Hi Thanks everyone! Today was really great! You are all wonderful people and I so enjoyed meeting and talking to you all. I'm so grateful to Genes for being here so that I could meet you all. As She said, I'm hoping us Wakey lot can meet often and the rest of you can join us when you can. I'm not going to mention names as I'd hate to miss anyone out, but you were all so kind to me today as a newbie to meets. It's great that although we are all different ages, from different backgrounds etc, we all got on together so well! I'd love to go to your meet in Manchester, She, but think it's too short notice to figure out babysitters etc, but I'd love to join you another time - the chinese banquet sounds so yummy! She - next time I eat a Costco muffin I'll think of you :) I'm so glad that everyone else had such a great time too. Joanne p.s. Craig - don't forget to let us all know when your baby arrives - I'm so excited for you!!

Thanks Joanne for organising the day, Gaynor and myself thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, it was a brilliant idea to combine it with the Family History Fair. Thanks Keith for picking us up from the station and taking us back again. Hope to see you all again soon. June and Gaynor xxxx

Hello all that went to Wakefield. Have managed to get my photos onto my pc. I only got the camera a few days ago, it was the first time I had used it and had never used a Digital one before. They are not brilliant but i am sure you will all recognise each other. If you send me your Email addy I will send them to you. But only to those who went to the meet at Wakefield. If you want to put them onto the GR Photo's page OK. Hope to speak to you all soon. Jennyxx
