Just that really.
After seeing so many Cambridge folk in one place on the hotel thread I thought it'd be nice to try and have a meet up.

So sign up here!

I don't think I will eat dinner but will happily share chips Grin

NewtoCambridge · 30/07/2013 21:45

I don't think I've ever said no to chips

MarronGlace · 30/07/2013 21:48

Wouldn't it be funny if someone found their neighbour or colleague at the meet up? Smile

I was thinking just that Marron. I suspect someone I know from NCT is a MNer and I wondered if she would turn up.

There was a thread around about last April or May when lots of Cambridge/shire types signed in. I recognised and was recognised by one person from their description of their family/location. (I have since completely forgotten their user name - honest.)

That thread culminated in an almighty 3 person meet up in Milton Country Park and a trip to the Early Night Club with another 3 people.

Throughgrittedteeth - you were on the Milton meet up thread I think.

On the basis of 1 bowl of chips, 6 forks, I've booked a table for 8pm - I hope that's ok with everyone.

Should we post the meet up on main chat too?

ooooh yes I was! But I couldn't make it in the end. I did go to the Early Night Club with my NCT friends, but didn't mention it on here. I don't think it was me that recognised you A14..
I am quite intrigued though, I've lived in Cambridge most of my life so meeting new people is exciting!

Oh yes, the thread where I told everyone where I work Hmm Grin

Ooh, (goes back through old thread) I bought something from that place just a couple of weeks ago. I remembered a MNetter worked there, so I was all beady eyed but I couldn't figure out if it was anyone who I encountered when I went in.

So in rambling conclusion, there's a possibility I've met you!

GinAndIt · 31/07/2013 13:23

so whats everyone wearing then? and how will we recognise each other? shall I bring a fruitshoot and some pom bears with me? Grin

theA14 · 31/07/2013 17:12

I have glasses, a plum/burgundy coloured dress and a purple handbag.

I could also ring Baroosh and get the table booking changed from my name to a name we agree - then you can ask for the 'gina ford' party or the 'justine' table when you arrive?

NewtoCambridge · 31/07/2013 17:57

No idea what I'm wearing. Also wondering if I know any of you, but given how few people I know in Cambridge it's unlikely.

GinAndIt · 31/07/2013 19:23

thats a good idea theA14 !

Throughgrittedteeth · 31/07/2013 23:03

Great idea A14! I think the Justine table is a good one.
I'm not sure what I'll wear yet, I will have a little look at my threads now and try to decide Grin

I'll probably be wearing a light blue dress. In case anyone cares was wondering Grin

OP posts:
mynameisnt · 02/08/2013 11:27

I don't think I'll make it tonight :( Basically it's money, and distance and being tired and rubbish things like that. Can we do another one later as well??

MarronGlace · 02/08/2013 11:35

I'll be wearing a colourful Desigual skirt and beige cotton jumper and I'm overweight Grin

Aw that's a shame myname! I think we said up thread about one in September so you should definitely try and come to that! If you want to meet on a week day though send me a pm and we can sort something out Smile

OP posts:
theA14 · 02/08/2013 16:19

Hello, sorry we won't see you mynameisnt. I've changed the table name to 'justine' and it'll be in the top bar.

GinAndIt · 02/08/2013 17:17

I'll be wearing a black vest top and jeans. looking forward to meeting everyone! Grin
