Well... I'd love to meet you all!

Anyone who thinks they might be interested in coming to meet and talk books, post here.

There are going to be lots of dates, ideas and places and i wonder if anyone would be willing to organise with me?? It would mean private messaging and perhaps moving to WhatsApp or email at some point. Maybe 3 of us?

En route! Heading into London on a melting soft May morning. What a joy.

Sorry I can't make it today. I hope you have a lovely meet!

CrepuscularCritter · 18/05/2024 08:34

Book is chosen. I would be second guessing myself, but I'm on the train and it's a done deal. Smile See you later!

SheilaFentiman · 18/05/2024 08:34

I had to quickly regroup because I accidentally spilt moisturiser on one choice!! All good, though.

Choosing a book is hard! I have narrowed it down to three options. No idea how I'm going to pick; it's like picking a favourite child.

Thanks for the email, can’t wait!

JaninaDuszejko · 17/05/2024 22:45

Hope you all have a fab time.

Thank you for the email!

StColumbofNavron · 17/05/2024 21:28

Hello all, @PermanentTemporary will be sending you all another email with my phone number (just in case) and the what three words location.

Without divulging everything here, meeting 12 noon, some bookish chat and rambling and a pub has been booked for 2pm where you can get food if you wish to (I will be).

For anyone who is worried about mobility, I am planning to be quite lazy tomorrow as I’ve still got some dodgy issues with my ankle.

Tarahumara · 17/05/2024 20:51

I can't make it either but hope you have a fab time!

TattiePants · 17/05/2024 20:42

Have a fabulous time.

BestIsWest · 17/05/2024 20:32

Hope you have a great time. I’m very envious. I will be stuck in a airport thinking of you all.

Hope you all have a great time tomorrow. Sorry I can’t make it, maybe next time!

FuzzyCaoraDhubh · 17/05/2024 17:43

I'm about to take flight if Ryanair ever gets its act together! Waiting...waiting...

Looking forward to tomorrow very much!

CrepuscularCritter · 17/05/2024 17:16

I have the book shortlist down to three, although one is very old and battered. Looking forward to meeting you all.

TimeforaGandT · 17/05/2024 10:03

Really looking forward to it - although still mithering over which book to bring!

PepeLePew · 17/05/2024 07:11

Thank you to all organisers. I'm looking forward to meeting you all. And the forecast has improved too.
