Fed up of the cuts? Fed up of the mislead bigotry? This is your sanctuary. Unwind. Vent. Pop over to the frothers thread if you feel like getting organised and doing some proactive stuff or just chill out with a cup of builders tea in a polystyrene cup.

Welcome.

:( Bloody Scotland is too far away for me to come to the meetup. And I so wanted to snog Shirl a waiter.

25th?????????????????????

You can't come. You need to go to playgroup or something.

TeWihara · 24/01/2012 21:00

'tis the day after my 25th birthday Grin

Yes! I can come, probably just for lunch if I've got the baby though.

Pay no heed to any ttc nonsense from me. If dh and I can't even make up our minds then I can't expect anyone else to adjust plans. I am not good at being pregnant. It makes me vair irritable.

Ah, the Farringdon travelodge. Happy days. An homage to artex.

KnottyLocks · 24/01/2012 20:45

Having checked my hectic calendar, I am available on the following Saturdays (I'm assuming Saturday is what we're thinking) :

March
10th
24th

April 28th (and 14th if we count the last weekend of the Easter hols)

I am actually available nearly every other Saturday but DH is not. The bugger has football. Football cramps my style. Boo.

So April the 28th is looking abit sexual for you then Spike?

Is the 28th April looking a bit TTC for you Kate or have I struck an amazingly brilliant date full of amazement and shit?

If you move it sooner I'll come but don't leave it too long because we are throwing caution to the wind thinking about ttc and I don't want to come and be sober. That would be dull.

I once had the misfortune of staying in the Travelodge in Battersea. It was like Holloway prison but less luxurious.

PI London Eye is better

OK, we're going to be slightly screwed on the £29 Premier Inn thing - because they don't run those in London Hmm

So there you are.

Let me give you the full SP on what I've discovered for the weekend of the 28/04/2012.

Travelodge - Double rooms (this can mean family) are currently sitting at £85.95 per room. So that's £42 mmble mumble each.

Staying at Farringdon

I've stayed here - it was OK, bit dated (who gives a shit right?) but perfectly OK

or

I think this is £99.00 but I can't really work it out:

Premier Inn London Eye

I've stayed here - it's amazingly fab.

This works out at 50 nicker per person - unless it's the £117 when it rises to a bit more.

Hullygully · 24/01/2012 19:52

Right London

Agree with all your thoughts Shirl.

TeWihara · 24/01/2012 19:51

Peachy I saw one of your posts on Twitter earlier btw - your boys are extremely cute!

ShirleyForAllSeasons · 24/01/2012 19:50

I managed to get a train to Manchester from London for £11 once Peachy - Shock

(I could possibly do an M4 drive down as a pick up getting some stragglers on the way - shall we see?)
