Congratulations MPS! She is a little honey with a great name

BTW I went to cairnie the other week and whilst everything else was there the maze was still under wraps (literally in some bits lol) They had a pre maze price too, which was a bonus. I got some lovely staws and tayberry jam which made up for the fact we didn't have a chance to get to the cafe- although only just...

Hi Dingdong! Long time no hear....

You coming on the 22nd?

Klaw · 16/06/2008 18:49

Hey Dingdong! So, are you coming to Cairnie on the 22nd?

Has everyone got transport? Anyone need a lift?

dizzydixies · 16/06/2008 19:54

Am fine for transport but thank you klaw

dingdong05 · 16/06/2008 22:29

Hello everyone! I'd love to come to Cairnie on Sunday (it is sunday, isn't it? Counts on fingers...) It would be great to meet you all, and see klaw again, of course. I would be in need of a lift though, if anyone has space for the 2 of us... I did cycle to clatto today (finally started tackling hills, lol) but I think cupar is a bit far for me at the mo
I'm glad I stopped by here just in time to tag along!

Klaw · 16/06/2008 23:01

Dingdong, I could pick you up on way through if you wish, email me to arrange meeting place. OK?

My car is a complete tip, a piece of junk, makes some funny noises, has no air conditioning, or stereo,

if you don't mind that.....

the other option is my fiesta which has two car seats in the back so room in passanger seat or boot

what a choice for dingdong lol

dingdong05 · 17/06/2008 14:42

Gosh, so many choices... an impossible choice! Especially since klaw has talked her car up so much lol
Would it be easier to go with the car seats? J is 4 so would he fit? I do have a seat for him (for just such an occasion ) The other thing is, do I have to go in the boot?

dingdong05 · 17/06/2008 14:53

Also, have you guys decided on a time?

minipinkscottish · 17/06/2008 18:17

Hi all - I am also keen to know what time on Sunday. Are we taking picnic lunch for LO's? Of course we will all be having strawberry tarts

minipinkscottish · 17/06/2008 18:21

Anyone heard form Jennyfrom the block formally known as HOOHOO? She is also in Auchtermuchty but not too sure where. I could try to track her down as I know she said she wanted to come

dizzydixies · 17/06/2008 21:18

am pretty sure it opens at 10am and seeing as mine get up at the crack of dawn anyway I can be there for 10am - doesn't matter if thats too early for some though

shall also probably be a lazy slattern and just buy them a baked potato whilst there - am on least effort required mode at the moment!!

dingdong am not sure if he would fit between the seats, I think your best bet is Klaw and me as a back up

Klaw · 17/06/2008 23:26

I doubt I'll be there for 10!!! 11 might be closer.... Dingdong, please just email me to arrange pick up time, You can sit in the front, or the boot, and your ds can have his car seat in the back with dd.

Obviously, I'll be drivign through Dundee so it's no problem to stop and get you.

Surely Dizzy is on the south side of the water?

OP posts:
minipinkscottish · 18/06/2008 09:48

I will probably be closer to 11.30ish depending on baby feeds etc. I will bring something for LO's lunch as they ususally just like to pick when they are playing.

I know this is probably a daft question (it'll probably be obvious) but how will we know each other??

I am coming with dd age 5 ds age 10 and ds age 2 and of course new little baby.

dizzydixies · 18/06/2008 16:12

11am is fine for me too - am never anywhere exactly when I say I'll be worse now that am getting slower!

minipink - I think we'll be quite obvious we I know I will lol

klaw I found a local lady who does antenatal yoga and relaxation at the uni - was chatting to her on the phone today, she sounds very nice and I mentioned your Dundee birth choices and she was so interested in it all I said I'd pass on her details to you

dizzydixies · 20/06/2008 09:01

girls

according to the met office and the BBC, sat is meant to be sunny but Sunday heavy rain

we went down yesterday and there was one shower which we piled inside for but it cleared up again very soon afterwards

I'm still up for giving it a shot? We could always retreat to Bonkers in cupar if it is absolutely chucking it down?!

PinkPussyCat · 20/06/2008 09:07

I am still up for it!

Last weekend they said it was to be wet all week... and it was only a bit cloudy with the odd shower! I do think they like to exaggerate a bit on the ol' weather. I think we should bite the bullet!

Need directions, though Dizzy!

dizzydixies · 20/06/2008 09:11

PPC here

tis very easy, come over the bridge and keep going straight down A92 towards Glenrothes/Kirkcaldy over 2 roundabouts - you'll see a big strawberry teapot sign on the RHS after the turn off for Balmerino I think and you'll turn left there

you want to turn left at Rathillet (don't worry if you miss it there is another turn just after) and keep following that road - Cairnie is after the big hill on the left hand side

send me an email if you like and we can swap mobile numbers etc just incase

PinkPussyCat · 20/06/2008 17:47

Ooh thanks for that Dizzy... didn't have the brains to check the website [numpty]

I will email you once ds is in bed and I get peace to do it!

PinkPussyCat · 20/06/2008 22:45

Dizzy have emailed you...

Night night the noo, I can hardly keep my eyes open!

dizzydixies · 21/06/2008 17:23

ladies spent morning at castle green and afternoon in friends garden and am possibly a little bit pink for it!!!! better be nice tomorrow [meep]

dizzydixies · 21/06/2008 17:40

ladies have checked the met office AGAIN and its supposed to start raining through the night and all day tomorrow

if this IS going to be the case can I suggest retreating to bonkers in Cupar?

will make definate decision in the morning and will email all who have emailed me already my mobile number

sodding typical after today was so nice too

anyone want directions to Bonkers just in case?

dizzydixies · 21/06/2008 17:47

dingdong I only don't have your email to send you one - are you intouch with Klaw about tomorrow?

PinkPussyCat · 21/06/2008 22:20

Dizzy have emailed you, mainly to say that I am coming on my own tomorrow as dh wants to do stuff with ds as he has been away with work a lot lately... So Yeehah I get to do something on my own for once!

I would need directions for Bonkers... sorry don't know Fife well at all.

Fingers crossed for the weather!

dizzydixies · 21/06/2008 22:36

have emailed you directions but fingers crossed we won't need them

you can chase mine about if you feel the need
