Edinburgh mid-December meet 2017

I've solved the worritsome how to gracefully board the bus wearing a long, figure-hugging skirt. I shall stuff it in a Tesco carrier bag (my son travels the world with his) and do a quick change in the lav. The hotel room where MacSporran and I will be cavorting sleeping at night, won't be available until 3pm. I shall be high jinxing cometh the hour.

oldgoat Love the badge. A work of art.

This is going to be brilliant! Looking forward to seeing you again, gillybob! ☺️

But my burka has shrunk oldgoat I can't squeeze into it any more. I'm investigating horse blankets and dust sheets though.

Thank you Elegran really looking forward to seeing you all.

But you will be anonymous and mysterious in your burka anyway jane

I'm not doing a name badge. I'd rather remain anonymous and mysterious. (Also I always feel compelled to adopt a false name when forced to wear one!)

Oldantelope doesn't sound as good, somehow.

That was indeed very crafty.

Thank you marydoll Strangely enough they didn't have any goat stickers at the craft shop so I had to cut down the horns on an antelope instead.

Ooh that looks good, Old Goat. That's it, I'm making one too.
Gillybob, the more the merrier! I'm too am hoping for a wee wander round the Chri*** market.
I'm getting quite excited. I have asked DIL for a day off, so that I can come. Fingers crossed.

Here it is.

Great minds think alike soop I'm off to three GN meet-ups in the next few weeks so to help everybody like myself that can't remember names I've made myself a badge .

Yes, Gillybob of course there is room for another. We'll love to see you. I'll add your name to the list.

Hi Elegran ( and everyone) been looking at this thread longingly for a while and wondering if there's room for one more (not so little) person ? It's okay if not . DH is keen to visit the "C" market. X

Charleyg I'm wondering how I shall climb the steps into the bus. My party skirt will need to hitched up before I attempt the task. What with all the passengers watching...I shall not be doing anything too risky. We know most of the drivers. They are used to waiting and doing the crossword whilst I sort out my left leg from my right without tripping over my stick.

All the outfits sound most appropriate. Antlers, tinsel, light up flashing earrings, tiara, pearls, burkas, and don't forget name badges. I'm not too good with remembering names when I've had a drinkie poo Elegran Shall we make our own? Safest methinks.

soop please do not forget that you will need your passport because of the sheer distance you will be travelling. Sorry, I almost forgot Baggs as well.

I'll be the one in black. My burka doesn't fit anymore. Must have shrunk in the wash. Och.

Do you think my Xmas cardi and holly wreath light up earrings will be ok?

Well said, Elegran

As long as you keep your hand on your tiara, it won't go any further than strange looks.

I was going to wear my ball gown, but I'm wondering if I might get strange looks on the train.

Well now, I'm all of a titter. Gransnet could well become a popular website. There an awful lot of turmoil going on in this world of ours. It's good to have a reason to

Def! With those pearls and jazzy tights you'll be perfectly attired. My skirt has a flouncy hemline. I shall have to be careful not to trip ^a over t*. Hey ho...
