Hello all smile

I'm going to put the July meet up on hold at the moment.

There's going to be a September meet, if that'll be OK with you.

I've got too much on, with my work, my sister in law's health (must get to Edinburgh) grandchild care and my still poorly foot.,(although it has improved).

We have to get on a plane and fly to the sun the 3rd week in July, and with all this I'm going to put everything on hold until I get back smile

Sometimes don't you just wish you were 10 years younger and Mrs DoItAll again grin.

September will be a good time as we wind down to Autumn and will all need cheering up ready for winter!

Hi English! It does sound as though you have more than enough on your plate at the moment. I hope that your sister in law is ok and your foot recovers soon. I have just looked after my two young grandchildren for 2 days and it was exhausting. I could have done with being 30 years younger! It would be good to meet up later in the year and if I am not in the Algarve (recovering from school holiday childcare) I will be pleased to join you! Enjoy your holiday, relax, recover and hopefully we can all meet up in September.x

Looking forward now to September. English, I hope your hectic life settles a bit quite soon, you sound as if you`re going to need that break in the Algarve!

Sounds like a plan. Good luck with all you've got on and enjoy the sun. At least we are having some good weather at mo. to get you acclimatised. Hope to meet all you Lincs gnetters in Sept.

Thanks so much everyone. flowers I really appreciate your understanding X

I think we all tend to take on too much sometimes! I still think I'm in my 30's shock and of course I'm not, having hit the big 70 at the end of June.

We've all decided not to do a lot of sightseeing in the heat of Sicily. I think that's wise as son in law and daughter all work hard and need a break so lounging about will suit us just fine. There are places to go and see which we will do now and then. Having a really good rest is high on the list of must do's!!!

If any of you lovely ladies are on Facebook we do have a Local Page for you to see and visit.

I think this is the right link. Anything you would like to put up there just feel welcome to do so.

I'll be in touch before I leave. Take care everyone XXX

Are we any nearer to a meet up?

EnglishRose Thu 14-Sep-17 18:44:45

Hello CG. Not at the moment I'm afraid, but please don't let that stop any of you from arranging a Meet Up without me.

I came back to the start of a medication routine for preventing Gout shock which I've had for 10 years now and is getting worse and if not treated can lead to all sorts of nasties! Two sets of tablets and they are having side effects which are not easy to control. wink so I have to arrange my work and my going out very carefully.

The first month is the worse apparently but feeling exhausted is pretty common and I do have fatigue, but one set of tablets is only for one month, leaving me with the ones which are easier to cope with. Until I've got this sorted I thought it best not to venture too far from home. Lucky I can most often work from home too!

At the end of September I am hoping to be in a better place in which to organise and get started. But, as I said, don't wait for me ladies. Just get together and I will join yu all at a later date.

Hi EnglishRose, I don`t know if you`ve noticed, but there`s a meet up being arranged in Grantham, hopefully Oct. 31st, are you coming?

Nandalot Thu 19-Oct-17 17:37:02

Hope you are feeling better English Rose. Do you think you could make Grantham meet up?

callgirl1 Fri 20-Oct-17 17:12:25

Are you coming Nandalot?

callgirl1 Fri 20-Oct-17 18:20:53

I think I`m the only Boston member, but does anyone know if there is a bus from Boston that stops at the Springfields shopping outlet, please? I`ve only ever been by car.

callgirl1 Fri 20-Oct-17 21:30:51

Ignore my question Nandalot, I`ve just re-read the meet up thread and see that you are going!

EnglishRose Mon 30-Oct-17 17:36:50

Hi everyone.

Please do enjoy your meet up flowers

It's my husband's birthday tomorrow (31st) and family will be over here so I won't be able to make it, sadly.

Happily I am certainly getting used to the new meds and calming down a bit, so I'm really pleased to say I hope to join you on the next one.

I've also been busy with work issues and spent much of my energy on this plus of course the granddaughters smile and life just whizzes by!

Have a great time and hope it is a sunshine day for you all XXX

Sorry you can`t come English Rose
