Cheshire Expats

It's been awhile since we have had a Cheshire expat gathering- just wondering if anyone is interested.

Ah well..guess no interest currently.

Would this be open to Greater Manchester Expats?  Would be nice to meet up with other expats!

would be interested, if the time/place is convenient (I'm in Cheshire East).

Of course Heather..anyone would be welcome! I noticed Vadio you aren't far from me..I am in Crewe. We'll give this thread a week or so to see who is interested and then see what works for those interested. I work at a school so weekends or evenings are best for me.

Looks like the three of us at the moment, although if we make plans others may join. What about a Saturday Afternoon Lunch? Also would people be bringing children? (will help in choosing a venue if we know)

Hi, I live in Chester and would enjoy meeting up on the weekend.

As long as I can get a bus at a decent hour to wherever, I'm still interested. Only been driving in the UK since 1993 - and still don't like navigating around unfamiliar places. 

Hi there!  I'm brand new on this forum (I joined a while ago but didn't post anything at that time).  I'm in Manchester city centre.  Would be interested in a get together if it's reachable by a train or bus from Manchester

Ah... just saw this, been wrapped up in getting my next visa (it was a success).  I am still interested in meeting up and second the ability to get there by public transport

Hi all I have been rubbish and haven't been on the forum much lately. I am going to make suggestion then and see how it goes...How about Crewe, which has major train station that can be arrived from anywhere. I admit is my hometown which makes it easy for me but it also means I know it best to organise a gathering.

I would suggest a Saturday Afternoon Lunch- which means people aren't having to travel at night. I am going to suggest 18th July---gives us a few weeks for people to see the thread and make plans. Once we know numbers and who is interested we can talk about more specific options..
So please reply with if 18th of July in Crewe works for you- if you will be attending on your own, with spouse and or with children (will help in venue choice)

I take the bus to Crewe from Congleton, and would be agreeable to a Saturday afternoon lunch anywhere that's bus-station accessible (or train station - I can get off the bus there instead of going into Town Center).

My only caveat is that DH has a minor out-patient/same day procedure scheduled a few days before, so my attendance would be contingent on his situation. Would know in plenty of time to commit or bow out. In any case, would be only me coming.

vadio- I did think a bus from congleton should be easy for you-- glad to hear it is. Once we know who is coming and where from we will choose a location- I am thinking most likely one near the train station will make the most sense, glad that is an easy option for you with the bus. Hopefully DH will be feeling fine but of course will understand if you have to bow out.

Unfortunately we have been invited to London that weekend (the husband's friends want to have a party for his birthday).  However, please keep me posted if the date changes or there is another meet up.

Would this be open to Greater Manchester Expats?  Would be nice to meet up with other expats!

Hi,

Yes, I am American from Washington D.C and have lived in the Manchester area now for 7 years.
