Just got back and had a lovely, relaxing day - thanks everyone who was there.

Quite a few pictures were taken so I will now toddle off and load the ones of my camera onto my pc and they may even get posted here tonight.

Carol and I got back at about 18.30. I got a call from OH to go and buy some chinese, because he and Fiona spent all day in Hornsea.

Carol and I had a great time meeting you all. I hope only good photos will be posted😱 LOL
 
Here are a couple - hope this works!!!

Gulp! It seems they are too big and I don't know how to make them smaller!

Alan will know how....🙂
 
Oh !!!!, left Hazel as she was travelling in another coach and got on the train realised in time it was the Kings Cross train running late - tried to phone Hazel but couldn't get her and the train left so she is on the wrong train going south :(

Edit - just had a call she has managed to change trains and is now travelling north to newcastle but there isn't another train to Edinburgh tonight so will have to stay overnight :( it was the same brand of train ant the correct time and you really couldn't hear what the announcer said! They should make these things clearer!

Oh no :( British trains are useless sometimes - I've been in that situation before, but not with as far to travel. Hope she finds somewhere decent to stay. Stupid trains 😡
 
Oh no!!! Hazel, hope you get home soon.

It was lovely meeting you all and I would not hesitate going to another meet or even thinking of trying to organise one in Manchester.

Can't get my photos small enough to satisfy the forum limit and am waiting for Northie to sort me out. I have uploaded them into my webshots online album so if anyone wants to see them, pm me and I will give you the link.
 
Had a lovely day was so nice meeting you all 🙂

Poor Hazel hope she gets a room sorted at Edinburgh and has got all the medication she may need.

If you pm me the link I might be able to copy them off your album Marg 🙂
 
Thanks everyone will pass on your regards, I hope she can get an hotel room in Newcastle on a Saturday night as well :(.
 
Oh no, poor Hazel. Especially when we had such a lovely time. What a way to end a lovely afternoon. Give her my love Carol.

(ps - on a lighter note ... its not just me having adventures with public transport then 😉 . When she gets back safe and sound, and after a good night's rest, she will hopefully have a good old laugh!)

Am sitting here giggling thinking Newcastle has to be better than a park & ride carpark!!!
 
Har-di-har-har MargB. I could give a guided tour of the White 3 route now - could make a fortune 🙂

Some of you had left before my son came to join us - he went to chat up a hen party at the pub who asked if he was John-the-stripper. It could only happen to us. 😉
 
Bet he loved that!!! In his fancy expensive top! Only sorry I did not take a picture of him now.

Errr ... it wouldn't have had anything to do with a certain clear liquid you were drinking, would it ? 😉 :D 😛
 
Water? Or was that just me?

Mmm let me think about that for a minute... YES but I only had two drinks (okay they were doubles so technically 4 drinks) 😉 😛. What can I say I am a cheap date...
