Open Meeting : Pinning Open to all members and family and friends<br></div><div style='font-size:16px';><strong>Chris</strong> :  My brother in law was outside for 30 mins. I just wanted to check if it is likely to be on again weekly? He lives in knightswood and the clydebank, Partick, and Maryhill groups would be nearest. He has never attended a group before and is quite nervous about going<br></div><div style='font-size:16px';><strong>Arthur M.</strong> :  It is an open meeting, so a friend or family membere can attend too. To give a bit of moral support, that's if they,re ok with that.<br></div><div style='font-size:16px';><strong>Chris</strong> :  He lives with my mother in law and Dumbarton is a bit far for him. Is the Partick group well attended? He is taking some time off tomorrow from work to attend.<br></div><div style='font-size:16px';><strong>Arthur M.</strong> :  I can only apologise about last nights outcome. I see the Partick meeting is based on the 12 Steps of recovery. Personally, I would recommend he goes to one of the other meeting. Being it's first meeting, but if he wants to go, I can get a local member to contact him.<br></div><div style='font-size:16px';><strong>Arthur M.</strong> :  Sorry Chris, I was looking at something else. The Partick meeting would be ideal, 1:00pm to 3:00pm St Peter’s Catholic Church, 45 Hyndland Street, Glasgow, G11 5PS Gamblers Anonymous Meeting Only for people who have a gambling problem. Enter at Chancellor St. No Disabled Access to Meeting.<br></div><div style='font-size:16px';><strong>Arthur M.</strong> :  What's his first name Chris, if it's ok for you to pass his number on. I will get a Partick member contact him.<br></div><div style='font-size:16px';><strong>Arthur M.</strong> :  Hello Chris, are you still there.<br></div><br>== This Chat Has Been Closed ==<br>Press "Exit Chat" to return to homepage.
