East Surrey/ Kent - Time to celebrate with SB34 ??

[Mo2]

In light of SB34's new SAHM status, I feel sure we should raise a glass (or ten...) and have another get together?

The last one at the Old Bell in Oxted was great fun, but a few were unable to make it, so anyone up for another one now?

Sykes, Eemie, Pupuce, Angelmother, Soupie ?(and everyone else - my memory fails me, sorry).....

Sorry, not the best of company at the moment. But hope you have a wonderful evening.

Oh Sykes - wouldn't you want to come - or is it that baby-sitting is a bit of a problem? If anyone deserves a night out, it's you... can't we persuade you?

No babysitting not a problem - just incredibly depressed and managed to humiliate myself at a drinks party last week so am reluctant to do the same again ....

Well I think you're good company Sykes.

I'd love to meet again - will be around till 31 July then away for two weeks, then around again.

I'm also reverting to SAHM status for a while so we could celebrate that too.

Yup - I agree, eemie, WE WANT SYKES TO COME. After all, you're allowed to be depressed with you Mumsnet friends - that's what we're here for

(please think about coming...)

Thanks, Mo2. And thanks for Saturday, Eemie. I'm off to France on Saturday to stay with friends so hopefully will come back with a bit more of a grip, and a tan, of course.

I am up for it.... a bit of a drive for me (30mins) but if I am free - I'll come

Is Wednesday enough notice? After that I'm away for 2 weeks but could do second half of August practically any night. Should we aim for somewhere near you sb34?

where are you sb34? More surrey than Kent by any chance?

I'd prefer later in August if possible, as I have people staying this week.
Pretty flexible on dates at the mo.

15 minutes means you must have been speeding, surely!

SB ... just butting in (can't make the get together as a trip to the UK for a mumsnet meetup is not possible at the mo ...)
But just wanted to say that I lived not far from your neck of the woods 8 years before moving to NZ ... Reigate ... then Merstham .... gosh, and to think you were so close all that time!!!

Congrats on your SAHM status btw ... and have a good night

Sorry SB34 - got a bit side-tracked with DS2's first birthday party, searching for a nut-free cake, and then realising I don't have any "me-time" (so that pretty much sums up my postings over the last week!).
Looks like we're aiming for 2nd half of August (Eemie's away til then...):
how about w/c 18th August? I can do any night that week: Mon Tues Weds Thurs ?
And where? Happy to try somewhere different and meet closer to you?
OK, who else is in for w/c 18th August, girls ???

No ... not me SB ... I am not that much into dogs and moved to Reigate in '93 ... then to Merstham in '98 ... then to NZ in April 2002! What a small world what with the love of Vodka Lime and Soda and living in East Surrey!!
