Grey nomads I have met.


Over the last couple of years I have written down on these two bits of paper any nomads I have met. Sometimes I forget for a while then have to go back over the list so there may be some I've missed.

Sheba is underlined as I haven't met her yet but determined to meet soon. You can see how long ago I wrote Shebas name as its at the top of the page on the first bit of paper.

Edit: RockyLizard (John)

        Spida



That was the week I was so sick out at Greens Lake, must have missed more.

Goodonya HW! One of the best aspects of this forum is when people become real instead of words on your computer. Even better, they become friends too! One of our better days was when we met you!

I'm going to feel terrible if I find I have left someone out John. Nomads will be scanning the list to see if their name is on there.

I have a feeling she was heading to Darwin in convoy with some friends. Not sure when but it must have been about now as she hasn't been on for a while.

In our 2 years on the road we met very few from this group so possibly one day you may be passing through Grafton and choose to honor us with a visit so we may have our name join the many who have a privileged place on your list. clap.gif

Cheers

Jon

 Yes Spida., I found that out when I checked for Rockylizard, and added you in the Edit with him. That was at the time when I was so sick at Greens and really couldn't think later as I made the list. I am so sorry I missed you. Hope I haven't missed anyone else.

 Jon, theres very few I've been to their house to meet up with them. Its mostly been out on the road somewhere, or at general meets. I think I have just been lucky to have been in the right place at the right time.

Marj - I am privileged to be on your list, and to count you as a good friend. I might just sit down and write a list of the GN's I have met - not as impressive as yours I am sure.
take care.

Sorry I missed you wombat. lol. Maybe its because we haven 't met in person.

Jules. Its quite interesting to make up a list. You will be surprised just how many you have met. I don't always add the name at the time but sometimes months later think its about time I updated the list. That makes it harder to think back.
Looking at that list, very untidy isn't it. Will make up a new tidy one some day.

I'm very happy to be on your list too Marj. Like a lot on here, I felt like I already knew you before we even met. smile 

I've met quite a few now too, so must make a list. My problem is, once I've met them and know their 'real' names, I forget their nom de plume. Eg: I met Tess in Bendigo and have no idea now what hers is. (I know someone will remind me.)

Hylda&John, I can't remember if I commented before, but I passed through Grafton on my way home in early December. I was quite ill, so please forgive me forgetting all about you. I ended up spending a couple of days at Iluka.

What you can do when you have plenty of time, is go through the List of Users and write down the ones you have met as you scroll through the lists.
Tess is EvieandRhys.I've spelt it wrong I think.

Thanks for the thought Beth. It is much prettier at Iluka than here anyway. Hope all is ok, health wise, now.

Cheers
