I'm back at work from the 6th March for Mon-Wed again, after my extensive maternity leave. Could I ask politely if there is another City meet up planned????

Any time will do me? As far as I am concerned, my diary is completely free

Can people keep bumping this for previous attenders NQC (if by any chance DS2 has cleaned up his act on the nap front), Frogs, Bink, Bundle, Pamina3 and also for whiffy to see the revised date?

Other City Mners also welcome - KBear? Soapbox?

Looking like China Delight unless anyone else has a strong alternative preference. Do we need to book CD?

HandbagAddiction · 24/02/2006 12:06

Sounds great and looking forward to it! For my benefit - just where is Mincing Lane??!!

Marina · 24/02/2006 12:08

Just off Fenchurch Street and I think Minster Court is the eyecatching pinky gable faux cathedral office block thingy. China Delight sort of at lower ground level.

CountessDracula · 24/02/2006 12:08

Between Fenchurch Street and Eastcheap with Next on the corner

NotQuiteCockney · 24/02/2006 12:09

DS2 is still napping inappropriately.

But as of September, I will be coming into the City regularly on school runs, at times completely inappropriate for meet-ups. I'm sure I'll be able to work something out.

CountessDracula · 24/02/2006 12:10

Yes China delight is under the hideous building with all the horses on the steps

Stand looking at building, to the left of the main steps (going up) are steps going down, it is down there (used to be Poons)

We orderd a set menu for 3 betwwen 5 of us last time and it was tons and v cheap

HandbagAddiction · 24/02/2006 12:11

Ah - OK I know where you all mean now. More convenient for me than the Victorian Toilet then, given that I'm based in Tower Hill right now!

NQC - sorry to hear that we'll miss you.

Marina · 24/02/2006 12:13

Do we need to book though CD?
Sorry about this time NQC, roll on September. You will trundle near me on your way back I think so may be a coffee?

CountessDracula · 24/02/2006 12:14

yes prob need to book I should say

NotQuiteCockney · 24/02/2006 12:16

I will be very happy to meet up for a coffee, maybe in the morning (depending on when DS2 goes full-time at the co-op) and certainly in the afternoon.

Marina · 24/02/2006 12:18

Right I will keep bumping for now and book the table for definites on the Friday beforehand.
12.30pm OK for all so far?

Novembergirl · 24/02/2006 12:30

Thanks Marina, 12.30 is fine for me. I am also very happy with the location, BTW, as I work just off Eastcheap!

HandbagAddiction · 24/02/2006 12:37

12:30 also good for me!

Wills · 24/02/2006 13:01

Let me confirm. Its 14th March at 12.30 Mincing Lane???

Wills! Why did I think you'd already decamped! and Pamina and dd3 too, the more the merrier. Be great to see you both (all) again...

Wills · 24/02/2006 13:15

(excuse me want to hijack thread for a couple of secs) Phew more weeks unfortunately. Supposed to be 3! We're buying a new house (hoping to exchange today) and we want to extend upwards. I want posh tiles so dh wants me to do two more weeks to pay for them! Not sure I can cope with an additional two though.

Sponge · 24/02/2006 14:07

Worth it in the end for posh tiles though Wills.
Mincing Lane looks good for me - easier than Liverpool Street as I'm near Blackfriars.

Novembergirl · 26/02/2006 00:06

Bump

whiffy · 26/02/2006 16:23

sorry have been away from the computer for a while due to eye ulcer (sooooooo painful). Please count me in for the 14th
