    Default Close Encounters of the Weggie Kind!!

    My personal experience tells me that meeting up with fellow 'Weggies' gives me a real buzz and is a very positive and rewarding experience. Reading Michelle's post about trying to set up closer links with friends in Australia set me thinking. Perhaps we could post a photo of Weggie encounters just to 'light the fire'.
    I was very fortunate to meet up with the "Big Kahoona", yes our leader Andrew when he was in London recently. The 5 hours we spent over coffee and in a Pub just flew by. I think you can tell from the photo that we had a good time, so take the bull by the horns and get out there and meet a fellow Weggie!!! (dont forget your camera)

    Thanks for thinking of us Geoff and what a wonderful idea.

    I'm not really a meet and greet type of person and tend to favour being in the background, but you are right - take the bull by the horns.


    You two look like you have been best mates forever

    I was a kinda chat online but hang back in real life kinda girl until I met Geoff at Adds! Had this friendly looking stranger come and sit next to me in the waiting room and I was thinking oh no, not another weirdo until he introduced himself. Very life affirming to met a Weggie in real life, I highly recommend it!

    You guys slay me you really do!! First and formost it was a total thrill for me to meet one of the most informative and supportive members of this Forum in her wonderful home town. I have always respected Michelle's contributions and meeting her "in the flesh" so to speak, confirmed my opinion of her as a beautiful soul. Almost 3 hours flew by as we chatted and put the world to rights without losing a smile on our faces. A day I will treasure for a very long time
