Dinner Thursday 27th May

[Kewcumber]

OK sso who is up for meeting for dinner probably central London (Victoria area) on Thursday evening 27th May.

C'mon, you know you want to...

me me me

funny that

I assume victoria is good for you?

yup, anywhere between Victoria and Euston is fine for me

I'm in. (Kew you can let go of my arm now. Ow!)

You've name changed!!!

Sorry, I forgot. I was thinking that I might change when I move to Dublin and was checking whether that name was still available. I meant to change it back.

you're moving to Dublin? when?

Have I not mentioned it to you? I've bored everybody rigid with talking about it, both on MN and in rl. We're going in August. We have had an offer accepted on a house in the suburbs near a tram line and not too far from my parents. DS has been accepted into the school that my DB went to. I'll email you a link to an arial photo of the house if you like.

Ooh yes please - you may have told me, its not befond the realm of possibility!

oh goody, who else can we persuade? hifi might be up for it and pheasantplucker was going to come last time IIRC

Thanks for the link Kew - let me just check my diary (not that there's much in it! I wouldn't want to create an illusion that I am some busy, popular 'girl about town'!!)

what sort of time?

Well I'm flexible and I htink Kristina has to ctach a train by about 11pm so I presume she is pretty flexible too. What time suits you? My mum is picking DS up form CM and so I will be free early if necessary.

i would probably be free after about 5.30, need to check with dh.ooh im excited.

I'm excited too! We are ridiculously easy to please

Looks great and going in diary.

The only proviso is that my dd1 is in the middle of various treatments at the mo, and we are waiting for 2 more appointments. She had surgery on Tuesday to lengthen the tendons in her calves (she has CP) and is now in casts. On Monday we are back at the hospital for botox on her wrist under another GA. There are various associated bits being scheduled for the next 6 weeks or so, dates tba.

BUT I really, really want to come, and I really, really hope to be there. (Could probably get to town for about 630, if dh can come home from work a bit early for the girls)

oh dear, i see that hifi always looks as trendy as possible.........we will have to go somewhere posh, kew

not the budgens sandwiches on the station platform again this time then?

no, i think we will need to push the boat out and go to Burger King

lots of pressure for new "trendy" outfit now.

Oh, if you all know each other well already maybe just keep the evening to yourselves? I don't mind.

god no, never met anyone else.pleeeese come.

don't sulk now PP, only kew and i have met ( i think) and only once. so we are hardly old pals ( although i lurve her ). you MUST come ( poorly Dd permitting)

and the outfit thing is a joke ( ref hifi attending panel in her trendy jeans). i will have been at the Chelsea Flower Show all day so will be in my jeans and trainers.

PLEASE come PP [begs]

what do you mean you think!

Kristina and I met a year ago once (it was indelibly burned on my brain but obviously not hers, despite the fact that I nearly made her miss the last train home!). But haven't met anyone else. I have tried to bully Bran into it a few times as she doesn;t live a million miles away but she keeps coming up with family emergencies to put me off...
