    Enjoy your day Carolbee!

    JackieO a spring meeting in London would be lovely, the Age Exchange cafe has been refurbished and is open longer hours now. And they have better and more varied food (alas, more expensive). Long gone the days of the 50p pot of tea and 70p homemade cake! But at least we won't be chucked out for meeting regularly there! Were you with us when it was suggested that "we pay an association fee to meet"?
    Finally I'm an OAP and can travel free (in London at least!).

    Carolbee - is there room for another couple please? Joe & I would like to meet with some other MSErs and Faversham isn't too far from us.

    How would we recognise others?

    We're not too far away, in fact just over the river from Faversham on the Isle of Sheppey - would be quick to get there if there was a ferry or we had a boat!

    Looking forward to meeting you to JackieO and everyone else too.

    It might be only me as Mr Caterina has a dinner with ex colleagues to attend. He is going to check the exact time but I told him I don't want to rush in and out of a meetup. I am not mad about driving in the dark so I might just come alone on the train. How far is it from the station, please?

  • Caterina its probably a good 10 minutes walk depending on how fast you walk from the station to Macknades

    Thank you, 10 minutes no problem, I am sure I can make it in time, looked at timetables and I have nearly a half hour to get to the place. I hope the weather is dry!
