Thought I'd start a new thread to save the old one getting too long and people having to trawl through loads of stuff.

From September my work pattern shifts slightly so I am now only able to do Mondays and Tuesdays, and can't do the first two weeks in September anyway. Weekends are usually good for me too, although I know that for some people they prefer to keep it as family time.

So for me I can do:

Mon 15 Sept
Tue 16 Sept
Mon 22 Sept
Tue 23 Sept

(or weekends 20/21 Sept 27/28 Sept)

I know that CnR won't be able to do that as her free days are the end of the week, and that Ronniebaby will only be able to do Tuesdays from those dates. If there are any other dates you want to do that are the end of the week please feel free to suggest as I won't be offended if I can't make it (though I will be sad ). Maybe an October half term date would be good for us all though???

Also if anyone else is wnating to come please post your dates as the more the merrier!

Not sure about 15/16 as my parents are going to be nhere then, but all other dates are fine by me if Tuesday, it needs to be an afternoon for me, Lauren has tumble tots in the mormings)
If it is a weekend maybe partners/hubbies could join us.

JanHR · 25/08/2003 11:18

Just spoken to mum, thay will be gouing home on the 15th so I should be able to make th 16th if that is the only day the other can make.

Ronniebaby · 28/08/2003 20:42

I have a problem now, as from 9th Sept, DS will go to pre-school 12.45 - 3.15, oh bugger.

Me weekends are fine, with or without DH.

JanHR · 29/08/2003 17:49

I can do most weekends but not 13/14 sept

Ronniebaby · 29/08/2003 21:35

Ladies, most weekends are fine for me too, sundays are probably better, but sat's are no prob either.

It'll be good to see the girls & kiddies again, it's been too long

Hi! Back from holidays. Was fab - Italy is brilliant for children!!! Mollie has a great time and has been spoilt rotten by all the Italians, even had little toddler boys coming up to her to hold her hands

Weekends should be good for me too, but I think we have friends coming on the 20/21 one. As far as I know we can do one after though. Is DH invited?

Other than that I can do Monday afternoons or Fridays.

Hope you are all well.

I will pencil in 27th right now. Picnic might be dependent on weather I guess. I'll wanr (sorry, tell) DH about it now too.

Sad isn't it. First evening back and already on mumsnet! We did have a good time though.

JanHR · 31/08/2003 21:45

WedgiesMum · 31/08/2003 21:53

If we do food then can we make it midday, if not can we make it 1.30????

Aaahh CnR is good to have you back - we missed you .

And JanHR you'll get in to trouble for killing with pens.......

JanHR · 31/08/2003 21:59

WedgiesMum,
I wondered what you were on about, until I read back my message.
That was obviously a typo.

Claireandrich · 02/09/2003 20:35

JanHR - I'll have a look and see how things are for around that time, etc.

Ronniebaby · 02/09/2003 20:42

Well ladies, it's all arranged then???

I'm good for that weekend, I'll see if DH wants to come, he can be a miserable ole git at times, so don't hold your breath.

Either way me & DS will be there, 12.30 is better, and Maccy d's sounds great. Count me in

CNR glad to see you back in the land of the living or mumsnet anyhow.

CnR · 18/09/2003 10:31

Are we still on next weekend? Just thought I'd check. We are if your guys are.

I have shortened by talk name too as I get fed up of typing it in at work!

WedgiesMum · 18/09/2003 11:29

I'm still on for it - did we agree a time though? and are we meeting at the ticket booth (Maccy D's if wet???).

OP posts:
CnR · 18/09/2003 15:45

I think we said 12:30 below.

Just spent lunch time in Sheffield Hospital having ECG!!! Been having heart palpatations. Doctors thinks I might be having some reactions to caffine or similar. Now on decaf tea Oh well!
