York meet-up

So there seems to be some interest on Twitter for a meet-up in York/surrounds. Who's would like to join in? It seems logical that we wait for schools to start again and a morning in the week would suit me best.

Hello
I'm new to York and mumsnet! Would be great to meet up with some other mums in the area. I have a 19 month old ds so it would also be good to get any tips you all have on what to do in York.
Hopefully we'll be able to come along to the meet up on 1st July...

EthelredOnAGoodDay · 24/06/2011 00:08

at the risk of sounding like a stuck record, i am going to try to get along to this meet up! Fridays are good for me, so fingers crossed Grin

woofie · 26/06/2011 09:53

Hi everyone,

we're around on friday. Was planning on going to story time at the library at 10 but cd come on to the Minster gardens afterwards. Looking forward to a catch up. Wx

TheRealMBJ · 27/06/2011 08:17

Will be nice to finally meet you Ethelred and good to catch up woofie.

I'd think 10H30 onwards is a good time to meet. Will give me a chance to pop to the shops on my way home Grin

momino · 27/06/2011 14:09

looking forward to meeting everyone. I've only met quincy out of this lot so far.

Quincy, want to walk in with me? Assuming you have to pass through S/croft rd?

QuincyMincemeat · 28/06/2011 15:31

yep, I'd love to momino. text me as to where you want to meet up

TheRealMBJ · 30/06/2011 18:09

Do we have a bad weather contingency plan?

FunkySkunk · 30/06/2011 19:00

Oi Momimo you've met me loads. Cheeky caaaaaaah.

I am bringing just smallest child, 2yr old fiend. She has just smeared a hideous poo on the (cream) carpet. She is not favourite child at the moment.

SybilBeddows · 30/06/2011 19:02

I am definitely coming. Unless a child is ill

TheRealMBJ · 30/06/2011 19:13

It is looking increasingly unlikely that I will be able to make it SadSadSad. DS spiking fevers with no indication why, so unless we have a completely uneventful night...

Sorry, I was so looking forward to it Sad

SybilBeddows · 30/06/2011 19:22

oh dear!
poor little thing, I hope he feels better soon.
how are you doing yourself?

TheRealMBJ · 30/06/2011 20:01

Ok. Pregnant, so highly emotional Grin
It's the anxiety and fear that goes with a fever that gets to me. I'm so worried that I won't be able to control the fever and that he'll fit. Never mind the fact that, I know that, studies show that antipyretics don't make any difference in the number or frequency of febrile convulsions,I still feel responsible. Sad

So I become paralysed and don't want to go anywhere in case it makes it worse....

Oi, it's pathetic really.

QuincyMincemeat · 30/06/2011 22:52

oh no MBJ. I haz chocolate brownies for you Grin.
Seriously though, I hope J is ok and you have a peaceful night, and you do what ever you think is best.

TheRealMBJ · 01/07/2011 06:11

I'm not going to come today. I really, really want to but I think it best that J has a quiet day at home. Sad

Sorry.

And it looks like such a nice day too...

SybilBeddows · 01/07/2011 08:33

It looks like I can't come either - dd has something and we are afraid it might be Lyme Disease after her tick bite a month ago Confused
she has all the symptoms except the rash. She's sitting there with her arms and legs sticking out saying it hurts too much to bend them.
we have a doc appointment at 9, they are so good at seeing children quickly.

TheRealMBJ · 01/07/2011 10:19

Oh no Sybil. Let us know how you get on. We're going back to the GP again this morning. I have very little hope that they will be of any use though. He's still feverish despite maximum doses of calpol and ibuprofen .

SybilBeddows · 01/07/2011 10:23

he's given her antibiotics; he said it could be Lyme disease or could be parvovirus so he's given her the antibiotics anyway but isn't bothering with a blood test.
so we will probably never know if it was Lyme disease or not but don't mind as long as she gets better.

good luck with your GP!

QuincyMincemeat · 02/07/2011 15:45

oh no Sybil Sad how is she today?

how's J , MBJ?

TheRealMBJ · 02/07/2011 18:24

DS is better today (typical for him to wait until the day after the meet-up Angry Grin), still, we have stayed close to home and had a quiet day.

Hope DD is feeling better Sybil.

In light of illness thwarting this meet-up, should we arrange another soon? (I really need an excuse to come to York and I have something in my freezer to give you anyway, Quincy)

QuincyMincemeat · 02/07/2011 21:48

oh my gosh. exciting. I'll make some more brownies for youGrin.

when do you want to meet? before school holidays start ?

TheRealMBJ · 03/07/2011 05:47

When is that? (Confesses to having no idea).
