Spoke to her on Tuesday night. She'll be around again (mnet) in a week or so. She's fine - lots of snow where she is which she says looks v pretty.

JanH · 29/01/2004 10:54

Oh, good, thanks, sykes! (Have emailed her a couple of times, is she having PC probs?)

Sort of. Hope last night was good. I'm renting a cottage near Stockport at Easter - lots of friends/family there and FF and I are going to drink a pub dry one night.

Tinker · 29/01/2004 10:57

Oh, say hello to her from me. FF? Drink a pub dry? Surely not?

sykes · 29/01/2004 10:59

We'll do our best ..... it could be dangerous as I think we're both rather fond of the odd vat or two of wine.

Last night was great, it was lovely to meet beety and Mr beety and the Faraday lecture was interesting if baffling. (frequencies, hertzes etc.) I'd never been to Bridgewater Hall either so that was exciting too. (ds1 went on a school trip, he got to see the giant springs in the basement!)

If you're going to be up at Easter should we try to arrange a Mancs meetup then? Are you up for a whole week?

Hi, Tinker!

Hi Jan to you too.

Intrigued by the "cottage" in Stockport

sykes · 29/01/2004 11:08

Tinker - NEAR - Stockport. I don't really fancy a holiday next door to the precinct .... I've got somewhere in Hayfield that I may book, really wanted Mellor but no luck. Don't want to go too far into Derbyshire as family is in Hazel Grove/Disley. Any suggestions?

oliveoil · 29/01/2004 11:14

I am from Offerton in Stockport. Small world.

My auntie lives in Hayfield. Is that were they filmed League of Gentlemen or is that Hadfield?

sykes · 29/01/2004 11:20

Not sure - I'm originally from Woodsmoor/Bramhall. You must be fairly close to FF then - or don't you live there anymore OO? I don't - now in Surrey.

JanH · 29/01/2004 11:23

OO's in lovely Oldham, aren't you, petal? Where custardo and Rhubarb fled from.

Not sure, stressy - but I actually LIVE in Godstone village - the farm is only five minutes up the road - not very good at big meet ups, though. Have you been before - it's great for childrem Had DD1's third birthday party there.

oliveoil · 29/01/2004 11:33

Ahem, actually JanH, I am in Chadderton NEAR the dreaded Oldham town centre and I will have you know I am in the nicer bit of it. Have lived here for nearly 2 years and still think it is crap . Searching for the hidden gems.

Is FF in Poynton? Think that was mentionned once, could be wrong.

Woodsmoor is nice. Did anyone go to Priestnall School?

No, just met SB. Oh, yes and met Pupuce a long time ago - only other mnet meetup I've done. Hope the weather is good - although there's a big indoor play barn/soft area - and another indoor things where they have little bikes/tractors and things. Loads to do. It's lovely in the summer, lots of animals and loads and loads of outdoor play stuff.

popsycal · 29/01/2004 12:27

i had an email from her at the weekend - she is just off line atm and will be back soon!

fio2 · 29/01/2004 14:47

Janstar · 29/01/2004 18:06

Oliveoil...I've been to Offerton! I have friends who live in Bosden House, Offerton Rd...do you know it? It's lovely. And I'm a soft southerner

Come on Sykes

marthamoo · 30/01/2004 21:25

Yes, I'm missing you too FF (only person I've met online who knows Edgeley pubs!)

sykes · 30/01/2004 21:33

She's fine - just offline. Spoke to her on Tuesday evening. My phone is odd tonight - can't make calls - presume someone hasn't hung up? I'd phone FF tonight but I can't get a dialing tone - why?
