Cool :)

SookieD · 16/01/2011 18:08

About 10.30/11 sounds good. Time for folk to travel but before it gets too busy?

dispondantandthensome · 16/01/2011 21:45

I am thinking about coming but I dunno feel shy!

SookieD · 16/01/2011 21:56

Dispondantandthensome - we are all in the same boat so please don't be shy. I think only a couple of the folk on here know/have met each other.

We can all be brave together. For me it's the thought of being able to say all those things that I really wish I could say out loud/bring up whenever I meet other 'normal' friends....but of course can't...that makes me want to meet all you other stars to remind myself that we are all feeling the same way. If you wanna get it all off your chest, or just sit and listen to others do the same, then please do come along.

I assume we'll all just turn up and look for the similar kinda shattered, slightly hysterical women all looking a bit lost?!

I'll be the one buying the meringue....(though last time I was there, the Edinburgh Dobbies had a particularly wide range of tasty cakes)

dispondantandthensome · 16/01/2011 22:01

I guess I would not know where to start! tho I am sure we could start by cake eating Grin

I am not sure how to get to it tho and am not a good driver so think am ruled out on that front in truth!

glittery · 16/01/2011 22:10

i do love a Dobbies meringue! Grin

dispondantandthensome If your coming off the city bypass its the Galashiels turnoff can't miss it.

dispondantandthensome · 16/01/2011 22:54

have never driven to edinb you see Blush

Have your children (any of you) got aspergers or mild autism by any chance (not that mine has a diagnosis)

shaz298 · 17/01/2011 09:47

Dispondant - where are you coming from? Could maybe meet up with someone and follow them?

DOn't actually have to go into Edinurgh Centre ( that is scarey) so it's basically motorway all the way. xx

glittery · 17/01/2011 10:12

Right so what did we decide, Saturday the 29th at 11am?

PS, i'm not on facebook for the time being, spending way too much tme on there and really needing to get on with other things. :)

dispondant maybe?

Anyone else?

Joooly, would offer to drive you but may have family with me ( let u kno if that changes). Really easy to drive to maybe about 20 mins further on from the airport turn off so an hour from Stirling should give you plenty time.

Maybe nearer the time I'll check which exit etc and post it.

shaz298 · 18/01/2011 10:30

If it's easier Jooly I we could meet somewhere and then go in my car? Maybe the park and ride at Queensferry or something?
