Hi. Only been on mumsnet a few months but have noticed majority come from down south. Are there any Sheffield/South Yorkshire mums on? As you can probably guess, I'm from Sheffield!

Hulababy is from Sheffield, keep a look out she has been known to organise meetups at a spa in Sheffield and I have seen meetups arranged for Meadowhall - there's quite a few in Barnsley. Gingerbear lives somewhere near my old stomping ground (Doncaster). There's to be a big northern meetup in July in Manchester too. Keep a look out - there are quite a few!

sarahhal · 30/04/2006 18:43

Hi Sarahlou! There's quite a few West/South Yorks of us about!

Keep an eye out as we're hoping to meet up again soon prob Barnsley area.

Gingerbear · 30/04/2006 18:45

Hi Sarah, yep, quite a few mums here from Sheffield/South Yorks. I am near Doncaster, but often get to Sheffield / Barnsley for meet-ups with other mums. Hulababy is away this weekend.

katzg · 30/04/2006 18:45

me i'm in sheffield and great friends with hula

we could use an other meet up!

Gingerbear · 30/04/2006 18:46

the Spa meet-ups are great. Do you know it - Spa 1877 off West Bar?

Yorkiegirl · 30/04/2006 18:47

cooee katz are you on msn?

katzg · 30/04/2006 18:48

am now

Nbg · 30/04/2006 19:00

Theres 4 of us in Barnsley.
Soon to be 3 as I'm moving in 2/3 weeks time but they are a lovely bunch (bit mad but...)

sarahlou1uk · 30/04/2006 19:29

Hi everyone. Yes, Gingerbear, I know the Spa 1877. My brother bought me a gift voucher for it for christmas but I haven't used it yet. He's got me the pregnancy massage as I cannot go in the sauna or plunge pool. My mum also got a voucher (but not for pregnancy one!) so when I get round to it I'll book us both in! Nice to hear that there are some mums in this neck of the woods. I've got one ds age 3 and currently 24 weeks pregnant with 2nd (girl). Have seen a few familiar names on other threads but didn't realise northerners!! A meet up would be great (but I'm not volunteering to plan it!!)

Yorkiegirl · 30/04/2006 19:31

there is going to be a spa meetup in September... for my birthday! Any excuse eh... When is your baby due? August I'd guess as my neighbour is also 24 weeks and is due then.

Nbg · 30/04/2006 19:35

Ahhh your on the August ante-natal thread aren't you?

I thought I'd seen your name before

sarahlou1uk · 30/04/2006 20:21

Yep, I'm due 16 August but it's my second so it's anybody's guess!!! My first was one week over which I DON'T want to repeat!!

hulababy · 30/04/2006 21:55

Hi :) I m away at moment but borrowning the computer, s everyone else is watching soem invasion programme - not my thing.

I live in Sheffield, yes. We used to have more regular meets at one time. We need something setting up again don't we? When is everyone free?

I am free Mondays and Fridays generally.

Gingerbear · 30/04/2006 22:16

We'd better get some summer meet-ups in because I am back 5 days from September.

hulababy · 30/04/2006 22:23

Definitely summer then GB. Actually come to think of it, although I will be free 2 days a week, DD will be at school Keep forgetting. I am away for two weeks from 13th June on holiday, but not much more on other than that.

katzg · 01/05/2006 08:10

mon and fri are my free days too!

bet purpleturtle would come too!

what about a friday lunchtime meet - i can get DD1 from nursery before lunch - we could meet at Zooby's!

Gingerbear · 01/05/2006 10:09

Great idea. Not been to Zooby's for ages

katzg · 01/05/2006 14:38

when?

hulababy · 01/05/2006 19:45

Sounds good to me too. Can also collect DD from nursery before lunch time.

What dates can you all do? How about we choose from some in next few weeks, or is that too soon?

Fri 5th May
Fri 12th May
Fri 19th May
Fri 26th May
Fri 2nd June
Fri 9th June

I can't do Friday 16th or 23rd June as on holiday Suppose I ought to be unpacking on 30th but could maybe manage it. That then takes us into July.

Gingerbear · 01/05/2006 22:49

can't do 19 May - that is my posh frock do in Cardiff w/e

yorkshirepuddling · 01/05/2006 23:45

Hi Sarahlou - I'm also in Sheffield.

I didn't realise there was so many S Yorks mums on mumsnet.

katzg · 02/05/2006 08:49

any of the below i think!

Shall we go for the 12th?

say 12.30 in Zooby's?

I will shortly be a Sheffield mum! Not moving up til mid-June so won't be able to make this meet-up but next time would love to as I won't know anyone up there and will be embarking on life as a SAHM unless a minor miracle occurs with my job-hunting.
