   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.

Hello!

Ok so the plan is a child free yummy dinner. Small babies who can't be left are of course allowed.

Dates? Am assuming Fri/Sat nights are going to be best so

4th, 5th, 11th, 12th 18th or 19th December. Start telling us what you can't do and we can narrow it down!

Venues? I'd suggest the Gourmet Spot (because I love it) but dh might kill me as we are planning a visit to celebrate a sleeping dd (whenever that happens hmm) Where is good? Doesn't have to be an overtly Christmassy meal does it? Just something nice, fun as a crowd and a break from "family friendly" aka pizza and pasta.

And of course a sign up list!

Indith

Please point eveyone you see over here, lets try to gather the troups!

Arghhh just lost my post!

Child free dinner sounds great, I don't think we have anything booked in the diary but will need to check with DH which weekends we have DSS - would rather it is one of these weekends on the Saturday, as I know we will definitely be at home.

Is it girls only? Because DH won't be able to come as he'll have to look after DS & DSS.

I was going with girls only BT, I'd have to pay for a babysitter otherwise!

I've realised I can't do the 12th as I'm taking the Rainbows to the panto <shudder> and if you want a Saturday BT then that leaves

5th or 19th

Christmas booze meet up sounds good. I think the 5th would be better for me but I may be able to strong arm DP into covering other dates.

good luck for the next few weeks Lissy.

Ok so 5th? Where?

If you see anyone else around then stalk them until they come over here! I'm off down to Bristol tonight so I shall not be bumping much at the weekend.

Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face, , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin, , type [grin] or :o
For a wink, , type [wink]
For a shocked face, , type [shock]
For a sceptical face, , type [hmm]
For a confused face, , type [confused]
For an embarrassed face, , type [blush]
For an angry face, , type [angry]
For a sad face, , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face, , type [envy]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
