ladyleftfieldlover there used to be meet ups in Oxford which were quite well attended. Would you be interested in reviving them? Lovely photo of the Glasgow grannies. Please enlighten me as to why Glesca ?

Lovely photo of the Glasgow Gang.

Greenfinch Glesca is the Scottish version of Glasgow.

You were missed Grandmabatty.

Thanks Charleygirl. I should have guessed .??

You all look as though you had a wonderful time. What happy faces. ?

ExDancer Tue 14-Jun-22 20:39:14

Have there been any more 'meet up's?'
If so, could we have a list please, then other areas could follow suit. It sounds like a really good idea.
I'd be happy to join one in the S Cumbria area if there is such a thing, or to organise one myself if there's an interest.
I bet you had a great afternoon, it certainly looked like.

Here are the names. Espee is our official photographer.

Thanks Marydoll! ?

Great to put names to faces.

Lad to see lots of happy faces. Thank you for the good wishes for my daughter. She has been ill for some years but the flare ups are difficult.
I do hope you awe all hoarse, buzzing from the good company and enjoyed some retail excitement.
Next time ?

I did have everyone's permission.?

grannydarkhair Tue 14-Jun-22 22:19:44

Urmstongran Thanks. Not got my specs on, and my “dry eyes” are particularly wet tonight, so vision not good. Someone should have taken a snap with Espee in it. Or she’s maybe like a lot of us (me) and hates being photographed.

Wonderful!

Grammaretto Tue 14-Jun-22 22:27:38

It was a lovely day with lots of fun and laughter.. Thanks to Marydoll for arranging it.
We were missing a few so next time hopefully. I eventually got the 4pm bus.
I look forward to somebody reviving the Edinburgh meetups too.

Grammaretto Tue 14-Jun-22 22:28:45

Esspee doesn't want to be on the internet.

Marydoll Tue 14-Jun-22 22:31:26

Pssssst don't tell Espee, I have managed to use my miniature pen camera to take a photo, without her knowledge.

You grans are so sharp, that I am a bit concerned, I may have blown her cover. wink

Marydoll Tue 14-Jun-22 22:32:27

PS. Her bosses at MI5 will not be happy! grin

grannydarkhair Tue 14-Jun-22 22:35:10

Marydoll That’s great, wouldn’t want to walk past her in the street! ?
