So a diabetic meet up will take place in Stratford on the 29th @Juicyj @covknit and myself should all be in attendance.

Location TBC - anyone know it who can suggest? or my throw in is the theater outside (weather dependent)
 
All good here - we could do coffee house or river let's see how the weather is ? I can wear my bright blue JDRF t-shirt !! (will also have my daughter in tow).
 
In a few weeks we could do this https://www.rsc.org.uk/events/the-dell but at the time of writing the programme does not seem to be advertised. What do people want to do? Rampage around the town, shop, watch the river go by (gardens at the back of the theatre/otherside of river by car parkor play area /greenway, visit "attractions" can be expensive, arrive by train (the station is a little way out of town but we could meet the train and meander together) or just meet at the bridge (more for a sunny day). The last time we were there we went to the Slaughterhouse museum. There are other more well known historic venues.

I've a feeling I may be going to see Ed sheeran that evening so I wont be staying all day. Does anyone mind dogs? I would quite like to bring Cooper :D

Had a bit of a brainwave as to a handy meeting place for car and bus users. http://www.warwickshire.gov.uk/stratfordparkandride
Have to admit I have not used it myself so no questions please but theoretically it seems workable enough. If it helps I am on for checking it out in practice as I may be the closest at 20 miles away.

I used it a couple of years back with my grandparents. Seems reasonable it drops at the top of town or on the highstreet.

Heya that's a shame - I was just looking at the weather thinking if it would be inside or outside, no worries, can we re-schedule ? I am doing a charity walk for JDRF over the next month so look at June 10th ? :)

June 10 good for me. Sorry about the last minute but I am desperate to get my leg fixed and this cancellation is the first response received since the GP promised me a scan a month ago. Only ultrasound and I was expecting CT but first step towards being able to walk properly again. Hope all is well with Cooper.
