Thank you. I can't see for looking! 🙂
 
I will be at Glasgow again. Enjoyed meeting everyone last year. It will be tinged with sadness as Alison won't be there this time. @Carolg are you going again?

I'm hoping to get to the Birmingham meet in September, I've put it in my diary. As long as it doesn't clash with Beaver/Cub/rugby/band commitments I should be fine - my kids have a better social life than I do!

Yes, it will be The Waterhouse, which is our regular venue in Manchester 🙂 It's very near to the Town Hall and easy to find 🙂
 
Thank you - the 15 July can't come soon enough - really looking forward to meeting all who can make it x

@Northerner - HELP please, sorry for using this thread Alan but I have a problem logging on to DUK ..atm I'm using my mobile to post to you.
As soon as I tap on •log in• (using my Tablet) a message appears: Diabetes Uk - ERROR. When i type in my name - it says my name could not be found or it says someone else has that name. Any idea how i can get round this please.

Hi Jackie, I'm sorry I can't imagine what the problem is. Are you able to access the site without logging in i.e. read posts?

I don't know what the problem was Alan - I tapped here & there - swore a couple of times - almost threw my flippin Tablet but decided against - then the whole problem disappeared - still no idea what the problem was. Strange. But I'm logged in now thank goodness. Daren't log off in case it happens again😡. Bizarre. So sorry to have troubled you with my troubles, panicked I think, can't do without the forum, rely upon it - will try not to do it again too often!😳🙄 thanks again Alan x

Last time I went to Piccadilly and it was around a 12-15 minute walk. Oxford Road is a bit nearer but not much (google is saying 10-12 minutes walk from there) - just bang them in google maps for directions.

Hi,
New to the forum - would like to come to the London meet and meet everyone but not sure how you find out time and location?
Thanks
Anna
 
Hello Anna

The dates of the forum meet ups are on the first thread of this post page 1. The next London meet up is down as 11th November, Northerner puts up the details for the pub and time nearer the date. I hope you can make it along to one.
