That would be great. She is looking forward to seeing your ds because 'he is soooo cute' Grin

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 17/09/2012 15:05

Yes - in the cafe.

VintageEbonyGold · 17/09/2012 18:58

Yes, just me, might be a wee bit late possibly also am emergency cover for work but shouldn't be needed

I have succeeded in ss, dc, htr, tr and dtr although my tension is pants and the sides are a bit funny plan to get knitting stuff aswell

Baskets45 · 17/09/2012 19:52

I'm going to try to get there on Monday - will involve leaving 2 dc alone for a bit - they are big but there are SNs. I think I'll make decision nearer time.

Can anyone find me the thread on woolly hugs please, the most recent one? or point me in direction of it. I want to reread the guidelines on Mini Hugs project. Going to a real yarn shop tomorrow Smile , so can handle the goods, and want to check what i have in mind is possible before buying. Ta xx

Thanks, glaikit!

Baskets45 · 17/09/2012 20:15

Not sure why I couldn't find it - tiredness I think!

prettybird · 20/09/2012 16:07

Still not sure if I can make it: dh is having a business meeting on the Tuesday (when ds is still off: the joy of the extra Inset day at secondary Hmm) so we might be doing something as a family on the Monday.

OhBurger · 20/09/2012 22:06

I can't make Monday ladies Sad

HairyPotter · 21/09/2012 18:24

Oh no Pretty and burger Sad that's a shame. We shall need to organise another one soon.

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 23/09/2012 18:14

I will be there, with my big knitting bag, so I should be easy enough to spot! Looking forward to seeing you all - and so sorry that pretty and burger won't be there.

GlaikitFizzog · 23/09/2012 18:35

I'll be baby wrangling again and looking stressed!

Hairy is mini hairy still coming?

HairyPotter · 23/09/2012 19:27

Oh yes! She is very excited Confused We are about to have yet another go at a square later tonight. Grin

I should be there around 11 if i don't get lost

VintageEbonyGold · 23/09/2012 19:41

I'll be the terrified country bumpkin getting too excited at visiting civilisation, unless I get caught in the gales on the way up did survive touring Skye during Bawbag so I should be ok

HairyPotter · 23/09/2012 19:44

How are you getting there Vintage? If you are passing anywhere near me I can scoop you up on the way?

Baskets45 · 23/09/2012 20:01

I'm another one in the sticks - have set my alarm and if I feel okay when it rings I'll be on the 'red eye' bus to Glesca. All over the place with this project - have a bag of yarn and some ideas, but have started nothing yet. Quite excited about a day in the big city. I love Glasgow. And the Burrell. Hope to see some of you tomorrow then.

HairyPotter · 23/09/2012 20:10

Fab Baskets hope to see you there! You wont miss me, I'll have my two dds with me and a harrased expression on my coupon Grin

VintageEbonyGold · 23/09/2012 21:00

Where abouts are you Hairy?

prettybird · 23/09/2012 21:03

My be able to make it after all - not so ds may have blown his chances of doing something nice as a family, so that frees me up..... :)

Not sure I should leave him and dh alone in the house together though - blood may be spilled Hmm

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 23/09/2012 21:15

Oh - do come, prettybird!

prettybird · 23/09/2012 21:54

I'll need to see whether dh and ds are s?t?i?l?l? ?a?t? ?e?a?c?h? ?o?t?h?e?r?'?s? ?t?h?r?o?a?t?s? talking to each other tomorrow morning.

I could always d?r?a?g? bring ds along as p?u?n?i?s?h?m?e?n?t? a treat Wink
