Re: Di is over in Uk in May!! Who is up for a meet up!
Emmmm are we having name badges so we know who is whom ( or is it who is who....)
Cos we all only exist in cyber reality really
so when we jump back into the real world will we know each other other than our avators
or web names?
I don't want to shout out "Hi CID" and half the pub bolts for the door!!
Do you think we should have name badges or hats with our names on
and
is it an idea to bring our laptops and talk to each other via emails
I don't want to spill me drink on mine though

Hi Jimmy
thank you for letting me know and so pleased they are all having a good time , I would loved to have been there but old age and aches and pains limit my travel these day's.

Re: Di is over in Uk in May!! Who is up for a meet up!
Morning everyone, great to meet you all, shame you couldn't come Annie. Sorry I didn't stay long, we had been out shopping at Merry Hill and visiting the Cradley Churchyards most of the day, and it was so hot.
Also had an hour's drive back home, and had to call in to see our Grandchildren, it is my Granddaughter's 11th Birthday today, they all went to Alton Towers yesterday, had a lovely time on all the rides. I am definitely going to the swimming pool today, to cool off. Hope everyone else got home ok and hope you didn't get any ghostly visitations in that Hotel Pete
Best Wishes from Lin.

Re: Di is over in Uk in May!! Who is up for a meet up!
Well I'm back home now and what a great night
Annie, I kept my promise and we made a toast to Absent Friends (photo's later) although we nearly missed it as some of us were being given a guided tour of the pub by the very hospitable owner.
I looked at my watch and apologised and got back just in time
It was great meeting so many nice people and I'm sure Di and Brian will never forget us, they were super!
Thankyou all and a special thanks to NL and Wolvie (for everything)
