Next meet up, Tuesday 4th September.
During the day, either Botanic Gardens in Durham or the Slug and Fiddle near the Gala Theatre in Durham City centre.

Now for some random chat.
DS sang a song about bolognaise today. And DD walked some more. But still prefers crawling and using my nipples as handholds on Mount Starbuck.

Oooh I'm confused I can do wed - fri of w/c 22nd, next week I can do 17th or 19th

KaraStarbuckThrace · 09/10/2012 11:30

Friday the 19th is best for me and M.
Can't do the Thursday as DH and I are going to Ikea, and DD will be at the CMs on Monday and Tuesday morning instead. So that really leaves Wednesday and Friday for me, and I know M will be less busy back end of the week.
Be lovely to see you Juney!

Stupid phone

FrozenNorthPole · 09/10/2012 19:17

I can do 19th too x

VikingLady · 09/10/2012 19:22

I can't, I'm afraid - I have peer support training on Fridays Sad

Indith · 09/10/2012 19:37

Tis my bf group day but we'll see.

spiffysquiffyspiggy · 10/10/2012 09:08

Not sure, next week is hectic but I might be able to get off. Will have to see how the beginning of the week goes!

Indith · 15/10/2012 19:37

Hello!

KaraStarbuckThrace · 16/10/2012 11:20

Hello! Are you going to try and come along on Friday? What time is your breastfeeding group? Perhaps we can work around that?

I think so. Bf is until 11.15 ish so after that would have to be for lunch but the pennies would rather not. If I skip it I can do bogoff cake at the slug with dd. I have a growing stash for C, han't ralised how much dd had grown out of!

I'm lacking in motivation today. Dd watching how to train your dragon. Must do something later but what? Could go to the Arnison I suppose..ds2 needs fleecy sleepsuits and some shoe thingies o keep his feet warm in the sling.

juneybean · 17/10/2012 13:02

Does any one need a second stage car seat the one for 9months + ? My bosses are giving theirs away. Its a britax in a blue check pattern. No car crashes.

Indith · 18/10/2012 12:01

so what are we doing tomorrow?

SHRIIIEEEKPoolingBearBlood · 18/10/2012 12:04

Hi everyone I've found you :)

VikingLady · 18/10/2012 12:40

I will need one in a little while, I think Juneybean. V is growing so log she will be out of her stage 1 seat very soon indeed. Is that OK?

Annoyed that I have to miss another meet up though. But can't miss the bf peer support training - we have assessments this week so I can't pull a sicky make an excuse and skip it. Sad

Indith · 18/10/2012 15:52

Ah well Viking we will get you next time! Have a good time at training :)

I'm baby sitting ds2's best baby friend (his mum does choir at school so I take baby, she brings ds1 back. What do I do in approx 30 seconds when I run out of milk? He's chugging it down! I started with today's that wasn't frozen and had to defrost the spare.

Indith · 18/10/2012 15:53

All gone, he wants more I think. Good job they will be back in around 20 mins!

Indith · 18/10/2012 15:58

Started a thread for Night Out. Time to track people down!

juneybean · 18/10/2012 16:02

Viking I will keep it in my car until you need it, they would be sending it to the dump otherwise so they're happy to pass on.

Indith · 18/10/2012 18:28

Tomorrow? Anyone? Is it just the Slug in the morning? Am about to begin bedtime then I'm off out to have my abs tortured so may not be back on.

KaraStarbuckThrace · 18/10/2012 18:58

Just sent Indith a text to say I'll be at the slug at 10am.
M has had to cry off due to a non-baby-related-stupid-bank-crisis Sad

Have fun. Am teaching a tutorial later - although frankly all I want to do today is sleep. Turn out three hours of lecturing and walking up cardiac hill yesterday were enough to break me... Or maybe it was the hectic week all together.

Only have credit card today so may need to walk to Botanics for lunch with all that energy I don't have.

(Honestly, I'm normally a very cheerful person! Clearly one of those days!)

Indith · 20/10/2012 20:46

Are you feeling a little more chipper Leggy? Hope you've had some cake rest :)

So how is everyone? Hope you are all going to head over to the night out thread and sign up.

Does anyone feel like doing the pumpkin trail at Gibside over half term?

KaraStarbuckThrace · 21/10/2012 16:22

Indith, yes I could be! When and where?
