NYC GTG? (nth try)

[Harriet]

Are we ever going to do this?

 

[Madam Bijoux]

I certainly hope so, but we have to watch the weather at this time of the year.

Yes, we''re going to do this. I''m sorry you had to start this thread again Harriet. How about if we schedule it far enough down the road for people to make plans to come, and also we do have to consider what Madam B mentioned. The weather here is not so dependable in New York in January or February. How about March 28th? The Macy''s flower show opens that day. It would be a nice thing to see before we stop and eat.

If that''s too far down the road, we could plan something for next month. What do you think?

 

[Harriet]

Wait, do you live in the city? If so, why haven''t we met?

LOL Harriet! because I''ve never come to a GTG before. No I''m not a city girl anymore. I used to live on the harbor in Bay Ridge, but now I''m a Long Islander. I''m not far away. I always drive in.

 

[Harriet]

That''s because there hasn''t been a GTG (for as long as I''ve been on PS, at least). We really should make this one work.

There''s probably been at least one (I would think) in the five years I''ve been a PSer, but I never used to read anything except SMTR, so I wouldn''t know! I never made it over to the Hangout.

I agree, let''s do our best to make this one work. It would help a lot if some of us New Yorkers aaahhemmmm!!! would respond! Helloooooooooooo!!!!!!!

Bringing this back to the top.

 

[Harriet]

Come on people! Don't you just love digging around 47th street?

Madam B, gemgirl,
Maybe it'll just be the three of us. We could still have a good time.

 

[777_LDY]

I''m not in NY but I am in CT and I have been trying to get into the city for ages.

My life is sort of a whirlwind right now so don''t plan anything around me, but I will keep updated of what you plan and if it happens to work out I would love to join in. I would just have to let you know at the very last minute...

oh and Gucci! It''s too close to 47th St. to not pay a little visit . I haven''t been to that Gucci in a long LONG time.
I''m sure elle will come. We have quite a few New Yorkers on PS. I don''t want to start naming people, hopefully they''ll just chime in.

 

[Harriet]

Have you been to the new Gucci?

Uh-oh, where''s the "new" Gucci? Do you mean the one on Madison all the way uptown around 70th St, or so? If so, I''ve been to that one. It was very close, dangerously close, to one of my doctor''s offices.

 

[Clairitek]

Id be interested in this if its a weekend day, either one will do. The Macy''s flower show sounds like a great idea!

In the Trump building on 5th, near Tiffany''s.

 

[Brown.Eyed.Girl]

Can we do this again during the summer?? I wish I was in NY now!

 

[elle_chris]

I''m in!

 

[CDNinNYC]

Count me in too!

 

[chiapet]

Me too! I live very close to Tiffany''s AND Gucci! I have to avoid walking down 5th avenue or else I''d be in serious credit card debt

 

[gemgirl]

I guess a lot of things have changed since I worked in the city. It''e been a while. I used to like the original Gucci store. Boohoo.....

Our list is coming together! So far we have Harriet, elle, Madam B, gemgirl, maybe 777s, Clairitek, CDNinNYC, and chiapet. There are still people who have to respond yet.

Brown.Eyed.Girl I don''t see why not! Let''s get this one off the ground, then we''ll plan to get together again in the future.

OK, a day.... a Saturday, yes? What date? Suggestions?

 

[jcrow]

hubs and i may be heading to nyc in feb and in may... i''d love to meet you guys!

 

[gemgirl]

Bump!

 

[MonkeyPie]

I want a global GTG

I''ll rent a house even!

I really want to go to NYC. Maaaaybe I can convince my husband to go during a GTG time

 

[emeraldlover1]

I'm in but I am traveling every one to two weeks every month till May. Right now I will not be here the weekend of March 6 or Feb 13th or 20th. Grr...my job should never get in the way of PS.

BTW...I live here so I could even meet for coffee and a walk around the city on any weekend I'm here.

ETA: I can't go shopping till after the wedding. I'm on credit hold with myself and my fiance right now!

 

[emeraldlover1]

Harriet...please bring all your fab rings....I need to meet them.

Harriet and I meet once in a while for a coffee/tea and a walkabout. You should join us. Maybe we can convince Harriet to bring her 'goods'...

 

[Harriet]

In all honesty, we just pig out. Goods?! Isn't my company good enough?

 

[scarlet16]

I''m in too! My schedule can be a little erratic but with enough notice I should be fine!

Ok ladies, now the when and the where. Saturday, Jan. 24th? or the 31st? Or is that too soon?

Long overdue. I''ll be out of town on the 24th, but the 31st works for me.

Scarlet,
It''s been too long!
