Glesga Grannies Spring meet

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.

Good morning all.

It would be lovely if we had some new members of our group.
Anyone thinking of coming, but not sure, we are very welcoming.
It is always an enjoyable afternoon.

I’m looking forward to our get together too, I’m not from Glasgow but I’ve always been made to feel very welcome 😀

Very regretfully, I have to bow out from the meet-up 😢
We have several friends with serious illness at the moment and we have now arranged to visit one on Tuesday next week so we will be heading for The Wirral on Monday. We will then travel back to West Sussex where I will be relieved to be able to keep an eye on my friend and neighbour who has terminal lung cancer. I was anxious about our original plan to spend the whole month in Scotland as my neighbour has no family or close friends nearby - the downside of living into your 80s+.

I am very sad to miss meeting up with the lovely Glesca Grans and hope there will be another opportunity, maybe later this year.

You will be missed Litterpicker

Marydoll Wed 10-Apr-24 17:15:05

I was looking forward to seeing you, Litterpicker.
Such a sad time for you.😪

Grammaretto Wed 10-Apr-24 19:04:15

I am sorry you won't be there litterpicker but understand the reason.
Next time!

brook2704 Wed 10-Apr-24 19:08:49

Sorry we won’t get the chance to meet up litterpicker but hopefully next time 💐

bridie54 Mon 15-Apr-24 09:17:09

Oh litterpicker we all understand what's happening to you but there will definitely be another Glesga Grans meet this year and hopefully you'll be able to make it then.
Safe travels.

Just checked in and very disappointed to see you won’t be at the meet up today litterpicker, I enjoyed chatting to you when we met before.
Lovely that you can be there for your neighbour though

Marydoll Wed 17-Apr-24 07:42:06

See you all later!

DanniRae Wed 17-Apr-24 07:45:12

I'm down south in London but wanted to wish you all a GREAT TIME!! gringrin

Kalu Wed 17-Apr-24 08:01:18

I’m afraid I won’t be able to make it today. DH had a troubled night and although he is settled now, I’ve barely slept and wouldn’t be comfortable leaving him.

I’m so disappointed not to be catching up with all of you but unfortunately it’s difficult to plan ahead as the last two years have taught me how quickly our situation can change in a matter of hours.

Knowing all of you, it’s sure to be a day of lots of blethering and laughter. Enjoy it dear friends.

Much love. x

Grandmabatty Wed 17-Apr-24 08:03:48

Kalu 💐 We will be thinking of you.
