Dorking for a Surrey meetup

yes yes many thanks, grannyknot. great meetup. I'd love to do it again. Still got a big grin on my face!

L to R we have Bellsnwhistles Yogagran, Grannyknot and Purpledaffodil. MiniMouse kindly took the photo.
I echo the others, it was a lovely meetup. Great venue, super company. Lots of thanks and to Grannyknot for her wonderful organisational skills.

Ah you lucky ducks being able to meetup so glad you had such a good time.(only joking on

We did have a lovely time. Sorry you're so far sparky.

Thank you GK for organising today's lunch time meet up, it was so lovely to see you all and I look forward to the next time.

Your knitted cardi looks beautiful Gk and the racoon buttons finish it off perfectly

We did have a nice get together. I got home, flung a small lamb shoulder roast into a "double roaster", stuck it in the oven, and thankfully put it on very low, because I promptly fell asleep for over an hour . Served much later with mashed potatoes and steamed veg, husband declared it delicious!

I wanna go back to Dorking and potter around the shops!

It was good wasn't it? Sparkygran we shall do our own mini meetup soon I hope.
Feel I should clarify that GK's cardi with raccoon buttons was for her GS. Although she would look stylish in a black sack to be fair

There is a new post on the Surrey Local for a meet up in Guildford...

Thanks Penstemmon, i will check it out.

Too far for me, I'm afraid. Hope you have a lovely time

Perhaps we could do another Dorking one before too long?

hi mini yes that's a good idea.

The meetups are a bit like buses! None and then ... there's Merton, Central London, Guildford ... at the moment I am spoilt for choice. I can't make the Guildford one either.

Oh when is the Merton one?

penstemmon here you go:

I find it hilarious amusing that for local meetups you can change your username willy-nilly (not "you" personally of course, but I never say "One" it just sounds odd to me to say that "One can do this or that ...")

Anyhoo - I've a different name for the Merton one ; I might pop up in a different guise on other local sites. Only joking!!!

That should be on local groups re name change. Not local meetups!

Did it go ahead and are any other meetup's possible. I only joined recently and I live in Horley x

Welcome to GN NannaJay.I hope you are enjoying it. I'm not sure where Horley is so I expect Reading would be too far for you to come. We have a meet-up planned on 3rd August at which you would be very welcome if you could make it.
