I really enjoyed our meet ups before Covid. At present I’m not getting out enough. Sadly John Lewis is no longer in Brum, gone, scones and all.
Please post if you are interested in a coffee or lunch meet up. I would love to meet old friends and make new ones. Nonnie, Tegan, Blinko, Hellobaby, I hope we’ll meet again - soon.

So pleased there was another successful meetup at The Exchange. At present I seem to get one thing wrong after another with (luckily I guess) plenty of clinic appointments. However I hope to make it to your next coffee and cake!

The only day I am free now is Wednesday 11th December. It maybe too short notice for most of you now before Christmas. If so perhaps January or February?

I remember you at a John Lewis meet up GrannyBeek

Allsorts The Exchange is right opposite the Library and next to a Metro stop.

I wonder if there is a way to keep the meet up threads on the active thread for a few days. I've just spotted this on meetups, sorry Nanny Jan for not responding. I guess we should go for an end of January meet up now.

Sorry I’ve only just caught up with this. Yes please, early in the New Year would be better for me.

I am away from 12th to 18th January, but any Tuesday or Wednesday (except for Wed 8th) would be good for me.

Hellobaby1 Sun 01-Dec-24 11:40:35

NannyJan53 Mon 02-Dec-24 13:55:58

V3ra I can do any of those dates

Gymstagran Tue 03-Dec-24 12:29:18

Hi all I can't do the 28th but I'm OK with the others. However Blinko preferred earlier in the month. Can you do any of the later dates*Blinko*?

Blinko Wed 04-Dec-24 18:35:35

Hello everyone, as we speak I could make any of the proposed dates in January.

Elrel Sun 08-Dec-24 16:24:41

Looking forward to catching up in January.Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas.

Blinko Mon 09-Dec-24 09:59:25

Just made an appointment to talk about a new boiler - on 22nd!
Will try to rearrange it.

Gymstagran Mon 20-Jan-25 16:19:49

Hi all, I hope we can still all make Wednesday 22nd. I'm looking forward to it. I did put a post on the good Morning thread at the weekend in the hope that more local grans would come. There was no response though. Elrel hope you managed to change your appointment. * Monk* is now committed to helping at playgroup.

Blinko Mon 20-Jan-25 16:23:41

Looking forward to meeting up again on 22nd. The Exchange again?

NannyJan53 Mon 20-Jan-25 16:27:10

I will be there. Look forward to seeing you all.
