Hi anyone in the Lincoln/Grantham area fancy a meet up?

Keeper1 Wed 11-Sept-24 19:27:54

I guess that's a no then

Scribbles Wed 11-Sept-24 23:12:07

Only just seen this. Yes, I might well be interested.

Keeper1 Thu 12-Sept-24 07:42:26

Hi Scribbles it has been a while hasn’t it?
We met in Grantham last time I wonder if we might get a couple more?

Cabbie21 Thu 12-Sept-24 08:02:20

I am not too far from Grantham, though I don’t live in Lincolnshire.

Kate54 Thu 12-Sept-24 08:16:38

I’m in South Lincolnshire but would be interested. It’s such a big county, I learned soon after moving here that a long round trip was essential in order to make friends!

Keeper1 Thu 12-Sept-24 08:56:59

Well we are gathering numbers perhaps Grantham would be a better place to meet up?

Scribbles Thu 12-Sept-24 22:19:06

I can get to Grantham on a bus so it wouldn't be a problem for me.

Keeper1 Thu 12-Sept-24 23:31:17

Cabbie21 and Kate54 are you able to get to Grantham?

Cabbie21 Fri 13-Sept-24 10:56:22

Yes, I can get by train or car.

Keeper1 Fri 13-Sept-24 11:26:08

Ok looks like a plan is forming here so we have a where what about a when?

Scribbles Fri 13-Sept-24 12:16:25

When? I'm pretty tied up until the week beginning 7 October but am generally available on Thursdays or Fridays after that. Other days are more difficult.

The Angel & Royal at Grantham is very central, close to bus stops and has a (paid) car park. Lunch and bar snacks menu looks ok, too.

But if someone knows something better, I'm easy.🙂

Keeper1 Fri 13-Sept-24 12:36:48

The Angel and Royal is very nice so good with me. They am completely booked first week of October so after that fairly open I do have FIL coming to live with us but I have been firm about my having free time so happy to fit round others

Keeper1 Sat 21-Sept-24 10:25:41

Hi

Are we going to arrange a date?

Scribbles Sat 21-Sept-24 21:47:07

Currently, I could make 4th, 10th, 11th, 17th or 18th October. Do any of those dates suit others?

Keeper1 Sat 21-Sept-24 21:51:37

17th and 18th work for me right now what about Cabbie21 and Kate54?

Cabbie21 Sat 21-Sept-24 22:22:39

I could perhaps manage 17 th.

Kate54 Sun 22-Sept-24 08:37:04

Yes I can easily get to Grantham but not until end Oct/Nov ….. Will submit dates shortly

Cabbie21 Sun 22-Sept-24 08:37:44

I will be having my latest Covid jab on 16th. The last one wiped me out for 24 hours!

Kate54 Sun 22-Sept-24 08:59:32

Apologies, looks as if mid- October is out. November suggestions: 6th, 7th, 12th, 13th,15th, 22nd, 24-28th

Keeper1 Mon 23-Sept-24 13:33:49

So for November can do 12th,15th, 22nd, 24th, 25th

Cabbie21 Mon 23-Sept-24 17:45:42

At the moment I can do most dates apart from 15th November , but I am waiting for dates of follow up appointments.

Keeper1 Mon 23-Sept-24 19:57:40

Shall we say 22nd November?

Scribbles Mon 23-Sept-24 23:31:41

Provisionally, 22 November looks okay so please count me in unless something crops up - in which case, I'll let you know.
