Friday morning - I am not bored of working on my own ...

[enjoy]

... sitting here all alone with my laptop all day.

The work needs to be done, but it could be done with company.

Anybody out there who would like to meet up to work in a cafe with wifi

and a big table over a good cup of coffee?!

Hello!

I'm starting a new job working 2 or 3 days from home in a couple of weeks and am worried I will miss being in a big office.

Would love to do a working from home lunch or coffee one day.

Hiya,

I also work mainly from home and it'd be nice to meet up locally to co-work.

If you fancied travelling a bit further (or are in town anyway), it's worth checking out this co-working group: http://www.meetup.com/kindredhqcoworking/ - they are a really friendly bunch and again it means you get out of the house...I've been going on&off for over a year and got so see some cool co-working spaces this way :)

Yes! I work mon, tues and thurs, and get lonely too. I'd be happy to try a working together day. Sx

[enjoy]

Hi,

thanks to everyone who replied.

I liked the idea of meet-up workspaces, but I can't see myself travelling into town.

How about a local meeting in one of the cafes in the area. Trouble is, I don't know where to go.

Big tables, wifi, not too many kids ...

Suggestions?

We could try next week, maybe Tuesday morning. Shall we?

[lorraineliyanage]

Sounds good - I'm up for this as I work from home too and hardly see anyone in the daytime. If you make it a different day (Weds - Sat) then I'm sure my partner will be happy to host at his cafe, Captured on the Rye on Pellatt Road, near The Mag pub. They aren't open on Tuesdays, though.

The Ivy House have started doing this on a Friday from 1.00 - 3.00pm.

I would be interested, being in interiors mean cafes wont work excepton admin days will check out Ivey house. Lorraine would you let me know if Anything happens at captured in the rye please. Thanks Lori

[enjoy]

Hi there,

I'd love the idea of the 'captured on the rye', doesn't need to be a tuesday though.

Thursday or friday?! Keep me updated.

[lorraineliyanage]

Shall we set something up next week, I was thinking Weds to avoid clashing with the Ivy House but Friday is an option too. The shop has Wi-Fi, table space, really good coffee and cake :)

I don't drive so the Ivy House is a bit far although I'd be keen to check it out some time.

[enjoy]

Hi lorraineliyanage,

I am all up for Wednesday.

Will you post a time?

Hopefully some people will join.

Looking forward to it!

[lorraineliyanage]

How about 11.30am on Wednesday?

[enjoy]

Brilliant, will be there with my laptop and stuff.

See you there!

Come on people - leave the house and enjoy

some companie whilst working!

[verds]

Anyone know if Captured On The Rye is open on Monday mornings? Good to hear they welcome working lurkers...

[lorraineliyanage]

Just open Weds to Sat at the moment.

[mima08]

Hi - sorry, I cannot make that Wed but am very interested in trying out both, captured on the rye and the Ivyhouse ( haven't been to either, it'll give me a good excuse to explore...). Unfortunately can never do Fridays (working only Mon-Thurs) - Does anyone know if Fri is the only option on the Ivyhouse?

[enjoy]

Argg, l can't do Wed!

Could we do thursday or friday instead?

[lorraineliyanage]

Friday's good - 1.30ish onwards?

[enjoy]

Yep, brilliant.

I am in!

[lorraineliyanage]

Could we make this earlier in the day, a pre-lunch thing perhaps?

[enjoy]

Not before eleven for me.

But fine with that.

[lorraineliyanage]

Eleven it is - just had a job come up for the afternoon although it's not confirmed yet!

[enjoy]

Looking forward to go to work tomorrow morning at 11.

See you.

Anybody who wants to join us is welcome.

[lorraineliyanage]

Looking forward to this today at 11am!

[canela]

hope this goes well - I'm in for future weeks so please keep us posted!
