    Hi Everyone
    I am new to the forum but have been a member of the Cross Stitch Guild for a little while now. I may have already registered but if so I forgot my details must be my age. So if I did some people may know me as Bea.Stitching others as Barbara in France, so I am going with that one on this forum. Anyway just wanted to say Hi to you All.
    Best wishes

    Morning Monica

    I know what you mean I am not very good on it either. Monica is my sisters' name what a small world.
    Best wishes

    I will be off to France end of April, have a friend, Angela, living near Angouleme. Instead of flying I (and friend Sonia) are taking Eurostar and TGV, make a change

    Hi Monica

    Don't know if you have been before but it is a very nice place and lovely area. I have a couple of friends who live over that side. I live in the South East on the border with Geneva, my husband works in the city, and lived in Geneva for the first year then bought our current home just over the border. We have been here 11 years now time has really flown. I hope you have a lovely time.
    Best wishes

    Hello Barbara
    Yes have been a few times, love it there. Also have been to Loire Valley and Brittany and several times to Le Mans Classic in our Classic MGBGT, 1973. Mostly when my husband was alive but two years ago my eldest daughter Annemarie came with me in convoy with some other cars. I love driving in France, so much better than here. I'm off on Jane's Swindon weekend tomorrow.

    Hi Monica
    Sorry to hear about your husband but glad you are still getting out and about. We love Brittany and going there soon can't wait. Then back a couple of days then off to the UK to the Stitch and Craft Show really looking forward to that. By the time you read this you will be back so hope you had a really wonderful time. Would love to hear all about it.

    Hope to make it to Stitch and Craft, after lunching at Harrods the day before to celebrate Ruth's birthday, If you see a demented woman with blond hair rushing around like a loony, wearing a blue fleece, it will probably be me. Best wishes.

    Welcome Lisa!

    You've come to the right place for cross-stitch-mad people (and, some would say, mad people - but not me).

    Welcome Lisa, I totally agree with Christine, who isn't mad at all, that this is the best place to meet up with cross stitch mad people. I went to Swindon yesterday, and got cheered up by meeting lots of people who I have only have met through going to cross stitch lessons and holidays. Enjoy yourself and don't hesitate to put your two pennorth in on the forum. The more the merrier.

    Welcome Lisa. I am not new to the CSG but I am to Forum. I was at Swindon at the weekend, had a great time. Lots of stitching, talking and laughing, excellent food. The chef really put himself out for a gluten free lady. Will not be at Olympia this year, hope everyone who goes has a good time and gets everything they want
