Edinburgh meet up?

[ocelot41]

On a couple of other threads it seems like a few of us have recently moved to Edinburgh and fancied a meet up. Some longstanding Edinburghers also said they would be up for a pint/wine/dram/coffee and cake to say hi.

I said I would be happy to organise it when I got here if no one else wanted to and well, I am here! The bags are (sort of) unpacked, DS has started school, and my new job at uni starts soon.

Please post if you want to come for a meet!

I'd be up for it! I'm in West Lothian but DH works in town and DC go to school there so I'm in Edinburgh quite a bit and can easily get through at other times.

Just outside Edinburgh and game for this.

[purplefox]

I'd be interested.

[ocelot41]

Excellent! Let's see how many of us there are and where might be easiest for folks to get to. I am in SW Ed but happy to meet centrally if its easiest for others?

[ocelot41]

Just a quick shout out to other MNetters who said they would be interested in a meet on previous threads - Creativevoid, Alwaysinahurrynow, StaticallyChallenged, BrainlikeaSeive, Buttonface, DrSingleMum?

Add BankWadger to your list

[EnterWittyUsernameHere]

I'm interested!

[TheTurtleMoves]

I wonder if more folk might clock this thread if you got it moved to Chat OP? I know Scotsnet is the right section but it doesn't get as much traffic... (though quite happy being an elite selective bunch too )

[ocelot41]

Will try!

[madgingermunchkin]

I'm new to Edinburgh and know no one.

Not a mum though....

[ocelot41]

All welcome Mad!

[applesandpears33]

I'm interested - wonder if I know anyone in rl?

[StatisticallyChallenged]

count me in

[BearFoxBear]

I'm in too!

[MumsKnitter]

I'm up for it!

[prettybird]

I might even make the trek over to Edinburgh (if the date is suitable) just to meet statisticallychallenged

Not just for her bra advice, but she and I have come across each other (respectfully of course ) on a few of the political threads

[SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius]

Maybe I could come too, prettybird?

Do I need my passport to go over to Edinburgh?

[Alwaysinahurrynow]

Definitely up for it too, although currently 36 weeks pregnant. At least it'll make the group easy to find in a bar - how about something the week of 26th?

[StatisticallyChallenged]

HA pretty bird! Can we have a no indyref chat rule please?

[StatisticallyChallenged]

Week of 26th works for me. I'm in central Edinburgh

[SciFiFan2015]

Maybe? I'm an introvert and this sort of things fills me with terror!

[StatisticallyChallenged]

Me too SciFi.

[prettybird]

I already have that rule with STDG anyway StatisticallyChallenged

[Noofly]

Week of the 26th is fine for me. I suspect from StatisticallyChallenged's posting history that we might know some of the same people from work/previous employers.
