BCC girlies trip to Centre Parcs

Hi everyone

Thanks for your lovely comments. Jan, I loved your comment about ‘swimming under the stars in the outdoor pool’ - that sounds like a wonderful experience. We are going from Friday 15th January to Monday 18th January - if you or anyone else nearby would like to come and meet up for the day please let us know - the more the merrier!!

I can truly say that I do not know how I would have got through the six months since diagnosis without the lovely ladies I have cyber met on here, and I am so excited about meeting so many of them in SIX weeks time. They are all so strong and so positive, and I consider myself truly priviledged to have made so many amazing new friends. I know I have said it before, but this is my silver living to the black cloud that is breast cancer.

Love to you all

Shenagh xx

Last sentence should of course read ‘silver lining’ and that’s without any wine (yet) x

Peppa - thanks!

Jan - it’s good to know that there are plenty of options in the spa and that most of it isn’t boiling hot, either.

What’s a dry flotation tank, Linda? I’ve not heard of that…sounds intriguing.

Oh yes, swimming under the stars; definitely not to be missed!

So so so so so so so…true
She.
I know i don’t post often but i read and check up so many times a day and you are all always in my thoughts, i just can’t seem to be able to put my thoughts/words down on paper (as the saying goes)

XXXXXXX

Hi de Hi campers
What agreat idea She - day trips for everypone else so we can have a shin dig over lunch!
I have the direct number for aqua sana in sherwood and I am going to ring 'em and plead our case for a few massages etc. Even if they wont do massage we can still have facials, pedicure (if my toes nails are back) or manicure ( see previous for finger nails too) we shud also be able to use most of the spa rooms and pools - as jan and bahons say avoid excessive heat or cold.
We can use the pool and rapids that is part of the ‘sub tropical paradise’ also there are loads of out door stuff - I fancy absailing rock climbing and the tree top walk - any one else - bet pixie will!
Mrs Focka (sharon small star_) is doing the T shirts
Lyn I need to work out the money issues re villa 3 with you - I own you some dosh. and I hate owing money!

Hello my little pink friends

Shazza, that sounds fab to me and I’m sure everyone else will agree!! Will you be able to transport everything to CP?? I’m coming by train (well, three trains) so will be trying not to carry too much!

Love and hugs to everyone - hang in there - we are all doing SO well

Shenagh xxxxxx

Hope you don’t mind me butting in…

Have a great time - you lot!!

As one of the Storm Riders (I’m sure you’ve seen the thread!) who had a weekend away together - all I can say is - GO FOR IT!

We had the most incredible experience - we’d all met on here, a few had met in “real life”, but mostly, we were “cyber buddies”. And we had a ball, loads of laughs, a good few tears, and made friends for life.

Wish we’d thought of t shirts!!

Have a brilliant time,

rachel, i’m afraid you wont be getting me up any trees!!! I had to go up a ladder into the loft for xmas decorations - i was a quivering wreck - such a scaredy-pants when it comes to anything higher than a bar stool!!! Also a wee bit water phobic, which is why i like to keep my feet on terra ferma - i’m quite sure i’ll find plent of that in sherwood!
Shazza - i’m happy to go with eveyone else - would’nt want to look like the odd one out!! I’m a size 10-12 (erring mostly to the 12 now unfortunately!). Are we having our user names on the t-shirts?
x

Oh can’t believe I’ve only just found this thread! There is NO WAY they’re gonna stop me using the spa; it’s utterly ridiculous. I will lie if I have to, so there.

Rach, I’d be up for a bit of abseiling and using the indoor climbing wall IF time permits (bet that’s shocked you!). It certainly won’t be a priority though; drinking, gossiping, eating, and pampering all come first (and in that order!). Swimming under the stars sounds nice, but won’t it be a bit cold swimming outdoors in January??

To any of the ladies who have been to CP before, do you think it will be difficult to get reservations in the restaurants for 20 of us if we leave it until we get there?? Always thinking about food
:slight_smile:

Aww Shenagh, you’re so sweet.

Bring it on!!! Caro xxx

Sharon sounds great for a tenner!! still havent sent my £8 cos i got confused as whether you wanted it yet or not! Doesn’t take much these days to confuse me!!
Unfortunately i will need size 18, hate it!!!

love debs xxxx

wooo wooooo this sounds so good -
Gertie (sharon) I have sent you a cheque and yes I had to go up three flights of stairs to get your address !!!
Pixie - lmao - bar stool it is then !
LMxxxx - thank you honey I have been reading you guys since my Dx so owe you a huge hug be it real or cyber ((())))
caro - the water is warm! its lovely and I’m on for anything providing my poor old bloaty body is upto it. (secretly i really want to do the tree tops cos frankie did it like water off a ducks back when she was 10)
For those of you coming by train no worries i will take anyone shopping or better still I can take orders. I think I have you all on my mobile as the CP bunch
One lass has dropped out (a girl who knows shazza of Fb) and so we have a one space for one more lovely lass to take on the great and the good of nottingham
PM me if you want to come
must get dressed builders coming this morning xxxxx

Morning gorgeous girlies

Rachel, I have someone from another thread who MIGHT be interested in coming. I’m just going to text her right now and will let you know a.s.a.p. She’s been through a real crappy time and is so lovely, and I think this might be just what she needs.
