Have added Kim, but she has not confirmed the date is ok. I have pm'd Ann from Darlo. I do hope she and Jim can come.

That's 14 so far. Should be a good meet, loads of new faces for me to meet at long last.

Hi Susan, do you mean our Fred from Totteridge Lane? I am sure he changed his name to Badger. Not heard from him for ages, hope all is well. with them. He was the first person from GC I spoke to on the telephone.

Have met them both, a few times, the last being at the 'Tall Ships' in Tynemouth. I will never forget that day, Ann from Darlo and her hubby and many others. it was a complete wash out, but it didn't deter us from our picnic, in the pouring rain. Oh what a laugh we had.

Yes, that's the one....I am sure he is still about on one of the Aussie or Canadian threads. What a gent he is. He got a cert for me a few years back...bless his cotton socks.


I keep meaning to go to see the 'Tall Ships' and the GN Run......one of these days I will get organised.

Did I ever mention?....When I get to put my house up for sale....Newcastle here I come:-)))))

Oh now you have got me going, just as i was about to settle down and sleep.

I wonder if Jan in Yorkshire and Sue in Wakefield, also Sue from Otley are about anywhere. Oh and of course Gemma in Wakefield. I have all their phone numbers somewhere. It would be great to see them all again.

Sorry...I cannot make the 6th.


To be honest, I was thinking more of the spring time. ( Granddaughter has very important choir gigs until after Xmas)) But do go ahead without me. If there is a springtime meet I will certainly try to make it.

Hi All just a quick post onto thread.

Went up to town this morning and I definitely think The Mile Castle will be best ( imo) for the meet,it's near to Central station,has three (shallow)steps at entrance,is on three floors.... but has lifts.Nice place!
http://www.pubsnewcastle.co.uk/TheMileCastle.html

Have pm'd Jenny with details,so now waiting for her reply

Union Rooms......nice big place,but lots of stairs and no lift
Yates....not too good imo
