[Lisac1]

I'm just packing my bag for tomorrow, a friend of mines is here and asked if I'm packing a bottle of wine. Hadn't thought about it but now she's said it, it's an option lol. Is anyone else packing a bottle for there room ? X

[joanne gyte]

[jencath1977]

[Jarm79]

Hi everyone, I'm Josephine from Glasgow. Looking forward to meeting you all tomorrow - just hope I can get out of bed early enough to drive through!

[cmcadam1982]

Oh me! You've checked in and I haven't even packed my bag yet lol 😁 better get a move on I guess xxx

[AllyMcK]

Just checked in to hotel.
I will be in the hotel bar for 8pm with a vodka and coke in my hand. I hope to see some of you there.

[LillikaNic]

How does heading for the hotel bar around 8 sound for folks and people can join and / or nip off to bed as they need to? 😊

[cmcadam1982]

I've got a 3 hour drive to get to Edinburgh but wanted to put my girls to bed before I left but not sure if that's going to happen xx

[judimam]

Morning. Ladies who are staying tonight what time are you are arriving? Our train gets in to Waverley just after 8pm so wondered who would be around for a drink once we are settled. There's myself and Gill coming together from Durham xx

[Gingergill]

Hi everyone,
I'm Gill from Perthshire. Looking forward to meeting you all on Friday and a bit daunted too! But I'm sure it will be good and enjoying the thought of an evening off child care... 😊

[LillikaNic]

Just got a deal on a room for Thursday night so I've gone for it! Much less stressful than getting out the door on Friday morning! I'm not very good at staying up late though especially on school nights. Happy to meet anyone who is staying on Thursday for a Horlicks though 😉

[cja72]

Hi, I'm Carolyn and looking forward to meeting everyone Friday/Saturday (possibly including some faces to names re YBCN). I'm Edinburgh based so not sure I can justify a hotel stay on Thursday night but hope those that do enjoy it!

[Lizzy_BCC]

Hi Gail, 

I think you may have posted your post as a new thread by accident. Not to worry though, I have now moved it to the Booked a place on the Younger Womens Together event thread 🙂 

Thanks, 

Lizzy 

[GM71]

[Angela1979]

Thank you I will join it now x,

[Pamsie25]

Not long now until we all meet up yipeeee looking forward to leaving my wee minions behind

[LillikaNic]

Hi All I'm Nicola from Penicuik. I'm now wondering whether Thursday might be a good idea too 🤔 Would certainly make Friday morning with the kids less stressful...

I'm a YBCN girl too looking forward to putting faces to names and meeting new friends too.

Angela, YBCN is Younger Breast Cancer Network UK on FB. https://m.facebook.com/YoungerBreastCancerNetwork/

[jencath1977]

I had a quick look at what it was going to cost me in trains and taxi's to the event and in the end I thought stuff it - I will book the hotel so I have!  I wont be arriving until about 9 or 10 o clock on Thursday night but I will be there.  So if anyone is meeting for drinks etc I will be there at some point xx

[AllyMcK]

Hi everyone,

I'm Allison from Glasgow.

I've just signed up to this website (and still finding my way around).

I've booked to stay at the hotel on the Thursday night.

Just wondering if some of you have arranged to meet in the hotel for dinner or drinks on the Thursday, if so, i'd like to tag along.

[Angela1979]

Hi everyone, I am Angela from Hamilton, just looking through some of your posts and thinking of coming the Thursday night as would make things a lot easier. Only a couple of weeks post mastectomy so relying on lifts etc. Don't want to miss anything early Friday morning. Like most of you feeling a bit anxious about not knowing anyone, I am quite quiet and shy but at the same time looking forward to it xx

[cmcadam1982]

I'm not actually sure what to take with me. I am looking forward to the peace away from my 2 little girls lol even though this will be the longest I've not been with them xx

[Moziec]

Thanks ladies, not sure how I missed that...will blame it on chemo brain (as I do most things!) 💉 😂 xxx

[Kirstyann80]

Yeah I remember seeing the schedule for weekend and sure it was 4 or 4.30 it finished Sat.:)

[jencath1977]

Hi Maria. I seem to recall seeing something which said it finished about 4pm on Saturday? X

[Moziec]

Hey ladies, Maria here. Looking forward to next weekend and some good chat with you all.

I live in Edinburgh so a local one for me. Does anyone know what time it's likely to finish Saturday? I've just realised it's an injection day..!

[Kerry87]

Hi everyone. I'm Kerry from Helensburgh, Dunbartonshire. Looking forward to meeting you all next weekend 😊 xxx
