Fine by me (23 August). My preference would be Cote

Sorry about the slow reply. I have just spent two days on an NHS paid break. The cause was acute and very painful, but I am home now and a little uncomfortable - and catching up with GN and email.

Aldom Wed 29-Jun-22 06:35:58

Morning everyone.
Thank you Greenfinch and Cornflower, we're just waiting to hear from MOnica.
Is there anyone else in the Oxfordshire area who would be interested in meeting in August? smile

Cornflower Tue 28-Jun-22 19:13:14

Hi All,
Yes, the 23rd August would suit me, too. My preferred restaurants are LPQ, Pizza Express and Cote.

Greenfinch Tue 28-Jun-22 17:22:30

Hi Aldom,23rd is fine for me.
I vote for Cote but don’t really mind as long as I can find it from the bus stop!

Aldom Tue 28-Jun-22 12:31:19

Thank you Juno. smile

Juno56 Tue 28-Jun-22 12:15:07

The date is fine and on my calendar. I am fine with any of the venues but I have not been to Le P Q and it does sound good; so I think that's my first choice with Cote as my second.

Aldom Tue 28-Jun-22 08:01:24

Morning Oxfordshire Gransneters hoping you are all able to come on Tuesday, 23rd August. Please let me know which venue you prefer. smile

suzikyoo Mon 27-Jun-22 18:05:45

Le P Q even!!

suzikyoo Mon 27-Jun-22 18:04:19

Date fine by me. Le Q P sounds yummy (bakery .. pastries!) and Cote a new experience but happy to go with anything.

Aldom Mon 27-Jun-22 16:39:08

MOnica please let me have your mobile number by PM. Best wishes.

Ladyleftfieldlover Mon 27-Jun-22 16:26:33

Well done! I’d go for Cote for my first choice, followed by Le Pain Q.

Aldom Mon 27-Jun-22 16:09:47

Hello again Oxfordshire Gransneters
I've looked at the days /dates most suited to you all and it looks like Tuesday 23rd August is best for everyone. Suggested venues are Prezzo, Pizza Express, Cote and Le Pain Quotidien (in the Westgate at the bottom). Very pleasant, spacious, relaxing atmosphere. Variety of food and drinks. Please may I suggest you look up the venues on line if you're not familiar with some of them and post your preference. We will go to the venue with the most votes. As for previous meet ups, once we have decided, I will book the table. Previously we have met at twelve. smile

Aldom Sun 26-Jun-22 15:59:23

If anyone else is interested in joining us for the August meet up, please add your name. smile

Aldom Sun 26-Jun-22 15:43:44

Thank you Juno. I'll be collating days and dates early in the coming week. Hopefully we can find a date to suit everyone.
