Would anyone come to the Isle of Wight for a meet? Margaret and I were on about it the other day. I thought Ryde would be a good place because of the hovercraft and the fastcat. Sometime after christmas to chase away the winter blues? |

Hi Louise, it would depend when. I have quite a busy January but I would be interested as I could stay with my cousin in Brading Vivienne |

That would be good Vivienne. I'll have another chat with Margaret and we'll see when the consensus would like to come. |

I'll ask the girls to double up in their bedroom Anne. Not sure what to do if you suddenly get a man though. We've only got single beds. |

Keith, Was your distant Grandmother an Urry, White, Barton or Dyer? Ok that's a bit personal. :) I'd love to join you Louise, but I doubt I could get away. Sorry. |

Well I'm certainly interested! Could be the ideal opportunity to meet my 2nd cousin Pauline (discovered through GR!) especially as her Mum lives on the IOW! |

A few of us did have an I.o.W. meet in September 2004. It was great to see people from far and wide, not just those from the South. I combined it with a stay in Newport to do a bit of researching. Another chance to meet might be good but early darkness in January might deter some if they have long journeys. If it was a Saturday they could stay the night on the Island though. |

I visit the Isle of Wight a couple of times a year but mostly during school holidays. I am always there for 2 weeks in the summer hols. I will watch this space and see what dates you come up with!! Tammy |

I daresay I could be persuaded to make an appearance. Ryde is a better choice than Newport because there is no need to travel once on the Island. |
