Hi Just checking in!!...are we wearing wigs, twigs or badges? I will be wearing my hubby on my arm just for the first half hour then he's off to do some shopping for me. We will be quite recognisable as we are both tall and hubby wears a white moustache. It was once quite a different colour...sigh..how time flies. Do you know I have never in 35years seen him without it. Really looking forward to this. kat

Can I ask all those with a digital camera to bring it with them on Saturday please. I do have a digital camera but as yet have never put any on the GR photo page. So to be on the safe side it might be a good idea to have some back up. Thanks, Frances

Liz, I think a name badge would be a good idea, maybe we could all create something which we could wear on the day. Frances

In view of the thread from Louise who gets confused by who is who, and don't we all, maybe it would be a good idea to wear a sticker or name badge just to help us absent-minded oldies along.

Yes, It'll be great fun. I'm supposed to be working on my research right now, so had better get on with it, or I won't have a reason for being away from work at that time of year (to present at conference**quakes in boots**)! Just realised that my GR sub will expire on 20th Sept, so will have to deal with that before I come to Norwich to make sure I'm a bona fide GR member. LOL!! I may have to sleep in haybarns at some point if our dollar keeps slipping against the pound. Typical me to go at this time. In the last few weeks I've already lost about 2.5p in every dollar - which is only earning about 34p now. Cringe! I know - I shall have to come over and win the lottery (it's ok, I'm a British citizen from way back) then convert it to megamillions when I come home! Come to think of it, I wouldn't need a huge win to convert it to megamillions with this exchange rate, would I? Sue.

Glad you have seen the thread Sue, we are going to do a lot in the two days you are with us - hope your girls are ready for this! Looking forward to meeting you at long last! Frances

Yay, I feel honoured - a REAL meet for me! Thanks, Frances - you are thoughtful! What a nice start to the week for me. Sue :-))

It looks like we will be having another meet in September then! I have just emailed Sue to let her know, hopefully she will look in later. We will have to start another thread after this meet has taken place - two in one year - not bad for Norwich! Frances
