A Manchester Meet up?

[MerlinsBeard]

Seems there a few Manchester MNers who would like a meet up.

I know the SHineys are having one but feels wrong to gate crash if we haven;t posted!!

I am not volunteering to organise one, just starting a thread so other people can

I am far to lazy and likely to change my mind to do that!!

central manchester also less of an option for me due to extra time to get in/out and pick kids up from school etc

Yes, I know her cousin C, my good friend is best friends with C, she is the one that works in civic, initial J. I'll have to have another look at your photo. Do you remember when Wayne Sleep used to come in?

su I must know J then. Profile pic a bit far away, there are others there though- but am much fatter now than I was then!

Am not remembering Wayne Sleep though!

J has black hair and wears glasses, recently seperated from her husband- has two girls.

Cirque were just setting up when we went there on Sunday.

oh sorry forgot i had namechanged!!

It's MoM btw !!

Would a latecomer be welcome?

I desperately need to talk to some adults!! Am a bit scared though. I will be the frumpiest, dumpiest one there!

hellooooo beth, welcome !

Um, not had a call back but think I may have forgotten my mobile number when asked for it as hesitated and then rambled .

Will give them a ring back tomorrow!

I have just sat and read the whole thread. That's how sad I am!!

Someone mentioned Black Sheep Wool. I've been there. I grasped that bit of info like a mad loon, so delighted that I knew where someone was talking about! [saddo]

suwoo I can't wok her out from your FB but have just seen someone I went to school with! (JZ)

thanks belle x

beth, whereabouts are you ? (vaguely)

Do you live somewhere near to black sheep? And are you a knitter?? (nosey)

Yes, I am a knitter. I live about 15 mins away from BSW, in a shabby little dive called Ashton.

Disclaimer; I live in the nicest bit. Naturally.

Knitter, I'm a wannabe knitter. I am about to book on a course- unless you want to teach me for less than £30 . Can we chat knitting on fb? Will you fr me if you havent already?

natch !

Whatever happened to the Hippodrome? Did it get saved?

Beth! Come to my Knit n Natter group! Next meeting tomorrow night, 7pm, Warrington centre near the library!

suwoo, can you get to Warrington too? I can teach you for free! And yes to chatting knitting on FB, we're friends already, that was the only way you could invite me to join the meetup group.

(Sorry to all non-knitters!)

Sadly, I cannot get to your group, DH away, no babysitters, I would get lost anyway. I have the navigational skills of a blind man in the dark.

No offence to any blind men who are in the dark.

I have fallen off this in active convos too many times!!!
So am marking my, and dd's place.
Life is truly bad here atm... so hope all is well with all and marking my place as have a week off from the 8th and would love to meet you all

But life goes on, right? Need to maintain normality for my lovely girl. So scared.

Scary life doesn't have to go on, what's happening?
