Hello everyone! I've just moved to Newcastle and don't know any other parents here yet. My son goes to nursery but I never seem to be picking him up/dropping him off at the same time as other mums so don't meet them - and I work full time so can't do the coffee morning etc thing. Anyone else in the area that would like to meet up on a Saturday, or a Sunday afternoon (I work in the church so can't do Sun mornings)?
Hope so!
Miranda

Just spent a lovely hour at the sealife center with Niceglasses and her wonderfully behaved DD. My own DS was a wriggly shouty monster!

Are we all thinking a daytime of evening big meetup?

niceglasses · 18/06/2006 17:44

Well, great to meet you too MT and your very cute ds - and just wait till you meet the 2 boyos...deffo not well behaved (well only some of the time. I like kids with a bit of spirit anyhoo.

Would be on for meet up any old time.

monkeytrousers · 18/06/2006 20:42

CarolinaMoose, formally of the family Mooncup? Do you visit often then? We can swap mooncup tips..not literally:P

monkeytrousers · 18/06/2006 23:05

(Not looking for reciprotory compliments NG. I'm a tomboy - end of Grin)

CarolinaMoose · 19/06/2006 08:51

we live dahn sahf so only get up there every couple of months. I'll keep an eye out for you and your ds and whisper "MonkeyTrousers!" at every woman I see with a nearly 2yo boy to see if it's you Grin

monkeytrousers · 20/06/2006 20:28

It's all gone quiet. Have we run out of meet up steam already?

LaDiDaDi · 21/06/2006 20:16

I was CarmenH but have name changed to keep up with all you ladies with fun and fancy names .

Still up for a meet up. Daytime prob best for me. Do we all wear a red rose or something?

monkeytrousers · 21/06/2006 20:46

Will you have your progeny with you?

LaDiDaDi · 22/06/2006 18:44

Would plan to bring dd as only 6weeks.

LaDiDaDi · 26/06/2006 12:10

Hi there, just been reading through this thread and I have found new hope, seems there is actually somebody else alive in Ryton!! I thought nobody around here had heard of mumsnet, nice to be proved wrong (not that I'm ever right about anything)

yankeemum · 08/09/2006 19:54

Hi all, new mumsnet user in north tyneside. Anyone out there still?

CarolinaMoon · 08/09/2006 19:58

I was in Ryton last week with the ILs - we couldda had a meet-up, Clairebear and MT!

yankeemum · 08/09/2006 20:12

Next time maybe ... err, where's Ryton?

CarolinaMoon · 08/09/2006 21:15

sorry, I'm half-kidding Yankeemum . Ryton's a village in the Tyne Valley, west of Gateshead (past Blaydon, if you know where that is).

I think there are a few Newcastle-area MNers though - hopefully one or two of them will see this

LaDiDaDi · 10/09/2006 12:48

I live in Heaton and have a 17wk old dd. There is a mumsnetter called HippyHoHo who also lives in Heaton (we go to the same mum and baby social group) and there are a few others. Popsycal is local and I think highlander is too though I havent met them.

Hippyhoho · 14/09/2006 23:27

Hi, I live in Heaton too, as Ladidadi said. I'll be back to work in a few weeks but would always try to make it to a shindig if I was availiable and there was something going on.
