I’m thinking of a nice trip to St Andrews sometime the end of June or the first 2 weeks in July. I’ve missed several catch ups due to other commitments and would love to see you all again.

I know this meet has passed me by but am new here, first post, and live just north of Dundee. Is there anyone near me? Scottish areas a bit short on support it seems. {sad face} and I am struggling with son and DIL and my 2 wee GCs in NZ. Lots more to that tale....

Welcome \Bridie, lovely to hear from a fellow Scot
There are quite a number of us on here, as you join in the other threads you will soon discover who we are.We often have to travel for our meets, but it all adds to the fun. We are a friendly lot and always happy to meet a new Scottish Granny

welcome from me too bridie. I've been on a few meet ups now and they are always fun.
We went to Dundee earlier this year and to St, Andrews another time..
I believe there was a meet in Edinburgh today but I couldn't go. The next one could be a Christmas meal. I think there are quite a few GNers in Fife.
I also have family in NZ.

Welcome bridie. I assume you're in Forfar (or am I reading too much into your name?)

Hello Bridie, and welcome ?. It would be good if you could come along to our next meet up, which will likely be nearer Christmas. I'm in Fife but pop down to Edinburgh to meet with the other grans quite often. There are usually at least half a dozen of us meet for a lunch, sometimes managing to fit in an exhibition or something, too. Keep an eye on the 'meetup' threads? St Andrews is also a favourite.

A warm welcome from me too, * Bridie*!
I have thoroughly enjoyed the Edinburgh meet ups.

Thanks for all the welcomes I've received. Well spotted mcem, I was indeed born in Forfar, hence Bridie, and now live near there too. Will certainly watch the meet up threads. Boy can you end up spending soooo much time on here!
