As mentioned on previous thread (Ladies who like to lunch in London) I'm just starting this one.
If anyone fancies suggesting a date for a new Meet, or a venue (though Debenhams is pretty central) it would be lovely to see you all.

Four of us had a very pleasant meet up today and for once I was not cold. The aircon was on but turned down to an acceptable level.

We chatted for three hours and will be meeting again on Friday the 29th November at 11am at Debenhams 2nd floor cafe.

Welcome to Gransnet HistoryLady. And many congratulations on becoming a Gran
Keep an eye on this thread and you will be able to see when meetings are arranged. Hopefully one will coincide with a visit to see your new granddaughter. Just post on here when you are able to come and you will be given a warm welcome!

I became a granny 6 weeks ago and this is my first visit to Gransnet. I don’t live in London but my granddaughter does, so I am hoping to visit often. I’d love to join a meet in the future.

meet it roughly every 4-6 weeks at the same place.

Hi
I would very much like to come along but can't manage this Friday as I take care of my elderly parents, will there be another meet up coming soon.

Charleygirl5 Mon 21-Oct-19 09:46:35

I will put a small black bag on the table. I will sit at one of the oval tables for 4 which are recognisable from the entrance. Wear something warm because the air conditioning recently has been fierce. If more than 4 turn up we can when we think everybody has arrived.

I hope to have a better idea nearer the day how many are coming.

I hope to be there. Will you have anything to recognise you by?

Hi everyone, sorry I won't be able to make it. My husband has recently adjusted his work days (cut back) and he is now at home on Fridays and wanting to do stuff with me! I'm sure it will be a passing phase, but for now I am happy to fall in with whatever he has planned for us - last week was Kew Gardens smile.

Enjoy your meetup.

I thought that I was safe for Friday as the other Gran has our grandson on Fridays but have just been asked if I can take him this coming Friday. Sorry ladies but I'm sure you will all have a great time!

Charleygirl5 Sun 20-Oct-19 11:45:34

I will definitely be there. I only hope the Extinction Group will not!!!

notgoneyet Sun 20-Oct-19 11:35:42

I hope to be coming this time, having missed the last couple. Be nice to see you again Charleygirl; shame Bellanonna can't make it.

Catterygirl Fri 18-Oct-19 11:49:34

Thank you Bellanonna. I may well go.

Bellanonna Fri 18-Oct-19 09:38:13

It’s next Friday, 25th Catterygirl. I won’t be going, but the others will meet in the Debenhams cafe on the 2nd floor at 11.
Hope you can join them, and have a lovely morning.

Catterygirl Sun 13-Oct-19 10:55:10

Good morning everyone,

Is another meeting coming up soon?

Charleygirl5 Mon 16-Sept-19 10:49:53

As far as I know, Bellanonna will also be there.

Niobe Sun 15-Sept-19 20:02:06

I am planning to be there.

Grannyknot Sun 15-Sept-19 19:31:14

Hi everyone, I'm sorry I can't make it, I will be at the funeral of someone in my street ... sad

Charleygirl5 Sun 15-Sept-19 18:20:32

Catterygirl has had a better offer so probably will not be there,

Charleygirl5 Sun 15-Sept-19 14:45:01

We agreed to meet at Debenhams at 11 am on Friday the 20th of September.

I will be there.

Charleygirl5 Fri 09-Aug-19 18:38:17

catterygirl has sent her apologies. It was a very pleasant few hours today, as usual.

loopyloo Fri 09-Aug-19 18:31:53

Great to see everyone today. Great conversation as usual. Thanks so much for your company.

Grannyknot Fri 09-Aug-19 16:55:46

Great to see everyone today - and sorry I couldn't stay for lunch! See you again next time.

Grannyknot Thu 08-Aug-19 20:17:48

And me! smile

Charleygirl5 Thu 08-Aug-19 20:17:18

Moi aussi

Niobe Thu 08-Aug-19 20:02:14

I will be there too.
