Don't worry about it, Jo.

Hi June

Gill (Ravelling) and I are both Billinghamites, too. Unfortunately it was just the two of us last week so we stayed for 1 hr then closed shop so to speak as we were both tired and had met at half term to chat.
We are possibly looking at Wednesday 8th December if there are enough takers, otherwise we could meet either at Costa coffee or M&S cafe as if there aren't many takers we could fit in some retail therapy. However,it isn't very private and could be busy. So we will see how may can make it and then decide whether to continue with Macmillan or meet elsewhere.

Hope this helps
Gill (yes, another one)
