So nice to see you all today (Wiggletastic, RHG, PD, Girrafes). We had a great time and dh now knows you are all real!!

RHG and I went back to the park for a short while afterwards (my 3 were driving dh insane by then) and were chatting about meeting up again soon - wondered about how people felt about Pollok Park/Burrell sometime?

No ideas when but it was great today and ds wants to get his chance for a "proper cuddle" with PDs ds4!

Your DS will have to fight me for a cuddle with ds4

Am up for that, am off Fri, Sat, Sun. When its Summer hols can bring kids too - 7,5 and 2.5.

Fridays or weekends good for us. Pollok Park handy for us and nice swings for DD . Burrell cafe has nice cakes or a cream tea at Pollok House after checking out the highland cows would be good too.

Hi, ladies, I found you !

I just posted on the old thread, but we had a lovely time and are most certainly up for another meeting.

DS4 up for more puking on people cuddles .

Burrell/Pollock Park sounds good - off our beaten track so by definition interesting and good cakes, always a winner!

Any day is fine by me as long as mat leave lasts... DSs1 and 2 in school of course.

Hi all, sorry I didn't make it either for 10.30, but ended up going with DS later that day.

I have lived in Glasgow for six years and have been to Glasgow Green many times but until I noticed people mentioning here, had no idea there was another really cool park there. So sorry I couldn't make it but thanks for the info.

Hope to make it to the next one - am up for Pollock Park

RedHairedGirlie · 09/05/2010 21:04

Lovely to catch up wtih everyone again and what perfect weather.. I ended up staying on a bit longer with DD to watch the crazy bungy jumping!!!! ... I've jumped out of a plane before with no problem.. but there is no way I could be tempted to do that !!!

I'm up for Pollock park sometime too - sadly can only make weekends.. unless i pull a sickie ..

heavydutyjudy · 14/05/2010 19:20

hello all,

I'm a new mum based in Dennistoun but have car so can travel...it would be really nice to meet some other mums in Glasgow - are you all great friends that know each other well? How does this all work? I've done internet dating before, but not this!

My DS is eight weeks old and I'm an 'oldie' at 38!

giraffesCANdriveAcar · 15/05/2010 00:11

Welcome heavydutyjudy

SlummyMummyAndProud · 15/05/2010 21:33

Hi there,

I'm fairly new(ish) to Mn and would like to meet up also as I don't have many friends with kids.

Unfortunately I work full-time (boo!) so would only be able to do weekends.

You all sound like a nice bunch

giraffesCANdriveAcar · 15/05/2010 23:51

Welcome slummy

SlummyMummyAndProud · 17/05/2010 21:49

Thanks Giraffe

RedHairedGirlie · 20/05/2010 21:20

ahhh.. HeavyDuty.. now your making me feel REALLY old at nearly 40 with a 13 month old !!!

Slummy, am in the same situation working FT so can only make weekends now too.. maternity leave seems like a distant memory now..

Anyone free this saturday and want to meet for a coffee somewhere??

heavydutyjudy · 21/05/2010 19:58

thanks giraffe

sorry redhaired girlie

I think it's all the lifting, my back is knackered and makes me feel like my granny who had a hump!

PacificDogwood · 21/05/2010 20:12

Bet I am the oldest, though !

Hello, slummy and heavyduty

SlummyMummyAndProud · 31/05/2010 22:26

Could we arrange either

  1. a Saturday in Pollok Park (in fact you are all welcome to meet here and park as long as you dont at my weed filled garden!

or

  1. During the week in the first week of the summer hols? Our guys finish 25th June, we'r eaway that weekend at a festival (our first!) but tues-fri that week would be good.

Any thoughts?

Wiggletastic · 11/06/2010 10:02

A Saturday in Pollok Park is good for us or Friday at end of June good too. Bit late for tomorrow but maybe next Sat?

RedHairedGirlie · 26/06/2010 15:00

Anyone at a loose end tomorrow (sunday) and fancy meeting up somewhere??

Wiggletastic · 27/06/2010 14:42

Next Friday at Pollok park is good for us and Weegie can tell us all about her festival experience .
