Hi all

Glad it was fun - sorry I missed you - what withall I should have just jumped in the river & swum to Southbank ...

And then we lost power for 3 hours tonight - blimey - first spit of a storm in 2 years & no power!

I had a great time but unfortunately had to leave early.

The first Sunday of every month is not good for me.

I just wish I could've stayed longer.

It was good to meet you Jackie even if it was only for a short time.

But we're organising a Christmas Drinks mini meet for the first week in December, hope to see you there.

Well  I  am  so  happy  to  hear  you  all  had a  wonderfull  day,  it was tempting  to take a drive down  but  I am really  glad  I  didn't  not because of all you  lovely  ladies and  one find gentleman BUT  I  had a new grandson  born  at 6.,58 am 7th October  (  my  husbands birthday)  so  I  would  have been away.  So  a  double celebration  mind  you  his big brother was born  on  the  6th October and we all said  then  "Isn't it good  he wasn't born  tomorrow  on  Poppa's birthday  he  will  have  his own  day"  but  this  little  one  had a  mind  of  his  own!!

Anyway  glad  you  all had a  great time  and are  lucky  enough  now  to  put  a face to the name!!!!!!

kind regards Jenn
