Is there anyone out there, in the Southend area, who would like to meet up at the beginning of April ?

Sar53 Mon 10-Jun-19 20:34:50

Is there anyone else who would like to meet up towards the end of the month ?

GrannyGravy13 Fri 07-Jun-19 15:19:53

I am happy to go anywhere and I can do either of those days

Sar53 Fri 07-Jun-19 15:08:35

I can make the 25th or 27th June. I have a lot going on the next few weeks. I'm easy on where we meet but I think Old Leigh would be too difficult to get to for anyone who doesn't drive.
Any ideas ????

GrannyGravy13 Thu 06-Jun-19 17:03:19

Old Leigh is lovely this time of year or Leigh Broadway?

Ok ladies sorry for the lateness of my reply.

I can do any Tuesday or Thursday until Friday 11th July. Might be able to do a Wednesday if that's easier for others.

I drive so not fussy where we meet although it might be nice to meet where there is "outside space" as it's summer.

Will PM Miss Adventure.

Looking forward to seeing friends again, and meeting new ones xx

I am in East London so it is easy for me to get to your area by train.

Sar53 Wed 29-May-19 17:12:06

Hello Flossieturner nice to hear from you. Where are you living now ? There are two or three other ladies who don't drive so I am sure we can accommodate everyone.

I would like to meet up with you all but I no longer drive so it would be great to meet near a Rail Station. I was born in Southend. My mum was a Clippie during the war and my dad worked at the Kursaal after he left the Army.

Sar53, I am away (actually waiting for flight home) will pm you with dates in June I can do x

Hi Sar53 Thanks for your response. I too, drive so any local venue is not a problem. I can fall in with any suggestions other people may want to make. Have you been on the site for long? I only found it yesterday but it seems very friendly with lots of helpful comments made to others.

Sar53 Wed 29-May-19 11:23:22

Hi Bellarosie, nice to meet you. There are a few of us in the Southend area and we have met up a few times. I personally live in Shoebury but I drive so venues not too much of a problem.
I suggest a meet up sometime in June. Any ideas anyone ?

bellarosie Wed 29-May-19 09:27:17

Hi to everyone in the Southend area. I am a new member ( just yesterday). I will keep a watch on this forum, just in case you have any meetings coming up. I am in Rayleigh. I am sure there is nothing quite like a "girly chat" when one is feeling a little low. Hope you are all in good spirits at the moment.
