Westfield makes it a longer journey for me (over an hour), as I am south of central London) but its still do-able - just need to find a sitter. Parking charge is £2.50 an hour at Westfield (I really think it should be free, but it's not).

Squee, we have booked tickets to Edinborough, arriving 10th and leaving 15 August. Jean, we only have a small overlap, is this going to work? Can't wait to see some of the festival, AND Edinbourough, and meet some YLF-ers IRL!!!!

There's been some changes with my high school reunion dates which mean I might find it difficult to attend, so I might be in for a London meet-up. Might. And only if it's a weekend.

Is there final agreement about the date?

Jean is getting back to us with a date, depending on the schedule for theatre times and when she needs to teach x

I hate to be the one holding things up- If others want to coordinate a date , I can try to be there and if not maybe throw out another date for those who could meet twice or just the other one. It seems as if there are enough people involved and that way those of you who need to make travel plans can do so sooner.

Edinburgh will be less scheduled but also dependent on theatre times.
I am sorry to be so vague but am waiting on a schedule that involves ticket availability and 26 students!

I think we all completely understand Jean and since you've initiated the whole thing it's worth waiting to see what dates you can make.

Jean no worries from me, as long as we are still meeting at the Westfield shopping centre I don't need to make travel plans as I will drive down and it's school hols for me so I've kept the whole week free x

I agree! I would so love to meet you Jean (and all you fab UK lasses!), so it's definitely worth waiting a bit longer for specific dates;-)

Not a problem for me either. I am looking forward to seeing you again/meeting you for the first time.

You guys are so cute. Pictures please!

Hi All,
Looks like some free time for me will be Wed. the 10th. in the afternoon (after 12:30PM)
Probably have a show that evening.

How does that work ??

I'm in London one week to early to attend (would really love to *sigh*) - but regarding the meeting time etc...have you thought about using doodle? (http://doodle.com/?locale=en_GB)

Have a great time y'all

Unfortunately, it does not work for me
I was so hoping to be able to make it.

As I suggested earlier , maybe some of you can meet another time also if this is inconvenient, why not? I doubt everyone can make the same times. There are probably enough if us to make 2 meeting times.
O. - when could you make it?

Great news, Jean. I am free on the 10th and would really love to meet up. It would be fab to meet the other forum members too, so I'm definitely open to another date as well, if this would be more convenient for Ornella and other lasses.

The thing is, my preference will almost always be weekends, especially after September when my son starts school and I'll return to full time working hours.

But Wed 10th is not good for me as my dad might fly here around then, so don't count on me. Boo.

Maybe others can meet on a weekend, I may be able to but will not know until later. Right now I know that Wed. will be a free day on the trip. Saturday, the 13th might be a possibility. I will need to know whether we are seeing a matinee or evening performance. i can try and find that out. I will let you know.

I'll pop it in my diary but not sure whether I will have the availble funds to make it It looks like my car is going to need a new Turbo in the next few months and furbaby Marley's breath is 'honking' again so I think he may need some more teeth out soon and I'm off work for the 6 week summer break and it's always an expensive time of year x

Started a new thread- plans have changed.

I can now meet
Tues the 10th
or Friday the 12th

Both days after 12:30PM

Maybe we can post on new thread to keep things more current.

Thanks!!
