oh come on ... you can have a medicinal glass can't you? unless of course there's a medical reason why not... and extra pounds don't count being t-total with having underage kids at home = impossible!

No excessive drinking for me either. Have to drive to Sunbury after the meet-up... and I'm afraid I'm fresh out of the brownies.

uwila · 08/02/2006 17:31

I think it's more that ars**oles at work than it is the kids at home that are responsible for my drinking. Oh, such a pity I have to drive...

Nanou1 · 08/02/2006 17:37

uwila · 08/02/2006 17:48

Lovely to meet you all..(and you again, mrs bd)

Will have to do another night out sometime - or when it's warmer maybe get the sprogs together.

uwila · 09/02/2006 10:57

Oh, that's a nice idea unicorn. It will have to be a weekend for my sprogs to make it, though.

Defo a good idea.
As with Uwila would have to be a weekend though.
Nice picknick in a park somewhere maybe (once it's warmer of course)

Yeah, like August. BBBBRRRRRRRRRRR.... I'm so fed up with winter.... GO AWAY NOW.

What about soft play? Snakes and Ladders in Syon Park? Or a trip to the zoo (in August). Kew Bridge Steam Museum?

MrsBigD · 09/02/2006 14:34

trip to the zoo would be very popular with dd and ds Which one though? London Zoo? Extortionate prices. There is a small zoo in Battersea I think that's not quite as expensive.

Any others require for attendees to have a car I can recommend paradise wildlife park near Enfield... small zoo but huge playgrounds and free merry go rounds

OP posts:
uwila · 10/02/2006 09:13

The only one of those I've been to is London Zoo. But I'm always happy to save some money and go to a cheaper place. Car travel is no problem for us.

trying2bgood · 12/02/2006 19:58

MrsBigD · 13/02/2006 06:44

yes we did have a good time gossip? Hmmmm...

OP posts:
uwila · 13/02/2006 11:09

Yes, had a nice time. I'm definitely interested in another one. And also meet-up with kiddies on the weekend. Shall we proceed with the zoo plan?

What about another evening meet in ealing... Say March? Can't do the 22nd as it is DD's birthday. But, I'd be good for just about any other night..... except the night MrsBigD is coming to to Sunbury for kiddies' single jabs. Speaking of which, MrsBigD, forgot when that is 06 March?????

MrsBigD · 13/02/2006 14:06

Zoo sounds like a plan... shall we make it a family outing special so the dads get to know each other as well? Also that way dh's can run after them and catch them in the zoo whilst we enjoy a chin wag

Yes it's the 6th March in Sunbury Uwila ... dd will be screaming blue murder all the way there I'm sure

uwila · 13/02/2006 14:24

Okay, if I say "So dear, would like to go to a mumsnet meet-up at the zoo with the kids and hang out with..." he will hear nothing after the dreaded word "mumsnet". I'm happy if other people's DH's want to come. But, wouldn't count on mine showing.

MrsBigD · 13/02/2006 15:23
