HappyMaz Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I quite fancy Gail Ryder Richardson's seminar about making spaces for two year olds. Oh and Liz Bayram's one straight after about school readiness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sn0wdr0p Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Gutted. Post op complications mean that I will not be well enough to go. Please please go to Coventry in September. I am sure that there must be many people who cannot get to London. Come on Midlands and The North members speak up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 Sorry to hear that Snowdrop. We'll have to think about Coventry - these events take a lot of organising (and are brain numbingly expensive for a small organisation like ours...). But yes it would be good to see some of our friends up there as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredbear Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Wishing you a speedy recovery snowdrop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sn0wdr0p Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Thanks Fredbear, two steps forward one step back so getting there slowly. I was looking forward to putting faces to names. I'm sure many of us are so different in person to how we imagined each other. Shame you didn't get to see this tall slim beautiful stylish and confident woman - OK - in my dreams 5' 2" and inclined to put on weight with my prolonged stay at home with the biscuit tin for company. Have a super time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fredbear Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Big thank you to Steve, Matt and Sue on the Expo stand today. It was lovely to meet with you all and made my administrator and myself feel very welcome. I'm sure your all now in need of a huge rest and a long glass of something. Nice to finally meet Happy Maz and Hali too, Kind regards Fx 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 It was lovely to meet you too, Fredbear. I had forgotten all about the storyphones - I was genuinely worried when you turned to your admin lady and said 'this is the lady who...'. I said it so many times today, but when you meet Helen, Steve and Sue (and Matt - hello Matt!) you can see why the Forum is such a lovely place. This feeling of belonging that we all have comes directly from them, and it was very evident on the Stand today: thanks to everyone who literally welcomed us with open arms. It was never more evident than when the little boy reached up and held onto Steve's hand whilst he was talking to their parents about Tapestry. I think that was the highlight of my day. Oh, and also - "are you the eye?". 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredbear Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Ha ha HappyMaz, no it was a compliment in saying how kind you and the forum folk are. Best wishes Fx 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hali Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Was a lovely day - and so nice to meet people after 12 years on the forum - well done Steve, Helen, Sue and Mat for your stand looked fab, and lovely to meet you Fredbear and Catma xxxxxxxxx Thank you also FSF for my thermos mug (wonder how red wine fairs in there :lol: :lol: :lol: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted March 29, 2014 Author Share Posted March 29, 2014 Hi all - It was great to see all of you, and even better that some of you could use the FSF area to meet each other for the first time! We've just got back - a little shell-shocked from two days of talking non-stop, but exhilarated by the experience too. That little boy was so lovely Maz - all he wanted to tell me about was the fire engine in the stand behind us. Which was far more interesting than any talk about Tapestry... Once again, great to see you all and thanks so much for coming to see us. Now, I fear I need to put my feet up - I believe a take-away curry might shortly be arriving! :rolleyes: 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I should think you have really, really earned that take away curry - enjoy! get your slippers on, something to rest your feet on, and a glass of something nice - you really deserve it. The stand looked really good and you had a brilliant close to the registration desks. It was great to met you and thank you so much Helen for all the time you gave me answering my questions. Sorry I didn't get to meet you Thumper, as we were obviously both there on Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
