Can accommaodate overnighters at mine so EI im sure i can find somewhere for you if you wanted to stay too and my cars big enogh for 8!! Have a futon and a single bed available and also an air bed etc so room not an issue really as long as you dont mind sleeping in a room full of toys!!!!

ei23mummy · 08/09/2005 21:38

that would be great bonkerz as long as you dont mind a house full of relatively new faces!! my dp is acting a bit strangely about this meeting up thing(im sure he thinks iv got an internet lover!!) hes asked if he can come and said that hed take the day off work!! he wont even book a day off for my birthday- hes so protective its as tho your all murderers or somethin!!

ei23mummy · 08/09/2005 21:39

your not are you??

scully · 09/09/2005 08:32

ha ha ei
I'm sure we'll have all lost the plot by then anyway, being so close to our due dates

Nemo1977 · 09/09/2005 08:33

lol ei if it would make you feel better we could meet up before.

sweetheart · 09/09/2005 09:14

ei, My dh was the same the first time I met a MN'er. He made me ring him just before I went in and then I had to excuse myself to the loo within 5 mins to ring and tell him I was OK - otherwise he was going to ring the police!!!!!

He also made me put something in my coat pocket so I could defend myself if I needed to!!!

that's funny SH, but I can understand their reluctance, just wanting to protect us from weirdo's - too late from the sounds of it

ei23mummy · 09/09/2005 12:51

pmsl!!! its not me thats worried as were all prob as bad as eachother! haha i think he just wants to be able to pick you guys out of a police line-up if i do decide to disappear!! haha you never know eh!!

bonkerz · 09/09/2005 13:23

My Dh has always been quite supportive of my posting on here and meeting with other MN (although only met 2 so far!) Like i said Ei, i have the space (now just need to figure out if i can dispose of your bodies efficiently enough! 2 is harder work!) The best thing is you see if you really dont like me or my house then you and nemo can go home together! Heres hopeing we can have a great time in Basingstoke and then maybe Dh will be kind and have kids in evening so we can pop for indian or chinese!!
Oh i am so excited, have added date to diary!

sweetheart · 10/10/2005 12:12

Just found this thread, I wont be able to make it girls sorry!!!!!!!

Someone needs to take a camera so they can post some piccies on here so us girlies that can't make it can still see what you all got up to and still put names to faces!!

DP said he would take the day off and drive me to meet you guys but then he'd be wandering around for hours doing nothing so I felt bad.

Whos going to be in charge of the pics then????

Nemo666 · 11/10/2005 13:49

Dont know if I come either because of money Unless they suddenly sort out our tax credits then it is unlikely.

ei23monster · 11/10/2005 17:20

im still up for coming girls!! obv ill see how cash and work are but otherwise im still on the list!!

dramaqueen72 · 11/10/2005 17:24

kangel -actually thats what my dh is doing, christmas shopping for a couple of hours so he can deliver me safely and drive me home again.
oh nemo, I wanted to meet you hope something changes and you can come.
pictures?? hmmmmmmmm, several pg ladies?? okay I shall take my camera. (and edit us all in photoshop so we all look glowing and gorgeous)

george32 · 11/10/2005 17:58

Nooooooooooo, you can't take a camera
I'm bad enough when there is a camera around at the best of times but whilst looking like a heffalump?????
No chance!!

dramaqueen72 · 11/10/2005 19:07

I'll edit us well george, okay. promise.

dramaqueen72 · 11/10/2005 19:07

and do you mind miss 'eight squares still'! who you calling a hefferlump?????????????????

sweetheart · 17/10/2005 12:48

OK, I'm finally going to get round to booking the table in the next couple of days.

I know it's not definate yet so don't panic if your not 100% sure if you can make it or not.

I'm booking a table for 8 adults and 4 kids. That is:-

Me
scully + dd
Nemo + ds
Ninah + ds
DQ
Bonkerz + ds
Eimummy
George

I know someone said on the other thread about not bringing their child along but I can't remember who it was.

Can those of you who have a child next to your name just post and say if you want a high chair or a normal chair and then I'll make the booking.

Nemo - I know bonkerz will probably have other stuff to do so would you be able to answer for her possibly????

CHEERS ALL!!!!

OP posts:
ninah · 17/10/2005 13:21

sounds right to me! I said about not bringing a child originally, who knows, if p can do Daddy Daycare again I might even come alone but to be on the safe side a chair (normal) for ds please.

Nemo666 · 17/10/2005 13:53

hi
im not going to be able to come. Tax credits have refused our appeal so still on extremely strict budget. Sorry all!!!!
