Sign up here

Me First lol

I'm in....looking forward to it. Have paid my deposit too

Tee - stop saying that about Poo and her being swamped with uni work. I'm going back to uni in January and you are freaking me out and making me think of all the work I'll have to do

I'm trying to remain in a state of blissful ignorance for as long as possible before I go back

Sorry TLC! What are you studying?

Sorry chilled, deposit is £10, but I would imagine you could just bring it on the night.

Tee - I took a year out of my social work training to have DS, and am going back to it in January. It's a mix of uni study and practical social work placements over 3 years. I have 1.5 years left to do. Noooo!!!

I'm still coming!!

So that's 5 for sure! I think I know of a 6th.

Chilled, Poo was going to ring and see if we can add, but I don't know if she's had time yet. Her course work is all due tomorrow and then she can breathe!

Sorry TLC...I'm sure it's not as bad as she is saying. Really. Poo is so prone to exaggerate. ::wonders if TLC is believing any of this::

Hi! I'm in Ballymena, have my deposit paid and am hoing to travel with Poo - must ask her though...

Have just been speaking to Poo - small lull in coursework but she's knee deep in housework today.

Looking forward to meeting everybody next week!

You were the 6th I was thinking of Bishoplyn!

So we have 6....are we still for 7pm? DH not impressed with start time

What's the dress code (over our thermals, that is)? Frocks? Jeans? Hot pants

Yes, 7. My husband not thrilled either!

I am wearing a purple crushed velvet shirt/dress over leggings and boots. I may even put some lippy on!!!

Sounds lovely Tee. I will have to get my lippy out then I suppose...has probably dried up since I had my last girls night out

I'm getting the train in so thinking of what shoes I can easily walk in from Vic Station to Vic Sq.

Got a new frock last week for all (two of) my christmas parties so should really give it an outing. Tho it will be worn with v thick tights or leggings (and wellingtons if this weather continues)

you all know what you're wearing!!! i haven't even thought about it.

I've got a mountain of coursework to do and I'm going to Donegal on Sunday, to see Santa, but I will still be there, even if I can't drink that much.

Booyhoo I only know because I was looking for something to wear to go do some work at night and had nothing that fit that wasn't jeans or maternity (which is too big)!

So the next day I went shopping and found the aforementioned long shirt/dress at Peacocks, which has just opened in City Centre!

I shall not be drinking! Just found out that DH is working a 1am-8am shift on Sunday morning, so I'll need to be sober on the night out and back by midnight to let him get away to work.

Just call me Cinderella, eh?

Still no idea what to wear though...

I am wearing a dress and boots.

Not my FMB's though unless you all persuade me lol

Small panic over the weather here.....

Hey Poo, good to see you!

I was wondering about the weather and those of you further out as well. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Today was the first day that Belfast City Centre really got any snow and it's not suppose to stick around for long, although the roads are a bit icy.

And my boots are definitely not FMB!

Awh Tee as you know I lurve my FMB's

I'll wear them at any opporunity

I know you do!

Is it still snowing?

i am at my mum's so think i will raid my absent sister's wardrobe and see if there is anything that fits me for tomorrow. hoping the snow disappears in time. I'm not drinking either as i have to drive so TLC we can be the bores in the corner

Boo I'll be driving too

Bishoplyn is getting plastered.

If she doesn't I'm not taking her

Is anyone having a drink tomorrow night? Well, I am!!! I'm walking!!!!!

Well I could always see if I can get a bed in a very exclusive hotel .....
