Let's try for a Thursday this time. (Dinosaur am keeping fingers crossed that you can make this one .)

The next city lunch will be at Pizza Pomodoro - very close to Liverpool St Station, 5 minutes walk from Moorgate. Date - Thursday 14th April at 12:30.

Anybody welcome, just post here to confirm.

Sorry petal. I'd forgotten how prim and proper all you city girls are.
Goodness, what a shame I won't be able to be there this time as I shall be away.
Try to have fun without me although I know it will be hard.
Better? .

Marina · 16/03/2005 16:13

Should be here but will have to remember not to swear in Kayleigh's hearing...

hello, I am quite new to mums net. I have had no time to be an active participant but I was able to read very interesting threads during my lunchbreak. Even now I am writing few words at a time as I keep getting interrupted by my 2y old trying to type her own message!!!! I am trying to get to know other mums. I have recently posted a message looking for mums in Bermondsey but no one has come forward. I cannot believe there is no mumsnetters in south east london. maybe my message sounded so depressed and put people off. anyway, I work in EC4 so I can take an extended lunch and meet your group. I am a bit nervous about the whole thing though.

Kayleigh · 16/03/2005 18:54

Barbarax, it would be lovely to meet you. We are a really nice bunch (even if i say so myself ). Welcome to Mumsnet and it would be lovely to welcome you at a city meet-up.

Barbarax · 17/03/2005 10:37

Thanks Kayleigh. Please count me in. I am looking forward to this.

HandbagAddiction · 17/03/2005 10:39

Me please Kayleigh!!

Looking forward to meeting you Barbarax

dinosaur · 17/03/2005 10:40

It's in the diary!!

Kayleigh · 17/03/2005 10:41

Finally dinosaur !!!!! It's been ages.

Sponge · 17/03/2005 17:16

Typical Dino, you can only make one that I can't. Are you avoiding me?

Barbarax, go along. They're really a very nice bunch and relatively sane. I was v nervous first time but everyone made me feel very welcome and it was surprisingly easy.

Twinkie · 19/03/2005 14:37

Its in my diary too!!

Hello everyone only got a minute am going swimming - have had to join local david lloyd just so I can hook up with you guys!!

Sorry Kayleigh for not phoning you back am trying to get your number off of our answering machine which is not the most technophobe friendly thing!! - Ring me again so we can have a chat - will deffo get to this meet though and you can meet my fat little man!!

HandbagAddiction · 21/03/2005 10:33

Twinkie,

Great to hear from you - hope you and Max are still doing well. Would love to meet Max if you can make it to this next meet-up. How exciting......

dinosaur · 21/03/2005 10:36

Hi Twinkie - am hyperventilating with excitement at the prospect of seeing you and meeting Max!

Hopefully Davros and her dd are going to come along.

Kayleigh · 21/03/2005 10:51

Oooh Twinkie. Will be so good to see you and meet Max.

Dinosaur, will be nice to see Davros again. We have met once but only very briefly on my doorstep !

Sponge · 21/03/2005 11:15

I'm really disappointed now I'm going to miss the chubby Twinklet too .

dinosaur · 21/03/2005 16:04

3mum is going to come to this as well, I hope

NotQuiteCockney · 21/03/2005 16:23

I think I might be able to make this one. DS1 seems to have (finally) given up napping, so I think we'll put him in school full-time, so I will not be picking him up at lunch time. Woohoo!

I will have DS2 with me - anyone else bringing a vomiting houseplant type person?

dinosaur · 21/03/2005 17:03

Oh that is fab news - it will be lovely to see you after all these years (well, three years) and see your DS2!

I wish I could bring DS3 but now am back at work. I suppose I could plead with DH to bring him in for an hour so I could show him off. But DH would have to sit outside and wait for him to be returned - I'm not having him sitting at the table cramping my style!

NotQuiteCockney · 21/03/2005 20:01

You can borrow DS2 when we're there, if you like.

Although, realistically, I probably won't be passing him about. He's sometimes a slightly pukey baby, and if you are all going to be in fancy City gear, you won't want him on you!
