thanks! ?x
