Depending when (and where), I might be around.

PigeonPie · 07/12/2008 20:56

Lunch would suit us too.

LilMatchGirlInVictorianSqualor · 08/12/2008 09:16

Any preferences as to when?

PigeonPie · 08/12/2008 15:57

Thursday or Friday this week or Monday next for us

Jazzicatz · 08/12/2008 16:17

Monday would be better for me!

LilMatchGirlInVictorianSqualor · 08/12/2008 16:30

I can do monday but would have to be about 1ish.

vacaloca · 08/12/2008 20:53

oh, oh, can I come? I was wondering the other day if there was a xmas meet-up near here.

LilMatchGirlInVictorianSqualor · 08/12/2008 22:15

Course you can! be nice to see you again.

vacaloca · 08/12/2008 22:24

how's you and your lovely one VS?

LilMatchGirlInVictorianSqualor · 08/12/2008 22:26

Tired! lol.
He's too adorable, I can't get strict! Yours?

JackieNoCribForABed · 08/12/2008 22:30

I might be able to do Monday. Whereabouts? I'll probably be in Oxford (day off) doing yet more last minute christmas shopping. .

LilMatchGirlInVictorianSqualor · 08/12/2008 22:32

I think the city centre will be best, anyone know anywhere dc friendly? me & pigeon pie are bicester, vacaloca is near the hospital, wmmc is the other side of Oxford to me (I know that much!) Not sure about Jazzicatz.
I think Ruty wants to come too, I'll email her.

vacaloca · 08/12/2008 22:42

I was going to suggest Branca - very child-friendly (they even have baby purees) and good lunchtime special for £6.45 but I just noticed on the website they only do this special for tables up to 6 people.

Or Pizza Express? Very central and also child-friendly (crayons, balloons...)

Jazzicatz · 09/12/2008 20:26

I am in Wallingford

LilMatchGirlInVictorianSqualor · 09/12/2008 21:17

Is the city centre alright for you too Jazzicatz? (Are you 'Catz? or another person?)

PigeonPie · 09/12/2008 21:24

City centre fine for us - Pizza Express (if it's the one off the Covered Market) is ok but you can't take pushchairs upstairs.

JackieNoCribForABed · 09/12/2008 21:25

THere's a Pizza Express in the Prison bit, too, but I haven't been in that one.

LilMatchGirlInVictorianSqualor · 10/12/2008 09:23

Some of us went here for one of the meet-ups which was quite nice, child friendly, (they have annabel karmel for their junior dishes) it's all one floor and although the toilets are downstairs they have baby change facilities/disabled toilet upstairs.
Some of the food was a bit poncey though and quite pricey.
The pizza express in the castle complex is over two floors so we'd have to specifically ask for an upstairs table but I doubt that would be a problem on a monday lunchtime.

Jazzicatz · 10/12/2008 09:46

Tis fine for me

JackieNoCribForABed · 11/12/2008 08:15

Will it be OK that I'll be child-free? Both DCs are in school, and term doesn't finish till the Friday.

vacaloca · 11/12/2008 09:09

It's looking like I'll have to work on Monday so I don't think I'll be able to make it any more . Shame, would have love to meet you all.

vacaloca · 11/12/2008 09:10

loved

LilMatchGirlInVictorianSqualor · 11/12/2008 12:27

I don't think I'm going to be able to do Monday now either as things have come up.
