Hi Everyone Now that I have struggled online (prior to nipping out for a spot of retail therapy) I'd like to add my voice to Barbara's to say I really enjoyed our evening at the Boat House and thanks to Dorothy. Looking forward to the next Occasion. Thank you, Carol, if you are doing the booking. Zohra |

Sorry I missed the August ESC, hope you all enjoyed it. Well gurls after nearly three months of hell and horror. We were duly greeted with a little baby granddaughter yesterday. 6lbs 11oz, she is tiny, they have called her Samantha. She latched on very easily first time, around 5pm, we were told she might not feed for quite a few days until she had some morphine! They are going to monitor the baby to see how much morphine is in her system. The consultant agreed to do the caesarean 8 days earlier than they were going to, as daughter had come off the morphine about 4 weeks ago, but the pain was really terrible, which then started to affect her mentally and emotionally. We will not know how daughter will be until the spinal block wears off. SIL is off work from Wednesday night until 15 September returns. Hope daughter can now manage with 3 kids and can walk without too much pain by then. Wow big effort!! We have a child free weekend and hopefully next week too. I am going to hairdresser 11.30 today but could not get a massage, but have managed to get one next Friday for an hour, bliss We have booked our holiday - 19 September for 2 weeks to Bulgaria (Sunny Beach), has anyone been there? Had good and bad reviews. ![]() Well off to hairdresser now. Hope to catch up with you at next ESC, might be October now as I think we might be away for September meet. H x |

As I said on the other thread LC - congratulations to you both; I'm sure Samantha is absolutely beautiful and you all must be so relieved that your daughter has come through okay. Have a good holiday; it sounds as though you deserve it!!

Hi ESC Ladies, Just a note to say thanks to Dorothy for arranging our meal at the Boathouse - I too had a really lovely meal and enjoyed our evening. I look forward to our next gathering at the Tapas restaurant. Take care. |
||||||||
|

|||||||
|
Congratulations on your new granddaughter Helen. And have a wonderful holiday - it sounds as it you need one! Karen |

Fantastic news, Helen. What a relief! Really enjoyed our last night out, everyone, and looking forward to the next. ![]() Helen |

Well Congradulations...Samantha is such a lovely name...no doubt Grandma will spoil her!!! Glad to hear your back with us...enjoy your holiday and child free weekends you sure do deserve them...hope your daughter is keeping well too! Barbara |

Congratulations Helen, hope all continue to do well and you enjoy your well-deserved holiday. Treetops, HOW does one get onto the "other thread"? I'm trying to persuade someone to go and see "The Duchess" with me. I know I say Keira Knightley irritates me (and she's rather thin for the role) but it's a very interesting story and Bess Foster was a great character. Any takers? Zohra |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
Hi Zohra I'd love to see The Duchess but can only do Saturday afternoon. Let me know if that suits. Pat ps. just remembered that I owe you money. Can you please remind me the next time we meet |
||||||||

Hi Ladies There were quite a few of us that fancied seeing Mama Mia (some of us for the 2nd time!!!!)...HelenY fancied the sing-a-long I believe!!!! are there any takers for an evening with Pierce and Colin???? , and if so when? I thought we'd probably go to the Omni if it's still on there but am open to suggestions as you all know travelling is not an issue with me
|
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
Hi SBQ, Is Mama Mia still on the cards? Would love to see it! ![]() Hi Speech Fairy, If you search under Librian_Chick for posts less than 1 month old and then click on I am soooooo HAPPY (Friday 5th September) that will bring up the post I mentioned. Treetops
|
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
Hi Treetops...how are you!... Well at the Supper Club there was one or two who hadn't see Mama Mia and a few who wanted to see it again, so if we're going to see it it will have to be soon as it may not be in much longer!!!! So names please

Hi All In case you're wondering if I've fallen off the planet - I haven't, just skipped off to Madrid for a much needed break and sun. Can you confirm who will be coming next Friday. I'll make the booking at Cafe Andaluz on George Street and confirm to them as soon as I know a definite number. Thank you Dorothy for booking the last one, I enjoyed the meal very much despite the fact that eating is not top of my list of things to do at the moment!!! |
||||||||

Hi Springfever, Glad you enjoyed your little break ...pity you have to come back to this horrible weather! ![]() I'll be going to Cafe Andaluz...is it in leith? let me know See you soon

Hi SBQ, Have just seen this thread again - and your message of the 10th. Sorry for not picking it up; don't know how I missed it. Springfever - what is the next date? I seem to be out of touch. Are you talking about Friday 19th or Friday 26th? Let me know!Treetops
|
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
Hello Springfever I shall be going on the 26th September (Andaluz duly noted) and look forward to seeing everybody. Thank you for doing the booking. Zohra |
||||||||

|||||||

Hi Treetops We're going on the 26th...hope to see you there |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||

Hi All I'm not able to make it on Friday but hope you have a lovely meal and the rain stops for a few hours!!! Bye for now Dorothy

Hi Springfever, Would love to come to Cafe Andaluz next Friday so please count me in. Sorry for not being in touch but have been off sick for a while and due to a broken computer I have been unable to keep in touch. Bought a new laptop today so up and running again. See you all soon. Elizabeth |

Hmmm! There I was trying to PM everyone but my new super duper laptop had other ideas! So just to confirm, Friday 26th at 7.30pm supper club meet will be at Cafe Andaluz on George Street (just around the corner from Frederick Street). See you all there - I hope. Carole |

Thanks for the info; see you all there!

I thought it had gone really quiet...but it was just me mis-threaded! Belatedly - Thank you for the Boat House Dorothy, and congratulations on your daughter's safe delivery Helen. Hope everything is now returning to normal. My youngest daughter is just back from Sunny Beach - hope you find the r and r you must need. Sorry, won't now be able to make it on Friday. The diary was clear but I've been asked to display my jewellery for a fashion show. Not sure which part of my brain was not functioning when the "yes" word came out as I'm already working all day at a function. Really sorry I'll miss you this month ladies. Lesley |

Did you all see the full-page article on the Andaluz in yesterday's Scotland on Sunday mag? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
No. Good report? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
No Treetops...What did it say??? I know that Springfever has been and said she enjoyed it. |
||||||||
|
|

Thanks Carole Looking forward to 26th. Yes, Treetops, I did see the article. It whetted my interest. I reckon we should do some restaurant reviewing for the papers - we'd be less pretentious than most. See you all soon. Zohra |
