Thought I'd get this started so we can try & arrange something before the beanies are born

I think everyone said evenings/weekends were better and probably central London. So we just need a date & an actual place to meet!

Sorry but I won't be able to make either night now. Just heard that my nan died this afternoon so will be heading home at some point for the funeral.

sorry to hear that Rosmerta

Olipop · 17/09/2008 14:40

Hello girls....Rosmerta..sorry to hear about your nan...
I'm down for the 19th but would seriously struggle to make 6.30 as will have to pass the baby baton to DH when he gets in from work. Maybe I could come for pudding!!!!!

LadyThompson · 17/09/2008 15:14

Do come if you can, Olipop, it would be nice to see you. Everyone else: see you tomorrow! I am bringing my name card from last time as I am a good girl.

PinguRocks · 17/09/2008 19:20

LadyT not tomorrow, Friday (although it does feel like it's been one of those weeks....)

Rosmerta - so sorry about your nan.

I will be there on Friday but not sure if I'll be able to get there for 6.30 pm - depends how bad work is.

Beans33 · 18/09/2008 11:52

Oh Rosmerta, I'm so sorry. I hope you're ok.

I'm sorry but I'm not going to be able to make it tomorrow. I'm going to be very sensible and grown up and not go out until this cough of mine has at least retreated a little bit. I am in bits today and just coughing and coughing... Plus I don't want to give it to any of you as it's horrid. And dragging on!

I'm sorry, but have a lovely time - I'm so gutted not to be there.

xx

kmp1 · 18/09/2008 22:53

Oh so sorry but I have had an electrician coming late on Fri and i'd thought my DH would be home - turns out he's had to go on call until 9pm now, to cover some drama, so I will have to be home as I can't change it, and it has to be taken care of before the weekend!! I'll have to look at the following week I'm afraid - to not meet you tomorrow but look forward to hearing about it all!

EffiePerine · 19/09/2008 09:13

Really sorry, but another one who has to cry off! Family stuff which means I really ought to be at home tonight . I can make it next week I think, so will hopefully see some of you there.

sunshine so sorry to mess you around like this! It is hellish trying to organise a get-together for people with pesky family and work commitments...

pixsix · 19/09/2008 09:48

Hi Ladies,

Sorry to hear so many people can't make it anymore. I hope everything works out ok for you all.

How many of us are left for tonight? Should we still meet or should we postpone?

I am still up for meeting if other people are but if most people want to change to the 26th or postpone til another time, that's fine with me too!

Hope you are all having good Fridays.

sunshine185 · 19/09/2008 10:19

hi,

sorry rosmerta about your nan, hope you are okay. sorry everyone else who can't make it, no prob effie!! i'm still up for tonight, but happy either way, we have 5-6 of us confirmed, 2 - tbc....

pixsix
sunshine
ladythompson
pingurocks
turniphead
Olipop - pudding?

Purple79 - tbc
lowrib - tbc

if we go, happy to change venue to more central i.e. covent garden/angel/soho/clerkenwell etc if on the off chance we are all north of the river?

i'm easy!

Olipop · 19/09/2008 11:55

Hiya...sorry to be so noncommittal but I am not going to know if I can get there until DH actually gets though the door...if it changes from Ask Victoria could some one drop me a text? Number is 07909978940....not sure if you're supposed to publish phone numbers but I trust you all not to ring me up and heavy breathe (unless of course you are in labour and then you are most welcome!)

pixsix · 19/09/2008 12:43

Arrrgh, ladies I'm so sorry but am going to have to pull out as well.

After weeks of nausea, I've just been sick and am going home to bed. Hoping it's a one off preg thing rather than the start of a bug or food poisoning but just want to be on the safe side. Was actually feeling better this morning too.

I hope you have a great evening.

PS sorry if that was TMI for a thread about going out for dinner!

PinguRocks · 19/09/2008 13:04

Hi ladies. I can still make it tonight but it's starting to look increasingly like a re-schedule might be in order! I've got to go into a meeting for the afternoon now but will check back before I set out for Victoria.... (BTW: I work at London Bridge so am happy for a change of venue if that suits everyone else best).

PinguRocks · 19/09/2008 13:05

sorry, should also have said hope you feel better soon pixsix.....

Verso · 19/09/2008 13:07

Sooo... how many people want to meet up next Friday? I want to get numbers together by Wednesday and will book a table on Thursday.

sunshine185 · 19/09/2008 13:20

bummer pixsix, hope it's nothing serious, take it easy... my ms has re-appeared too so i sympathise...

well it sounds like numbers are dwindelling and to avoid anyone becoming billy no mates eating pizza alone, shall we re-sched?? for when more the merrier...yadayayaya!

so far i should be good for next friday verso....

over and out

EffiePerine · 19/09/2008 14:23

I should be able to do next week - looks like this week is jinxed!

Hope you feel better soon Pixsix

Purple79 · 19/09/2008 15:00

Sorry ladies I to can't make tonight.. have been so busy @ work I totally forgot... I'm soooo rubbish

Might be able to make next week, but will let u know. It does coincide with my best friends birthday but i think she's probably clubbing it - don't think i'll be up for that at the mo!

lowrib · 19/09/2008 15:49

Hiya,

I've had no internet connection for a while, having learnt (again!) that electronics and water just don't mix

I can make tonight and/or next week. Happy to go with whatever suits everyone.

Rosemerta, I'm sorry to hear your news, I hope you're OK.

LadyThompson · 19/09/2008 16:54

Hello everybody - I could make tonight at a pinch but it is VVV difficult now as I am dashing to make preparations for being on hols for two weeks. Obviously I won't be around next week so have a lovely time all. And someone let me know about tonight asap! xxLT

LadyThompson · 19/09/2008 16:55

I am north of the river though. Didn't Turnip say she couldn't come??

LadyThompson · 19/09/2008 17:13

Yes, T has just posted that she can't come. As I think that leaves Sunshine, Lowrib, Pingu and possibly me (though I am very stressed and still finishing up at the office, AND have to pack, so I should say no) I think a rearrangement is in order. So sorry!

PinguRocks · 19/09/2008 17:15

I shall head home rather than to Victoria then, once I manage to escape this place.....

I can't make next week so have a good time all!

lowrib · 19/09/2008 18:42

Looking forward to next week then

Will it be at Ask?

Verso · 19/09/2008 21:33

Yes - I was thinking Ask for next week. What I'll do is book a table for 7pm ish. I'm likely to be getting to Victoria quite a bit before that so can arrange to meet anyone who wants to in Starbucks for a drink first.
