Watford/Barnet/Enfield Evening Meet-up - It'll have to be post Xmas

[Kayleigh]

We are probably too late for a dec meet-up but I thought i'd start the wheels rolling for january -give us something to look forward to after xmas.
So how about THURSDSAY 12th JANUARY?
Let's keep it pretty cheap as I guess we will all be broke ! I will suggest Gritz in Barnet High Street (Pizza/Pasta) where some of us have been once before. If anyone has a better suggestion feel free.
So how many am I booking for ......????????
Would be lovely to have some new faces for the new year - I know chicagomum is now back in town ... any one else ???

Hi everyone - I'm in the picture now, thanks!

Anorak - look forward to the meet up in the summer then.

scooter if you're going to the January meet (this thread) I'll meet you there anyway!

Bump.............

bump

I used to live near watford....missed out humph.

Has anyone been in touch with 99RedBalloons or Melsy to see if they are up for this?

Hi Tabs, happy new year!
I have spoken to Melsy a couple of times in last couple of weeks. She is aware of date and meet-up. Am sure she will post soon. Will check if I have 99Redballoons email - if I don't pretty sure anorak has it.

Yes Kayleigh I do have 99redballoons email. Will do it now...

Hi Girls! How are you all Hope you had good holidays..

I would really love to come to this but I'm afraid I can't at the mo. DD is 2 months this week and still feeding loads in the evening/night, so the boobs need to be on tap I'm afraid. Haven't tried her on a bottle yet, but may think about it! Will talk to dh. Put me down as a 'no' for now and I'll post again if things change. Really looking forward to the weather getting better. We've been such a snotty household the last few weeks, I either want the weather to get really cold and sunny or for the Spring to hurry up and get here.. this warm then cold then wet then dry weather is really p*ing me off!

Lol kayleigh's comment about outweighing the pg mums... I can definitely vouch for my contribution on that front! lol

Christie, it's a shame you can't make it, will miss you. Hope you have a good night out on the friday.
99Redballoons, will put you down as a very small maybe

Anyone else ?

No news from melsy then?

just sent her a text !

Bump ...

Possibly me - I need to ask my babysitter when she comes on Saturday if she can do next Weds. I live in Friern Barnet with my 2 children aged 4 & nearly 2 & have recently come back from 18 months living in Moscow. Unfortunately husband is still there so it would be nice to meet some new faces. I hope to make it.

Im here at last , not been well this week laid up in bed with cold/virus. I would like to come if its not to late, havent been out much as have some news to share,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

expecting next baba 12th Aug , Ive been sitting here gaining courage to announce it , but wasnt sure wether to do so in ante natal bit. Feels a bit weird as have been posting in suedonim as had a little scare early on, but seem to be ok now, but VVVVVVVVV nausious (sp?), not a good mix with virus.

here goes posting !

Yippee - congratulations Melsy - fantastic news .

Sorry you can't make it Christie. For some reason I thought you were already on the list of yes people!

Jigger - new faces always welcome. of you living in Moscow - favourite city I've visited (well, joint with New York, but for different reasons!).

Melsy!!

That's fab!

Congrats on the news Melsy - maybe you can replace me in the pregnant people list.
I won't be able to come as I'm going through a pathetically tired phase at the moment. Generally in bed by 9, and not really fit for much after about 4! Also have a bit of a financial crisis going on at the mo, and can't really justify a night out.

Enjoy it everyone, and I hope to come later in the year (after baby) and meet you all then.

Hey, I'm still coming. Is it ok if I bring a friend? She can have Jasnem's seat!! She's not a mumsnetter, but does qualify by being a Mum, and is also potentially my birth partner this time round, as long as we're in the right place at the right time!! She's just got to double check that her dh isn't out that evening.
Er, I hope I recognise some of you... even when I did meet some of you, it was a long time ago!!! Kayleigh, are you booking it under Kayleigh, or mn, or your real name?

Ixel, it's absolutely fine to bring a friend. I'll book the table in the name of Kayleigh as there are a few new faces and they won't know my real name.

Jigger, look forward to meeting you.
Jasnem , sorry you can't make it. Look forward to seeing your birth announcement !

oh, and I wasn't ignoring Melsy's news, which IS totally fab. But I did see her over the xmas break so I knew already

Congratulations melsy

Ixel - hope you can manage to recognise me ok - has only been a few weeks !
