Are we having a Christmas get together ...just for Mums?

A few options:
Night out in town
Dinner out
Dinner and night in (I don't mind hosting if we all bring something)

Once we have decided on that bit, we'll need to think of some dates.

Come on ladies, lets get some dates sorted! Is everyone ok with indian btw?

MissisBoot · 14/11/2008 20:26

Here's mine...

1st Mung SP - can do but will be knackered!
2nd Mung SP
3rd Mung SP
4th Mung SP
5th Mung SP
8th Mung SP
9th Mung SP MB
10th Mung SP MB
11th Mung SP
12th Mung SP MB - will need to get a babysitter for this

However, as you know dh manages to end up doing overtime whenever any chance of a night out occurs so I'll probably try and get a backup babysitter!

MissisBoot · 14/11/2008 20:27

Have a lovely time in Paris btw - are you off for a romantic week sans enfants?

It's looking like the 12th, isn't it?

Anyone else?

I'll give it a few days to sort out numbers and I'll volunteer to ring up and book.

pooter · 15/11/2008 22:44

12th is fine with me. Ta for volunteering to book it sp.

purpleflower · 16/11/2008 11:52

I'm dropping hints to DP at the moment so I will see what I can do

SparklyPrincess · 16/11/2008 12:55

purpleflower - I normally use the hint that goes 'I'm going out on ... so you can have an evening with the kids!'

Saz126 · 16/11/2008 15:14

Unfortunately won't be able to make this. Hope you have a good night!

lucyfer2000 · 16/11/2008 17:07

Hiya! - looks like i've left it a bit late for my dates!!
Would you believe that pretty much every social engagement i have been invited to happens to be over that weekend!! I have to be in canterbury (twice), Bristol, Gloucestershire, london - and now also colchester!!Why does that always happen??

still can't actually decide what to do but will probably do Gloucestershire as i did kind of promise this ages ago. I'll probably go to work tomorrow and find out that it is also the night of my staff xmas do!

Hope you have good time !!
Maybe we can have another night out for a different excuse some other time!

MadameCastafiore · 16/11/2008 17:38

12th is fine for me - should be black eyeless by then, or can always do the very very smokey eyed look!

SparklyPrincess · 16/11/2008 17:41

Do we need to do it later in the month then?

MadameCastafiore · 16/11/2008 17:44

What for me?

No 12th is fine.

SparklyPrincess · 16/11/2008 19:13

No, not just for you - was wondering if perhaps we'd have more options later than the 12th?

I can do any night!

How about Friday the 19th?

lucyfer2000 · 16/11/2008 20:07

I think there will always be nights that some people can't come. You may as well stick with the majority!

Saz126 · 16/11/2008 20:55

Yes, please stick with the majority SP. We can think up good excuse to go out again in the New Year.

SparklyPrincess · 16/11/2008 21:21

Ok, will stick with the 12th.

I'll give them a call tomorrow, can probably confirm exact numbers nearer the time. Will err on more than less though.

purpleflower · 16/11/2008 21:35

DP has said that I can come if I can sell enough stuff on ebay he didn't say that it couldn't come out of the cars that we are selling on there

12th is good for me, I best get pumping to leave enough milk for DD.
