Is everyone still on? Who is coming?

Plan is:

Dry weather

Meet at 12 noon in the Winter Gardens near to Zooby's sandwich bar/shop.

Either buy food from Zoobys (excellent sandwiches!) or bring a picnic.

Eat in Winter Gardens or Peace Gardens. by the fountains, depending on temperatures.

If warmish remember swimmers and towels for children as they will want to play in the fountains and will get very wet! They love it.

Wet weather

Propose meeting at 12 noon at Weston Park museum. Bring picnic or buy from cafe or Starbucks over the road. There is an indoor picnic area upstairs - meet here?

If it turned nice afetr a wet start there is the park to play in anyway.

Please sign in if coming:

Hula, plus 7y DD
Katz, plus 6y DD and 4y DD

My 4 yr DS has had a better offer! I have to drop him in Crosspool at 12 and then I'll be down with you in town after that with the other two!

steffibabes · 24/08/2009 15:48

Gutted! I was going to come but now have a job interview at 1.30 that day.

Typical.

Hulababy · 24/08/2009 18:06

Sorry you can't make it steffibabes; hopefully next time.

Forecast for Wednesday is currently heavy rain

OP posts:
worzella · 24/08/2009 20:32

So will it be the Museum then?
Weather forecast looks awful!

PeppermintCream · 24/08/2009 20:56

I was hoping to make it, but have to see the midwife at 12.00. Hope you all have a good time, and I look forward to being able to come next time.

purpleturtle · 24/08/2009 21:31

I saw the forecast at lunchtime, and thought we'd probably end up at the museum - although DD would actually prefer to go there, so at least one of us will be happy!

Hulababy · 25/08/2009 08:40

When do you want to make final decision? Forecast still says heavy rain showers on the BBC site.

Looks more likely that it will be the museum. If it does come out dry they can play outside anyway, and there is the playground in the park next door, and the park opposite has a zip waire, etc. Just not water play.

Picnic or cafe?

OP posts:
worzella · 25/08/2009 09:14

prefer the cafe - but costs probably dictate picnic! Sorry....

Hulababy · 25/08/2009 09:16

There is a picnic area upstars in the museum which we could use. TBH a mix isn't a problem even if others do say cafe, as they do take out stuff which can be eaten elsewhere. DD loves a good old picnic regardless

OP posts:
Katz · 25/08/2009 09:58

was about to come and post guess its a museum visit then, but been beaten to it.

We'll be bringing a picnic i'd have thought

purpleturtle · 25/08/2009 10:02

I'm intending to bring a picnic. As predicted, DD very happy about going to the museum!

PandaG · 25/08/2009 18:23

picnic here too I expect. Looking forward to seeing you all!

Hulababy · 25/08/2009 18:34

Have picnic stuff

OP posts:
Katz · 26/08/2009 11:17

picnic all packed - see you in the picnic area at 12

Hulababy · 26/08/2009 18:05

Hi, had a lovely time. Good to see everyone

DD and Katz's DD1 are upstairs still talking, but playing nicely

OP posts:
steffibabes · 26/08/2009 20:40
