Orion25 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Hi All,Not too sure if I am taking a fat chance here, but here goes anyway. We loved the last coffee club meeting so much at Piggly Wiggly's in Kloof, and have chatted with a few people who were there and we now would like to organise another get together for forumites, new and old and who know maybe some of the "dinosaurs" will grace us with their presence. I see there is a tab for PMB & DBN, yet we met halfway and some of us travelled even further, so lets just say anyone in KZN.We were looking around mid to end April for this and as of yet no venue has been discussed. PLease let us know if you are interested and all suggestions of venues will be considered obviously within reason, preferably where kids are welcome as our children are as much a part of this as we are. Looking forward to MANY positive replies.ThanksTP.S. Hope I haven't stepped on any toes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Good on you Orion25, wonderful idea. There is no chance that you have stepped on anyone's toes, get togethers or coffee club meetings may be arranged by anyone that wishes to do so.

Orion25 Posted February 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 Hi Mara,Thanks for that, I was not too sure of the process but now i feel better.@ all in KZN, please come join us, if you are worried we will not take pic's and post on the forum as many of us are still in "hiding" from friends. family and bosses. So we do understand.Lets just get together and chat and offload, and get to know those others who we can call on for support through this LOOONNNGGG process.T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Short&Tall Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 Not too sure if I am taking a fat chance here, but here goes anyway. HiyaYou are totally taking a fat chance - how dare you! LOL (My OH has something set up on the computer that is stopping my put smilies on here - just in case someone thinks I mean it!)P.S. Hope I haven't stepped on any toes. LOL! - since the last meet-up I have been hoping someone else would suggest another one.Count me in please we will be there (Short&Tall = 2 adults)Having chickened out of the first meet-up - if there are any people who are feeling a bit chicken about it - do come along it was really warm and friendly.(Just in case I am also going to the Magna Moving Internationally meeting in PMB tonight if any of you are going to be there).

Danie.v.H Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Hi allI would like to suggest either the 26 Mar 2011 or 2 Apr 2011. As for venue's there is the Piggly Wiggly, Spur in Hillcrest or RJ's Hillcrest.RegardsDanie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion25 Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Hi Danie,I think Piggly Wigglys too as we went there last time and it was great, and there is place for the kids to play too, they also do seperate bills for those wondering.Personally the 2 April suits us better but what about all you others or ami I going to have to PM you all? (not that I mind) T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikimont Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 2 April better for us too. Do piggly wiggly serve sushi What time of day are u thinking of ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Hi Orion 25 Thanks for organising!The 02nd April at Piggly Wiggly sounds good. Please just send out a confirmation of time and venue closer to the 02nd.RegardsApollo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Short&Tall Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Hi OrionThanks for this - either date was good for us and we are fine re time of day as well.We enjoyed Piggly Wiggly the last time - and that separate billing system they used was great.That outside setting away from the other groups of people was also great it meant we could chat away to our hearts delight without upsetting other groups. Hopefully I will recognise some faces this time and not walk around the other large groups asking if they were "Flockies table" which got some good laughs last time!!

Orion25 Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 @Short & Tall,Have you heard from Flockie lately? I haven't seen her around the forum, are they still in SA? @ Apollo, have you heard from Gwyn? are they also going to join us? Maybe I should just phone her.@ Jack, Re you going to be able to make 2 April? It would be good to see you all before you up up and away.So lets see, we haveOrion 25 = 2 adults & 3 kidsShort & Tall = 2 adultsDanie V.H = 2 adults & 2 kidsMikimont = 2 adultsApollo = 2 Adults ?kidsI think around 1.30pm at Piggly Wiggly Kloof, are all in agreement?Looking forward to getting together.T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
