*~#%&+! Well folks, as Chris said, we are gutted (and fifty other expleatives as well). I shall miss meeting old friends (and Rick) and all those I have been looking foward to meeting for such a long time. If I could get to Chris' I'd go and eat all those choccies but trains are in chaos and roads likewise! I hope to see you all soon, Love from a very p***ed off Viv! LOL xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thanks for letting me know, Mandy and Pat. The sun is trying to come out here LOL - but the roads are attrocious, I know. Still waiting for a reply from Ann Morgan but it's only a few minutes since I sent her a message. I have to make the decision and it has to be that the meet is CANCELLED. Thanks everyone. Mags xxx

Weather report from West Wiltshire! Back from the school run, loads of idiots out driving this morning. It's slushy and mucky, and although the sky's brightening a bit, it's just started to snow again here. I've just rung Pat and we've made the very disappointing decision not to attempt it - so sorry Mags and everyone. OH says that part of the M4 is almost closed, and he passed one minor accident on his way to work (which is the same way I'd have to go). I also had chocs to bring - only Quality Street, very poor comparison to the hand piped chocs LOL - but sooo disappointed. It's also very cold here, only 1 degree, so bit concerned about actually making it back from Bristol safely. Mandy :(

Mags Report 8 Feb 2007 09:43

EXACTLY my thinking, Viv! LOL Just rung the pub - they were fine about it. Think I'll crawl back into bed now - after doing the Granny bit from Tuesday evening until last night, I could do with some extra kip! Hope to meet those I haven't some other time. It's disappointing but just one if those things. Thanks to everyone for their interest anyway. Mags xxx

HI Everyone, Sorry this has had to be cancelled, but in the circumstances I think it was the right thing to do. I was looking forward to meeting up with everyone, but I am sure that we can rearrange something fairly soon. Jill xx
