Manchester area not just Oldham meet up....

Hi everyone

a few ladies met up in Oldham a month or two ago , just in the cafe at a local garden centre. We had a great time. And I trying to organise somethng again. We thought it best to post on a new thread to let anyone in the surrounding area know they are invited, not just an Oldham residence restriction!

I sm hoping the weather doesn’t get worse as that could put paid to travelling around, but the current plan is to meet at newbank garden centre in royton on Friday 10 dec , for cake,coffee and a chat. The three Cs that are actually nice to have!

There isn’t a clique of ladies, we don’t know each other really well and we are friendly and welcoming and pretty damn gorgeous too come to think of it. Offer to join us is open to anyone on here at any stage of treatment at all. The ladies last time ranged right through the decades, from 30s to 60s.

Have a read of the Oldham meet up thread I have just bumped if you are interested and want further info. But please keep an eye on here as it may need cancelling pending evil snow, but if we do then we will just rearrange til the new year.

There’s a moving forwRds after breast cancer seminar by bcc on 12 jan, 1-3pm, at the nightingale centre. Details on the events bit of this site. I was thinking of going, pending organising childcare, and thought i’d just throw the idea out there to my manchester bc buddies. Hope 2011 is a better year for us all.

I’m at the Genesis on the 24th for my 6 month assesment but am up for going on the 12th

Good, you can tell me where it is then!

hi Everyone

i wouldn’t mind popping along to that. Keep me out of trouble for a few hours. i,m starting chemo fri 7th but fingers crossed i’ll be feeling fine and will be able to make it. Be nice to meet others in the area as well.

Is the nightingale centre at Oldham Hospital?

the Nightingale (Genesis) is next to Wythenshawe hospital. do you have Sat NAV?if you do, the post code is M23 9LT. if not, you can Google directions. I would offer to pick you up, Vickie but you live in the opposite direction. you could get on the motorway and come off at junction 2, I think, on M56

Still trying for childcare, will keep you posted!
