As I don’t drive and would find getting to the Bath meet-up a bit long , it was suggested that we could start a tentative meet-up at Cribbs causeway.
2nd June was a suggested date; lunch would be nice, but it could be morning or afternoon if that suits better.
Wajerfink?

I think that went ok, although a little short. Thank you Patience and NannaJane for coming.

Next meeting to be organised by someone else please.

grandMattie Tue 02-Jun-26 10:36:50

We are indeed. I’m taking the bus shortly!

NannaJane3 Sun 31-May-26 08:56:00

So are we going ahead with this? 2.30 at John Lewis cafe on Tuesday. X

grandMattie Sat 30-May-26 16:34:54

Just pushing this up.

Meet-up at Cribbs, top of escalator near John Lewis’s cafe at 230 on Tuesday 2nd June.

grandMattie Wed 27-May-26 09:01:27

vena11, unfortunately I have a meeting on Monday afternoon and can’t make the morning.
Next time?

grandMattie Wed 27-May-26 08:13:24

That's brilliant. Thank you. Meet you all there on Tuesday!

Yes, good idea to meet at the top of the up escalator in front of the cafe.

And I'll be "holding the Daily Mail and wearing a red rose"... hahaha :-)

vena11 Wed 27-May-26 08:13:15

Such a shame I cant manage Tuesday, maybe next time if its a Monday.

NannaJane3 Wed 27-May-26 08:04:57

I’m coming on Tuesday and I think NannyAnnie is coming too. See you at JL cafe at 2.30. Lets meet by the top of the up escalator in front of the cafe. X

No, Avalon - that’s another group.

This meeting is at Cribbs Causeway;John Lewis for those like me (with no car) who find Fonthill difficult to reach.

BUT if there is only me and one other, it won’t happen.

25Avalon Tue 26-May-26 20:42:44

Sorry no can do. Is 2nd June at Fonthill Garden Centre in Bitton still on? I’m up for it.

grandMattie Tue 26-May-26 17:39:37

230 sounds ok.
That makes 2 of us patience. Any more?

Patience6and7 Tue 26-May-26 16:44:15

I can meet Tuesday 2 June in John Lewis, but would like to avoid rush hour too. Is it possible to meet slightly earlier, either 2 or 2.30 pm? Thanks.

grandMattie Tue 26-May-26 15:26:08

If there are more than two of us, that is…

grandMattie Tue 26-May-26 15:25:42

So to recap: -

Tuesday 2nd June
3pm
John Lewis

grandMattie Tue 26-May-26 15:24:29

John Lewis sounds good. Huw many now?
I can’t do Monday. An important meeting,
I’m only free on Tuesday afternoon.

vena11 Tue 26-May-26 14:15:37

Thanks GrandMattie , I would suggest John Lewis there are always plenty seats there. I can manage a Monday.

grandMattie Tue 26-May-26 13:56:07

Aliceej, I’ve no idea how to do Telegram.
I don’t really know Cribbs as I’ve only been twice - any suggestions at where we can go?
I suggest a 3 pm meeting for tea.
Ball is in your court now.

Patience6and7 Sat 23-May-26 11:54:42

I can get to Cribbs Causeway easily. Would like to meet up with you all. Please send details of date, time and where. Thank you.

NannyAnnie04 Mon 18-May-26 11:30:43

Hi please can I have details of any local meet ups. Thanks 👍

vena11 Sun 17-May-26 09:01:02

I can only manage Monday the 1st

NannaJane3 Sat 16-May-26 07:53:10

I’d like to join you on June 2nd if that’s ok. Anytime is fine as long as we avoid rush hour. X
