Morning all! What happened to the sunshine??
SOOOOOOOOOO tired this morning and LO jumping around like crazy. xx

Hope everyone else is good

We've got sunshine in Angus....

Send some here klaw!!!

morning all!

first visit of the summer to cairnie yesterday afternoon and it was lovely

we really must set about agreeing on that date for a meet up

I agree dizzy - the sooner the better!! Maybe we better watch the weather reports for the next month though... - is it going to stay nice???

Are you organised for LO dizzy - I am so NOT!!

minipink having only just accepted that this is all happening I think we can safely say I'm not lol!! May is too busy so will set about it in June

Hi, sorry I'm not contributing to the thread, but I do try to keep up with it most weeks.

Would love to be part of Cairnie meet up but can only manage school hols (30 June onwards) or w/ends as have a LO in P1.

Hi jamtastic - good to hear from you

Maybe we will have more than one trip to Cairnie - one soon and one later

What about dates dizzy?

Hi all, I keep losing this blummin thread, it's so frustrating!

Really looking forward to Cairnie. Two visits sounds like a good idea to me too!

I was wondering if any of you local ladies know of a shop or baker's (in either Perth, Dundee or St Andrews) which sells cake decorating stuff, sugar flowers and suchlike. I have been asked to make a cake for PIL's Ruby Wedding (eek!)

Hope everyone is well and the bumps are behaving themselves

pinkpussycat the celebration station in Perth is fab and the staff in there are lovely and will help you with anything you need

can point you in direction of a few good websites too if you like or do you want to see it first?

minipink am still muddling with my final few shifts but will have a look at dates asap

anyone with any suggestions throw them in the ring

building a stupidly large climbing frame for our stupidly small garden today - well when I say building, dh (when he gets home) and friend are building it whilst I sit here and MN

Ah Dizzy, I knew I could rely on you to know about the cake industry!

That's great, I've got the address from the website and will be heading out there tomorrow, Many thanks!

rght, been at cairnie farm again today - they had lemon drizzle muffins so if that doesn't encourage some of you to throw some possible dates at me I don't know what will

p.s - they have no more left today so don't bother popping down if you're reading this

OK dizzy - Thursday 5th June or Sat 7th or Sun 8th or thurs 12th June or Fri 13th or Sat 14th or Sun 15th ????????????{wink]

Hi all

Hopw you are well. Glad to see we're making some progress on the Cairnie day out. I can pretty much do any day but Sundays, thats our family day when dh isn't working.

Also the 15th is Fathers day and don't think he'd appreciate being left or maybe he would

I've never been to Cairnie before so what is there to do and is it a whole day or couple of hours thing? Also is the parking easy? I tend to stress about the little things like that and i'll back out of comin god i sound like a nutter now

Ta ta for now

Hey Jenny,
Cairnie is a fruit farm that has a mega maize maze (which won't be up to much at this time but it's still a wee walk) and there's trampolines, giant haystacks (not the wrestler I'll leave that to see if anyone is old enough to pick up the ref lol) a huge sand pit, go carts... loads of stuff for kids to do, and there is a rather nice cafe you may have heard some going on about And there's loads of parking. If the car park at the front is full they use the field across the road, so no worries! You could easily spend and afternoon there, or even a whole day and they don't give you gyp if you bring a picnic.

maize maze isn't ready until july 17th but the strawberries are up and nearly ready for picking

for those who don't know what we're talking about look here

Dizzy I went to Celebration Station in Perth on sat - got there at 3.30pm to find they close at 3 on Saturdays!! Grrr..... But it looks great, thanks for the recommendation!

However, there's an excuse for more shopping now!

oh no PPC am sorry I don't know their opening house - sorry for your wasted journey
they are lovely and very helpful though

they made my wedding cake and dd1's birthday cakes the past few years and all have been very nicely done and delicious too

Am trying not to go in so much as I keep getting ideas above my station and buying all sorts of exotic cake making things
