I've been watching to see if anyone would suggest a meet.

When we last met in December it was suggested we have another in Spring so here I am throwing it out there.

I thought mid to late April would give us time to agree a date but we'll stick to the usual place and time , Concert Hall cafe at 1.00.

I will be in Scotland until 18th April (from 4th) 🙂

Bridie that sounds good. I'm up for a catch up provided I'm not on childcare duties.

MissAdventure Wed 06-Mar-24 12:11:09

Oh, good.
I enjoy watching the Glasga grannies arrangements take shape. smile

I mentioned on the Good Morning thread a few weeks ago, that I too was thinking of organising one, but life got in the way.

Over to you Bridie.

What about find the best day for people. It was a Tuesday the last time?

TopsyIrene06 Wed 06-Mar-24 16:12:21

I'm in depending on the date.

Marydoll Wed 06-Mar-24 16:49:26

We want to avoid the school holidays, otherwise Glasgow will be too busy.

Looking forward to it !😀x

bridie54 Wed 06-Mar-24 23:14:57

Pleased to see this has taken off well 🙂

I’m going to suggest Wednesday 17/04 as one gran will be in Scotland then, I’d prefer not a Tuesday and it avoids school holidays too..

Let’s see how it goes 🤞

Marydoll Wed 06-Mar-24 23:55:02

It looks ok for me, however I think the last time, Weds weren't great for some grans, due to childcare commitments.

Grandmabatty Thu 07-Mar-24 07:03:41

I can make Wednesday 17th April so count me in

baubles Thu 07-Mar-24 07:07:49

I’d be fine with that date.

Grammaretto Thu 07-Mar-24 07:11:04

I am ok with that date so far
Thanks Bridie and Marydoll

Wednesday 17th April is fine with me, thanks bridie

Marydoll Thu 07-Mar-24 07:54:25

This is brilliant news!!!

Stilllearning Thu 07-Mar-24 10:40:08

Hadn’t noticed this until you mentioned it this morning Marydoll, yes, fine for me, 👏👏

Looking like the usual enthusiasm for. Glesga grans get together.

7 names on the list already and it was only yesterday I suggested it.

Not to say that you can’t just appear on the day. All welcome and we’ll budge up on the seats to squeeze you in.

Scapa1 Thu 07-Mar-24 11:07:00

Sorry bridie but I can’t do Wednesdays due to child care.

Litterpicker Thu 07-Mar-24 14:47:59

It’s on my phone calendar - looking forward to it but sorry to see that Scapal can’t make it on a Wednesday 😕

TopsyIrene06 Thu 07-Mar-24 15:56:18

Sorry can't do 17/18 April as away in London.

brook2704 Thu 07-Mar-24 17:37:39

Oh Scapa I’m so sorry to hear you’re not available on the Wednesday, I think I remember you saying that you look after your DGD on Wednesdays and you couldn’t come along to the last meet up either 🥲
I don’t know if another day might be able to be arranged - I know it’s difficult to find a day that suits everyone
I’m free anyday that week if it helps at all

Marydoll Thu 07-Mar-24 18:44:03

Sorry to hear that you two can't come. 😔 I'm free most days. I lead a boring life.

Baggs Thu 07-Mar-24 18:58:03

Count me in please!

Marydoll Thu 07-Mar-24 19:54:45

Oh that is good news!

Marydoll Thu 07-Mar-24 19:55:21

I wonder if Granmarie has seen this?
