Hi Mummyhill,
Welcome to Mumsnet. I'm from South Birmingham as well, and my DD is nearly 3. I work full time. I went to my first Mumsnet meet up a couple of weeks ago and it was good to meet some new people (including Chriz - Hi).
How old is your DD?

Hiya Mumyhill.

Yeh where abouts are you in good ole Brum???


I can do anymore meet ups till after Jan, as I am due to drop, but hey, I'll be about during school hours everyday, so could meet up if you can handle a baby???

I have met & meet up with Madame butterfly and Chriz, also met MumtoLaura recently, and we are all fine, not real nutters, (except me I'm just MAD!!)

There are also several more mothers to meet up with.

Maybe if we do a meet up in January you could always come along

Hi Mummyhill, I'm in Sutton Coldfield, haven't done a meet-up yet but hoping to get along to one in the future. I've got a 3.5yo dd, who I also spend most of the day cooped up with. Look forward to chatting with you here on MN.

We live in Great Barr, dd will be three in february. I cannot manage a meet till the new year (unless it is local and i can be back home by 4pm) as i work for asda and we are not allowed to book any leave durring the run up to christmas. I look forward to talking to you all and maybe getting together with a group (don't tell dh he is convinced everyone out in cyberspace are dangerous ). I love babies and am hoping to try for another one in the new year .

mummyhill - she hasn't posted here yet, but you need to get in touch with whimsy. She's very local to you by the sound of it, so you wouldn't even need a bus to do a meet up!

Mummyhill, - wow I grew up in Great Barr and my family all live there.

You also need to speak to Mez75, she lives down the road from my family in Great Barr. She doesnt drive, so you could always meet up.

My sister works at Asda, is it the Asda on Queslett Road, she works evenings etc, wow what asmall world

Thanks folks. Have met whimsy through another source, she is the one who told me about MN. Can easily get to birmingham city centre, sutton coldfiled, erdington, walsall and west brom centre by bus. So if anyone fancies a trip to macdonalds or a wacky before christmas we could go en masse and take over the place. I am looking forward to getting to know you all.

chriz - i can get as far as erdington but don't have clue about a bus up to the fort jester and it's a bit far to walk!!!!!! There is a wacky in mere green - bus to sutton then a 996 out to mere green and a 10 min walk. Or it is allways possible to find a cafe for a coffee.
