Hi Everyone,
I hope that it is convenient for most of you as I have arranged the meet up for Saturday April 6th starting at 12 noon at The Windmill in York where we had our last meet up. As with previous meet ups if people can indicate their interest on this thread that would be great.
If people want to spread the word onto the other groups that they are members of I would be grateful if they could ask if people could express their interest via this thread. I will ask those attending to send me friend requests so I can send any info and contact numbers to them directly nearer the time. I have made a reservation but the venue has asked me to call them shortly before the date to clarify how many people we are expecting to attend.
Although previous meetings have been booked from 12 to 2pm they have continued long beyond this as people got talking to each other and enjoyed the company. Friends and family have been made welcome previously but please make sure they are aware that the common factor in those attending is cancer and it is likely to be a significant topic of conversation. Also last time one or two people were staying over on their own on the Friday night beforehand and we arranged for people to meet up (if they wanted to) so that they weren't wandering the city on their own.
The venue is a public house called the Windmill on Blossom Street less than 1/4 of a mile from York Railway station. On the map attached it is the junction above where it says YORK in bold print. The venue has a website ( Windmill Inn ) and serves food and real ales as well as all the usual beverages. It has level access for anyone in a wheelchair although the main entrance is over a few cobbles. It is on a junction opposite Micklegate Bar (pictured below) which is one of the entrances through the city walls. It has a Premier Inn hotel on one side of it and a taxi firm (Fleetways) on the other. It is about 100 yards from a York City Council run car park on Nunnery Lane, Council run car parks in York are free to disabled badge holders without time limit and not restricted to disabled parking bays.
To walk from the railway station leave via the main exit and the city walls are in front of you. Stay on the same side of the road and walk over a bridge and up a slight hill and the venue is the white building on your right on the junction of Queen Street and Blossom Street.
I hope to see lots of you there. Gragon xx
Hi all
Love the photos and I am afraid that I have to echo Annette's words in saying "You all look so well!". I hope you had a wonderful day, getting to know one another.
I wonder could someone add names to the faces? The only one I can guess to a good degree is the guy with the beard, I hazard a good guess that is Gragon lol. If it's not, I do apologise, ladies!
All the best to you, you have probably talked yourselves hoarse
