Can those who have had a child adopted come I'm a Londoner?

Devora · 26/02/2014 22:57

I liked this one from that thread:

"when your relatives from the city visit and have to keep the radio on all night because they cant sleep in the dead silence (other than the animal noises which scare them)"

That's me! I always get very spooked in the country. You get vampires out there, don't you?

FamiliesShareGerms · 27/02/2014 01:40

I'd like to come if I can switch around some other things in the diary - I keep missing these meetings!

PheasantPlucker · 27/02/2014 14:05

In diary.

Message me/text me the venue etc when you decide, thanks.

Looking forward to seeing you.

Stupid mummy -of course you can come. Only condition is that you get a new name for this board, not just the meet up Smile

We have all done stupid things as parents, but we can't let it define us

I want to meet people the other side of adoption. The side that do the amazing draining loving job of giving that child exactly what they need.

I shall go change my user name now

OurMiracle1106 · 27/02/2014 18:38

Thanks Miracle, I hope we can share a Brew soon.

Italiangreyhound · 27/02/2014 21:46

Hi Miracle - like it.

Devora · 27/02/2014 21:47

Much better Smile

Kewcumber · 28/02/2014 17:06

Miracle (Yay!) you may sooooo regret that we are a bit loud and lairy. Well I say we but mostly I mean Kristina and Devora. I'm an accountant I just add up the bill and split it accurately.

Kewcumber · 26/03/2014 12:09

just bumping this in case anyone else wants to throw their hat in teh ring.

And in case someone wants to find somewhere quiet in central London for Kristina Hmm

Italiangreyhound · 26/03/2014 12:46

I am really sorry but something unavoidable has come up so very sadly I will not be able to make it.

Have fun, and please invite me to the next.

Hels20 · 26/03/2014 12:54

I'm still up for it. DH will be on babysitting duty. I can do Central London/West London - or anywhere really. Don't mind going South of river or further North or East!

DaffodilDandy · 26/03/2014 13:07

Have a nice time everyone! Smile

(Please forward any information you get from Kew or Miracle about either of their paramours onto the rest of us Grin)
