O.K this is my first attempt so fingers crossed I reach one person at least out there.

Anyone fancy a coffee afternoon in Solihull, or the new Bull Ring sometime in January 2004?

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

You didn't mention the photoshoot WSM!

JanHR · 16/01/2004 18:49

What photoshoot WSM?

WSM · 16/01/2004 18:58

ROFL, we were 'scouted' in Mamas & Papas !!!! There were a group of fashion people doing promotional photoshoots for M&P in the store and they told us that the models they had chosen were hideous chubby old hags compared to us and begged us to be the main attraction in their piccies .....!

Well, that's ALMOST true . They WERE doing a fashion shoot and we were asked if we minded being 'in the background' for the pictures. It's hard work this modelling lark

Ailsa · 16/01/2004 19:45

It was such hard work walking round looking at prams and baby clothes!

Ailsa · 16/01/2004 19:46

We'd better start looking for an agent WSM.

WSM · 17/01/2004 11:28

Agreed , I'll get the yellow pages.......

So what did you lot get up to on your parallel Brum mmet up ??

JanHR · 17/01/2004 13:38

We met nutcracker by the cathedral then when to the coffee shop in Borders. THen we just wandered ru#ound a few of the shops before going to debenhams for some lunch

Ailsa · 17/01/2004 14:06

We went for something to eat at EAT, wandered round the shops, went for a drink in Debenhams cafe, wandered round more shops, then went home and I spent even more money, mostly on Jenny.

WSM · 17/01/2004 18:23

You didn't, Ailsa ?!! How long were you in town when I left you then ? I have to confess that I went and bought a pair of trousers and a t-shirt via Partners on my way home too ! How weak are we ?

Ailsa · 17/01/2004 19:27

I did! Gro-Bag and Swim nappy from mothercare for Jenny, David Beckham knee length shorts from M&S for Benjamin and a £10 deposit on Make it Groovy magazine for Rebecca. Nothing for me though. One of these days I'll remember to treat myself.

clairabelle · 17/01/2004 19:29

anyone still up for solihull at all?

WSM · 17/01/2004 19:31

Bless, were Rebecca & Benjamin pleased with their goodies ? I, sadly, had to exchange the clothes I bought yesterday as I rather optimistically bought them in a 12 BUGGER, but at least they don;t cut me half whenever I attempt to sit down !

WSM · 17/01/2004 19:37

I'm so sorry, I seem to be almost incapable of pressing the apostrophe key and almost always hit the semi-colon instead. The punctuation police would lock me up and throw away the key !!

mez75 · 17/01/2004 19:49

I'd still like to come along clairabelle any ideas on dates?

clairabelle · 17/01/2004 20:04

First day back at work, since Friday (I not avoiding anyone)

I'm please everyone enjoyed the morning, and pleased that WSM & Ailsa met each other and had a good day. It would have been great if we had met each other, but never mind, next time, I'll be more specific about the location.

I'm sorry to say, I can't do this Friday, My childminder had to alter the day's this week so he's there on Friday and I'm here... Boo hoooo.

I hope you all enjoy yourselves. I will do my best to attend the next one. Where-ever it may be.

Look forward to hearing from you all again soon.
