Room for a newbie? I'm quite shy but would love to meet fellow T1s, long time T1 and feeling a little lonely.

You would love it, it's really great to meet others in the same boat as you, come along ☺☺☺

Come along - we can reminisce about clinitest and glass syringes (I'm also long term T1)

 

[Minnie45]

Thank you lol Robert glass syringes is a great topic

@ewelina As this is in the type 1 forum, I am assuming only T1s are invited? I have no problem with this, but I am getting a banner across the page inviting me to look at this thread. It happens when I am not logged in too (but says 'guest'). Can you clarify please? If it is T1s only maybe that could be put in the banner? ............................

It's not just for type 1's, anyone is welcome and it's all inclusive. We had a mix last time (although majority were T1)

Yes it was mostly Type 1, I'm interested in talking to others on MDI and pumps, but also happy to meet type 2s (although I already know more type 2s in real life )

As for location I had some research and found this pub
http://www.star-tavern-belgravia.co.uk/
Apparently one of the top historical pub in London. There is a 360 Tour on their website and it looks quite big.http://www.star-tavern-belgravia.co.uk/360-tour

Location:
Our nearest underground stations are Knightsbridge (Piccadilly); Sloane Square (District and Circle) and Victoria (Victoria, District and Circle) which is also a main line.
Pay and Display parking is available on Belgrave Square, which is free in certain areas after 13:30 on a Saturday and for the remainder of the weekend.

What do you think?

 

[lukemini]

Sounds gd to me

Not a problem, looking forward to the meet up, really good to chat with others

 

[Minnie45]

Looking good I'm looking forward to meeting fellow diabetics, particularly type 1s - I don't know any type 1s.

 

[silverbirch]

Sorry can't make it. Too far for me and would be too costly. Sounds like fun though.
