    Its a shame I've been busy for the two times you have met. Walthamstow would be fabby for me (just one bus away) being in East London. Will try and have a think about nice cafes and post a few.

    Great, Toonie, I shall check out the Hornbeam centre and take it from there, will let everybody know in January!

    Edited to say: I spoke with the Hornbeam Centre, they have a cafe running on Saturdays, open between 10 and 4, also on Saturdays they have a stall that sells locally grown veggies, it sounds just the ticket!

    They close over the Christmas holidays and will re-open on 10th January. I cannot make the 10th but might be able to make the following Saturday, please let me know if anyone is available to trek it to Walthamstow for yet another OS Meet!

    I should be able to meet on that day, will have to check when my nephew is having his birthday party though, just in case. Look forward to meeting.

    Ok are there any more people able to make 17th January at the Hornbean Centre, Walthamstow? They have a cafe (someone who goes there regularly told me it is really lovely), open between 10 and 4, and a locally grown veg stall.

    Here is the link on how to get there:

    If a few are interested, I am happy to be there on that day, from 1-ish pm

    Hi all, happy New Year, and a bump to refresh the new meet (if anyone is interested). Please let me know if you do want to meet on 17th January at the Hornbeam centre.

    I am going there anyway but if I have no replies of people wanting to meet I might go at a different time - if anyone wants to meet up I shall be there around lunchtime (1-ish pm).

    I am also going to update the first post.

    Thanks and happy New Year all!

    I'd love to meet, should be able to make 1pm no problem and hopefully I can pick some nice veggies for Sunday dinner!

    Sorry, can't make it that weekend as it's a home rugby match that weekend (and my season ticket hasn't been used as much as it should be!).
