train? train ? I didn't think you did public transport, Nemo

It's dead easy, it's an hour's journey on the Norwich train that goes at 52 past every hour from Lime St;.

mts and nemo could come together!
mts, how on earth are you going to manage getting seven kids on the train?

Nemo1977 · 20/02/2006 22:55

no- usually just warrington and manchester, although sometimes does widnes.

mummytosteven · 20/02/2006 22:58

no, unfortunately. It goes through widnes and warrington. if you go from Roby Station, you would probably have to change stations in Manchester - I think all the Roby trains go to Victoria usually, and the Stockport ones from Picadilly. The Picaddily trains go through widnes and warrington, or stop at wavertree technology park.

Nemo1977 · 20/02/2006 22:59

mm may be better driving then as would be as much of a trek into town and out again as it would to jump on m62..lol

I take it this is with kiddies isnt it???

mummytosteven · 20/02/2006 23:00

yes, given we seem to be going to a soft play we might get a few funny looks without any kids

Nemo1977 · 20/02/2006 23:00

oh ok I didnt know it was soft play..besides think I prefer it to ds sometimes..lol

Hi,
Great - will be there on the 10th. What time's best? How do we recognise each other!!

Went to Funizuz yesterday, went to the new one in Chorlton the other week, getting into play centres these days!.....

mummytosteven · 21/02/2006 09:09

11.15 a.m. OK?

There's a photo of me in the depths of the Member Profiles topic, but I'm now about 1.5 stone heavier than that

11.15 sounds good.will that tie in with your train getting in mts?

OP posts:
mummytosteven · 21/02/2006 10:00

yes, my train should get in about 10.55, so I'm allowing plenty of time for any train delays/finding the place

fastasleep · 21/02/2006 10:02

Is Stockport near Liverpool then MTS and Nemo? LOL!

fastasleep · 21/02/2006 10:04

Heck an hour...when is it?

giggles to self at the thought of all the Liverpool ladies turning up for no apparent reason
