York meet up 22 November

Too short notice for me unfortunately. I'm sure you'll have a great time though.

Bump

I'm really looking forward to the lovely Polish food and cakes at Barbakan - and it's Christmas Market time in York, too. Hope some of the North Yorkshire and Teesside Grans will be able to join us.

Old Goat, I'm glad to see you posting! I hadn't seen you about.

Sounds a great meet up!

Hello marydoll
Hope you'll soon feel well enough for another meet-up - followed by a quick visit to Primark, of course.

Hoping that some more Yorkshire Grans will join us on the 22nd. Go on! You know you want to!.

You forgot TKMAX, Old Goat! !

Silly me marydoll - it's my favourite shop!

Hallo ladies, it's that mention of polish food en cakes! Yes it's on the calendar, see you there..

Glad that you can join us gardenoma. That makes four so far:-
Alygran
Artyfarty
Gardenoma
Oldgoat.

And Greyduster may be coming too.

Hi ladies, I would love to join you on the 22nd November if that is OK

The more the merrier Kirbylass.
See you on the 22nd at Barbakan.

Definitely the more the merrier! Looking forward to meeting old friends and new.

I'll be booking the table at Barbakan on Monday.
It would be great to have some more Grans meet us for delicious Turkish lunch and maybe a look around the Christmas Market.

Actually, it's Polish food at Barbakan ( another senior moment!).

? oldgoat Turkish, Polish it was delicious! I’m going to leave room for a dessert this time. ???

I've never managed a Barbakan pudding either artyfarty but those cakes are calling me. Must make room this time.

Just one week to go until the York meetup at Barbakan Polish Restaurant, Walmgate, at 12.30 on the 22nd Nov.

I've booked a table for 6, so we've got room for one more if anybody fancies joining us for delicious food and a good chat.

Looking forward to the York meetup tomorrow at 12.30pm Barbakan, Walmgate.
Sorry you won't be joining us this time greyduster but hope you enjoy your family party.

Thank you for the recipe Kirbygirl. One for Christmas I think!
Great photo Artyfarty

Will definitely visit Barbakan again next time I’m in York, lovely food

Another friendly get-together yesterday with excellent food and massive cakes; three cakes and five spoons and we still couldn't finish the meringues. Good photo showing the dainty puddings artyfarty.

Nice to meet you kirbylass and
thanks for the recipe. It sounds delicious.

See you all in the new year, I hope.

Good to see all you grans again. The Barbakan was such a lovely place to have our lunch. I would certainly be happy to go there for our next meet up. Great food and those puds were something else!
