On Saturday, 22nd May 2010, the UK Group held a meet-up at the Tattershall Castle at the Victoria Embankment in London where they had good food, good drinks, and great company. Jan (snoopy), who organized this gathering tells us about their expirience:
Hi All,
We had a great day (and night!) out. The weather was great so we met on the top deck outside in the sunshine and enjoyed a chat and a few drinks. The boat was busy but that didn't stop us all enjoying ourselves or talking openly about our conditions, experiences and things that work for each of us in our diet and with supplements etc and swopping tips....thanks so much for joining us-- you were like a ray of sunshine and gave me a real boost.There was a small group of us-- 8 in total who came and went during the meet up. We started at 1pm and the last ones standing left about 10pm ( I think I had slight sun stroke as I was bit rough the next day!) We started on the top deck and had some food etc and then had to go downstairs under the cover of shade and to cool off-- the sun was so strong that some of us got a bit sunburnt-- can you believe that in the UK! We had no adverse reactions from anyone else and just enjoyed each others company.
One of our members gave out some of the probiotic samples Maria kindly sent over for us from the Nashville meet up. We'll all be trying those out and giving feedback on how we find them. This is the the 6th time I've attended an organised meet up and not been able to detect any odour at all from anyone-- still can't really understand why that happens but can honestly say it does.
Thanks to everyone who came along for making the day enjoyable. It was lovely to have two new members attending. Natalia -- thanks so much for joining us-- you were like a ray of sunshine and gave me a real boost. Hope to see you all again in September-- everyone is welcome and hope more new members can join us.
Cheers, Jan x
