Re: who's planning on emigrating and from the Glasgow area?
So there are quite a few then! I think we could organise a wee get-together? I'm presuming the centre of town would be easiest, what about a weekend afternoon or something? I was thinking meeting for coffee would be easier because we're going to want to have a group conversation, not just shouting in the ear of the person next to you!
Any thoughts?

Hi,
Reading linsypinsy's comment about 'Clatty Pats' made me laugh.
Used to go there years ago when had my first flat in the west end.

The Savoy on Sauchiehall Street?? I work near there; one of my co-workers likes to reminisce about "Grab-a-Granny" nights he's had there...

How many people would like to have a wee meet up? I couldn't do Sunday 6th but could probably manage Sat 5th? Or the weekend after?

Do you all want to meet centrally or would somewhere like The Fort be easier?

Thinking of places, Princes Square is nice but busy, we could meet in the basement of waterstones in Sauchiehall Street. big comfy sofas and large coffees!
Am looking forward to it and preparing a list of things to ask everyone

Hi all!
I'm currently packing up the flat in Glasgow West End in preparation for Toronto in 5 weeks!
Hubbie leaves in 9 days, his new employers were adamant that he comes NOW!!!!
I'm up for the 5th in Glasgow, I'll be very lonely and sad as he will be gone. We landed in December 10 with the plan to move out late 2011, but darn hubby went and got himself a job on the spot, so that was that
