About us
Let's get together again for coffee, walks, meals, cinema, live music, theatre, shows and have fun - all suggestions welcome. We're a friendly bunch!
Please make sure you have a clear photo of your face on your profile, so we can recognise you when you come to an event. I'm afraid that we don't accept requests for membership if you don't have a clear profile photo of yourself.
All members are asked to pay £5 for their membership of this MeetUp group*.* Here is the link you can pay on:-

If you put your name down to attend an event but still haven't paid the membership fee by the end of July 2026, I'm afraid that your name will be removed from the event.
The cost of membership is £5 each year (from December 2025 to December 2026) . This is to cover the cost of the group being on the Meetup Group website. (this is currently around 400 dollars plus tax per year)
Please always be polite to other members of this group - and please also arrive on time at the events you have put your name down for. We look forward to meeting you at an event soon!
If you fail to arrive at three separate events, without letting the event organiser know that you are unable to attend, sorry, but you will forfeit membership of this group.
