June 2005 Mummies - North meets South at last

[tribpot]

Hi all

As discussed, we are now gearing up for a Grand Junie day out in which both southerners and northerners (and even easterners and westerners) will be gathering together. As Lippy pointed out, Xmas will be difficult for all so perhaps January or Feburary of 2006 is the way to go. (Talk about forward planning).

Thoughts:

• assume we will be meeting up on a Saturday or Sunday
• all kids invited along with our lovely Junie babies?
• location. We think somewhere Midlandsy but needs to be accessible by both rail and car
• dates. Anyone got any dates they want to rule out at this stage?

Hope we can all finally meet up!

Are we bringing partners - could influence whether I come with one or two children.
I have nothing in my diary for 2006 but Saturdays are always better for me.

I think as most of us will have to travel some distance, and it'll be a weekend, partners should be invited too. Mr Tea and Mr Tribpot survived our meet in Cambridge unscathed

Hi everyone,

Thanks for starting the thread Trib!

We can meet on weekends, nothing planned in Jan or Feb - yet!
Not sure my man will want to come , no offence, it just ain't his bag (man).
Location - need to look at a map!
Venue - Decent child-friendly pub with indoor play facilities for toddlers and any Junie babies who happen to be crawling ??

Great thread trib

im deffinently bringing hubby, we can do most weekends in jan feb apart from the weekend the 20 th Jan eldest son 21 st birthday. wow i feel old now.

I can do any weekend really although my sister's baby is due 23rd January so if it's around then I'd probably have to give it a miss.

Not sure about DH, he did enjoy the last one but it definitely took some persuading.

at the thought of any Junie baby crawling! How exciting (and chaotic!).

count us in. will bring dh, need him to drive

Count me in too. Anytime is fine. Like Mrs wed, no sure about bringing DH. Once again, no offence at all to anyone on this site, but DH did need some serious persuading last time and isn't over enamoured by spending an afternoon discussing nappy contents, IYKWIM......

def february be good
dh will come along
make it somewhere we can spend weekend/overnight maybe.

MrsW, tell your sis to hang on til 25th Jan so her little one can share my birthday. (I'm sure that will mean a great deal to her! Also Robbie Burns' birthday, poss a bit more exciting, particuarly if you like haggis - which I do not).

Okay, so so far the consensus is for February, which sounds good. MrsW, do you want to aim for end of Feb so that there's no chance of your sis having just delivered? I guess she could go as far as 6th Feb?

If we make it February I may well be able to join you all which would be VERY exciting. Prob not the first weekend though. Don't arrange it around me though as we will have just moved back to the UK and so will be all over the place .

just had to say feb 14 is my second wedding annivarsary what about mid feb or week before?

I fly on the 8th Feb and move in on the 16th Feb after visits to various family and friends. As I posted before please don't arrange around me but I will be doing my best to be there .
