Starting out. by happypat

Starting out.

I didn't intend to post this photo as I have lots to choose from but as my project is diary based I wanted to record an account of what I did on the 18th May 2013.
This is @parkle in the front, @judithg following on & me in the rear in Brick Lane at the beginning of our 365 meet up.
We had a fabulous day, lots of chatting, took loads of photos, such interesting places & beats fields & flowers hands down for me ........I have a bit of city life in my heart really, I think it's reaction from having lived in the middle of a field for years!!!

We had lunch at Verdis & then @sparkle & I consumed a large do-nut filled with custard, @judithg & @sparkle bought bagels & we had a Pimms on the banks of the Thames!!

I think everyone will be queueing to join us next time!!!! LOL !
Lots of photos some of which you will see from all of us over the coming days I expect.

Three good things:
1. Friendship.
2. Virgin Trains.
3. The promise of more to come.
Glad you had such a GOOD day! The promise of more to come sounds great!

@sparkle Good for you...replenishing the energy & those do nuts were very delicious!!
May 19th, 2013  
@sparkle I've been working my way steadily through the one I bought for Adam - and I haven't run anywhere! Fab day - must ditch that pink bag - it's so - pink!

Sounds a fabulous day!
May 19th, 2013  
brilliant Pat - more of those meetups please
May 19th, 2013  
Sounds like a good day out.
May 19th, 2013  
Sounds like a good day out for you all. I know what you mean about enjoying the city. I'm a city kid but now live (well 50% of the time) in rural surroundings. I feel I need the buzz every now and again.
May 19th, 2013  
Sounds like a successful and lovely day out in the big city. Looking forward to your shots of this outing

I see two heads of long blonde hair! Wish you had one with three faces!
May 19th, 2013  
@maggiemae He he maggiemae i wish I was the one with long blonde hair!! @judithg has a photo with us all on!!
May 19th, 2013  
@sparkle @happypat @judithg What a wonderful day you must have had. Since I don't see pictures of the donuts, they must be the no-calorie version. You probably walked it all off anyway!!!
May 19th, 2013  
@bpaquette Well we might have done Barbara but we didn't care...Juliette has certainly got rid of hers by doing a triathlon today!!
May 19th, 2013  
Ha ha! Love it - yes city girl, come and move to Walthamstow!
May 19th, 2013  
What a wonderful day. Lovely commemmorative shot Pat
May 20th, 2013  
Wow, sounds like a great day! Looking forward to the follow-ups :)

It's not where you live, it's how you see it that counts. I do like the city, but my heart is in the countryside.
May 20th, 2013  
Very nice candid shot and a wonderful story. Can't wait to see more photos. It sounds like a fabulous day out, shared with friends with similar interests. What is *Verdis* in addition to being my family name?
May 21st, 2013  
@jimmyveee Ah of course i missed the connection there James .....Verdis is a rather trendy eating place!
May 21st, 2013  
@boxplayer Wouldn't mind at all for a bit Isla!! My ultimate wish would be to spend about a month on my own in London, going to all the galleries, exhibitions & museums I could fit in & have areal explore round the whole city...not very likely to happen though!!
May 21st, 2013  
Neat shot!
May 21st, 2013  
Oh what fun you must have had!
May 22nd, 2013  
Hi...I am a new follower - - I am in my 3rd year as well. I like this shot - - i love getting together with other 365ers, sharing a passion.....so fun!
May 22nd, 2013  
Ahhh, so here is the meet up!!! I know you all had such a wonderful time together!!! Would have loved to have been #4 in your group!! @judithg Judith's backpack seems to be bulging...was she toting the Pimm's?
June 8th, 2013  
@peggysirk Hahaa - if only it had anything so exciting - it had a raincoat and scarf stuffed in the bottom so I could cushion the camera. I've thrown that backpack out - it was fraying inside and kept jamming the zip and anyway I realised how pink it was!! You have to come next time Peggy - it would be in the youth speak of today 'totes amazing'!
