Once again I have forgotten when we are next meeting. Does anyone have the December Date??

loopyloo Tue 10-Dec-19 08:24:54

Yes it's the 19th, the Thursday after the election. I am looking for a Christmas jumper to wear!

Will be thinking of you all on Friday, Have a good time and my best wishes to you all for a very enjoyable festive season and - hopefully, a peaceful and healthy 2020,
I attended my first Gransnet Meet up for North Somerset last week - first one for this new group - six of us - not bad to start - and it was very successful.
I am very happy in my flat in Weston S Mare - really enjoying living on one level and also having everything so very close to me. Was really worth all the heartache and stress of the selling/buying process.
Best wishes to you all

PS: Just to say that if any of you - at anytime, are coming to the West Country - please do let me know and perhaps we can arrange to meet. Do have a spare bedroom in the flat, If any of you do PM me and I will give you my address and contact details. My email address and mobile phone no have not changed and you should have that.

Sorry won't be able to make the next few meetings of the Wanstead meet ups . My daughter in law's working schedule has changed and I will be babysitting but if time allows we will pop in to say hello.

Hi everyone. We had suggested a date in April but we are postponing that for the moment.
So I hope you can all keep fairly cheerful and sane.
Perhaps we can have virtual Meet ups.
Best wishes to you all.

Niobe Tue 24-Mar-20 18:32:03

I see Tim Martin is refusing to pay his staff until the government can get money to them. He as told them to “get jobs in Tesco”. I for one do not want to go back to the George or any other of his places.
When all this is over can we find somewhere else in Wanstead for our meet-ups?

loopyloo Tue 24-Mar-20 20:36:08

Yes, what a different landscape it will be. Hope you are ok. And everyone else in our group.
See you all soon.

littleflo Wed 25-Mar-20 07:54:41

Hi everyone,I am sorry I have not been to many meetings lately. I am feeling much stronger now. Hope you and all other GNetters are keeping well.

loopyloo Sun 03-May-20 13:50:31

Hi everyone. Greetings to you all. Hope everyone is OK. I spoke to Niobe the other day and we said how good it will be to meet up again when things allow.
I will take a look at the High Street and see what is open!
In the mean time, I wish Franbern all the best, I picture her sitting on her balcony in the sun and zooming along the promenade.
Yes Littleflo glad to hear you are feeling better, we were wondering if you were OK.
Best wishes to everyone.
