As well as the wino's night out, anyone care to suggest a date for a daytime easter fortnight outing? (I can't do Good Friday, tho') Smile

morning all - not sure if we willmake it. DS2 has awful cough and wheezy. Going to try to get doctors later to get him checked out. Surprisingly he virtually slept all night, but is very whingy and clingy now. Will let you know later.

Jodee · 03/04/2006 08:51

Merlin, hope ds2 is OK, he's had it rough, poor little chap.

Is the entrance bit before we pay or after? I was trying to remember the entrance layout - was going to go thru and pay, then just after that I think there are a couple of benches and some rideon cars and the haystack climbing area. Was thinking of letting ds have a little play while waiting just by the benches straight after the tills?

Delgirl, I think you are right about the weather, looks like sunny intervals, 10 degrees c.

Flamesparrow, I'm sure you will be OK with a travel system.

I don't think we will either. I really didn't want to post yawn yawn yawn yawn bloody de ja vu but dd and I have dreadful colds Sad. However, I do think the fresh air would be nice. If it's all outdoors, what do you think? guess we will want to go indoors at some point though. I was really looking forward to meeting FP as well!

I'd still like to come on Weds but don't want to pass on my germs so will probably miss that too. I've started taking multi vitamins today!

Sorry ds2 isn't well Merlin.

Flamesparrow · 03/04/2006 09:41

Droppin like flies!!!

So now it looks like

Jodee
Flamesparrow

Sparkler
Bunny3

Should I be paranoid that everyone's started leaving since I said I was coming? Grin

SPARKLER1 · 03/04/2006 09:43

Who's left then? Grin I shall be taking my dds whatever happens. We bought a season ticket back in the half term hols so I'm determined to get there this holiday to use it!!!
I'll wait next to the straw barn at about 11am - my dds love it in there.
Quite a lot of farmer palmers is covered - the only time you'll get really wet is walking between barns and on the tractor ride, oh yes and there's a bouncy castle outside too.

SPARKLER1 · 03/04/2006 09:45

Is Bunny back from her hols yet?

Merlinagain · 03/04/2006 09:45

Sorry Flame - don't take it personally!

Have drugged up DS2 and now he's sleeping in his buggy - but sounding like an old man bless him! Drs this afternoon, so will see how he goes. The problem is he is very whingy and clingy and don;t think I can cope with him and DS1 as well tomorrow!

However, am definitely up for Wed (will need some wine by then!). Get those multivits down you DG so you can make it too.

Jodee · 03/04/2006 12:00

Oh no, poor Delgirl and dd! Sad Hope to see you Weds if you are feeling up to it, and you Merlin.

I think Bunny is back today??

Flamesparrow, if not, it will be the 3 of us then! We've not met yet, do you know Sparkler??

Surfermum, enjoy your holiday, you and Delgirl can fight over Falmer Palmer some other day. Grin

SPARKLER1 · 03/04/2006 12:30

SPARKLER1 · 03/04/2006 22:40

See you in the morning!!! Smile

Jodee · 03/04/2006 23:10

Yep, 11 o'clock just inside past where you pay, by haystack play area - see you there, if you don't have to send out the search party, Sparkler! Grin Grin

ill be there - 11.00 i hope

Merlin · 04/04/2006 09:31

I'm wavering girls - DS2 had a good night, but now is coughing again and VERY clingy/whingy - you may see us - you may not. If not - hope you all have a lovely day in the sunshine! Smile

DelGirl · 04/04/2006 09:48

I want to come SadSadSad

chjlly · 04/04/2006 09:52

Hello all - have fun today!
I'm very close to walking out of work and joining you!!!

Merlin · 04/04/2006 17:58

Well, that was nice wasn't it? SmileAlbeit a bit chilly!!!! DS1 has decided that FP's is a fun place to go after all - he was asleep coming home - bless. DS2 is still coughing/whinging/clinging/nose running (delete where applicable). That wine is calling me .......

SPARKLER1 · 04/04/2006 18:04

I've just got home. Smile We stayed until closing at 5.30pm.
We did the last feeding of the lambs and dds had 3 bottles each!!
We are all absolutely shattered now and covered in straw and milk. Lovely!
Great to see you all again - although I don't feel like I spoke to anyone very much - too busy chasing kids.
Catj - are you okay? You left very suddenly.

SPARKLER1 · 04/04/2006 18:06

............and guess what? As we were coming out of the car park I saw Farmer Palmer! Grin He climbed over the fence from his house and was walking towards me. I came over all hot and bothered thinking he was coming to talk to me and.....
suddenly he stopped and picked up a bit of litter then continued to walk towards the farm. Wink sigh! I know he "wanted to". PMSL!

Jodee · 04/04/2006 18:22

Ooh Sparkler, was he dreamy? Delgirl will be green! Grin

We had a lovely time, glad of the hot drinks!Catj, hope everything is OK, it was lovely to meet you and your 3 eldest (and Flamesparrow and gorgeous babe).

Merlin, I had a sleeping ds too, he was shattered! Hope ds2 doesn't get any worse, poor chap. See you tomorrow!

You got your moneys worth then Sparkler!

Grin

Can we do another date for FP then when I won't infest anyone with my germs?

SPARKLER1 · 04/04/2006 18:56

Sure did - we had a lovely time. When the hot weather comes we shall be spending days like that all the time. It's the first time that I haven't taken a picnic with me today and I missed that.

SPARKLER1 · 04/04/2006 18:57

Aw Delgirl. We missed you both. Of course. I have my season ticket now so I shall be spending lots of time over there.
Do you think you'll make it for the indian okay?

DelGirl · 04/04/2006 19:04

Yes. I feel fine just didn't want to spread my germs. But i'm not totally selfless and will be partaking of indian tomorrow night Grin
