Accy web meets and school 1/2 term (October)
 

Does anyone have any idea which weekend the Accrington district schools will be having their half-term break in October ? and does it coincide with the Accy web meet up, OK reason for question .....a couple of your off-shore members ( Junetta in Tenerife, and myself in California) would like to meet up again after nearly 40 years , and we thought an Accy web meet would be the ideal place (since this is where we tracked each other down) Junetta's provisional plans include being in Ossy for her nephews 1/2 term in October and my schedule for an October trip to Germany is flexible enough to fit a long weekend side trip in to my old home town . We would both love to meet up again and also with the folks we have come to know on-line over the past couple of years,
note, the weekend will probably include a pub crawl/pilgramage of various spots including Holland st. Newark st. Bridge Inn, Hope and Anchor ,Oak Tree ? on B,Burn rd. near Church border, Derby, Blue Dahlia cafe, and whatever the Pickwick is these days , site of the old Jazz club (where I first met Junetta, she copped off with my mate and i got her friend) and other spots around town .
thx steeljack

Half term is usually the last week in October, or begining of November, and the meets are usually the last Saturday of the month, so the chances are good.:)

Junetta thinks the 1/2 term is in the middle of the month , thats why I asked if anyone had definate dates for it , were just trying to juggle schedules . Does the Hyndburn School District have a website showing such information ?
Thx

They do a good range of cough medicines and indigestion remedies. It's a Boots Chemist nowadays.

The october meet should be on sat the 27/10/07 if this helps its the last sat in the month

Re: Accy web meets and school 1/2 term (October)
 

LOL well i guess Junetta can dig out her gymslip ( and navy blue knickers with the pocket for the dinner money) and I can find my Norden school cap and go in and buy "tincture of opium" cough medicine, no questions asked at 8.30 in the morning and pretend we are on the way to skool ............. we/I just did a different chemists every day
(and we think kids are bad these days )

what a buggar, we go to spain oct 15th till nov 8th, would love to have seen you both. would even have changed me dates, but having work done week before we go out, so thats knackered that! anyway you will have a great time at the meet,thats a knocking bet.

Re: Accy web meets and school 1/2 term (October)
 

I seem to remember that the October meet a couple of years ago fell on the last Saturday in the month. My flight home was the day before.

John and I were sort of wondering, as we chatted last night, if you could make an exception and have the meet the week before.

Rindy, please bring this up at some point........an extraordinary members meeting during June would be good! I know I can rely on you mate xx

Re: Accy web meets and school 1/2 term (October)
 

June I'm sure all the Accy Webbers would love to meet you both if we can. Meets are really Mick's domain, now that Mez has retired, unless she can be coaxed back out of retirement (:rolleyes:).

I have no sway over this, but once you know the dates for sure, let Mick know, and if things can be arranged, I'm sure they will.

If all else fails we'll organise an unoffical mini-meet, the week before, for you both.:D
