When organising a Mumsnet meet up you should take the same basic precautions you would when meeting anyone from the internet - make sure you meet in a public place and that others know where you are going.

title says it all really, anyone up for it? perhaps without children this time, though whatever works best for the majority is fine by me.

Any news on the slingmeet?

Sagan - I might take you up on the offer of the maclaren testdrive - mainly to find out if it fits in the tiny car. I worry that it might not, as even quite small strollers seem to be too long for the width of the boot when they're folded. The loola does fit in there but it's a bit of a bugger to push and awful up and down steps so I end up not wanting to take it anywhere.

Choices, choices... smile

Hello ladies. Alas I was not able to drive last week (had not yet been given the go-ahead post section by my GP) but hoping to make our next slingmeet. Mine's a Freedom sling- Murron's Pouch to be precise, and I love it- totally hands free except if I want to kiss a little face...

Oh you're nowhere near as bad as me grin

We have a Maclaren you're more than welcome to borrow for a weekend to try if you like? And a wrap wink

It's worth trying to get over to Jackanory in St Thomas if you can, she has lots of cheap Maclarens and my wrap came from there too, of all places.

Good to see you grin

I'd be up for a slingmeet although I'm almost certainly going to be a purchase free zone (trying to convince myself here!).

Although I am sort of thinking about trading in the loola and getting something else, maybe a maclaren but maybe a sling - I might as well accept I am an addict wink

Tis a sheep in french clothing here wink

Drowning, we should try and make a slingmeet on another day so you can come along. I am loving my wrap. I have been quite drunk fairly recently in the Phoenix though so maybe somewhere else blush

Glad to see this thread is still going, I had given up on it a bit and forgotten to look out for any updates smile

How is everyone?

I hope the slingmeet went well, not sure how you could manage to carry a baby as well as 9 slings!

Not going to make exeter today, but hope you have a nice time.

Yep, that and the shopping trolley pretty much give me away!

Loopy - that sounds nice I may well see you there. I shall look out for the pile of slings with some hands sticking out shall I?
