WLS get-together - can you come?
About 3 or 4 years ago, a group of us bandsters used to meet in London occasionally. It all died out as we all just got used to our bands and got on with life.
Two of the original group are meeting on the 16th October in Oxford Street. Non-bandsters welcome!!
Anyone up for it? Combine with early Xmas shopping??? Bring your partner and leave them doing the shopping while we drink coffee and discuss constipation!
We meet at 2 p.m. in the Garden Restaurant , 4th floor of Selfridges.
It is so very good to chat to people who know how all this feels!

What a shame but what fun you have had.
Idea.... how about next year we arrange a meet in the Midlands. Something daft and fun like a spa day. Then we could all go really mad and do an overnighter! Then people could come from all over. And it would give people time to save money AND a goal to lose weight!!!!! I just spent a day at Hoar Cross hall near Telford, stayng with a friend locally. It was FABULOUS!
Being a Granny is THE BEST!!

Right! Let's research! Something about the middle of England. Think Hoar Cross is too far north, although worth every second of the journey. Perhaps in a band across England by Birmingham? Luxury spa with overnight accommodation. NOT jsut a hotel witha spa, they get full of business peopel at conferences. A dedicated spa.
For, say, next March??

Just looked at map of England - Hoar Cross is just 2 hours 22 mins from Reading according to multi map and everyone else is living further north than i am.
To me it is VERY pricey! Overnighter at weekend is £195. Cheaper mid-week but most of us work.
It was true luxury! Rather over the top in fact but such fun! Could we all save up for that? Or should we look for something cheaper. I don't have the expense of young children etc.. You have an expensive wedding to go to! And Binty has several (??? Binty??) young children. When I had young children, spas were not part of my life!!! No way I could have afforded it!
But a spa DAY as opposed to overnight is a lot cheaper. Just harder to arrange travel.

When the kids are all back to school next week, I will have a little look round as well. And I really don't mind the travel.
