Anyone up for sarnie lunch/coffee on 20th or 21st Jan? Twinkie, Dinosaur and myself so far I think, but all very welcome and this is my first foray into the world of real live mumsnetters!

Can I come too ? I've got some Wagamama vouchers from a visit over Christmas, which I think run out on the 25th so would be perfect. It does get busy, but if we meet a bit later ie one ish, it may be easier to get a table. I'm pretty flexible though as my office just across the road !

Thanks Dinosaur, I've got a couple of long lunches that I am going to take in January and don't want to add to the list by relying on the Northern Line. I'll keep an eye on this thread and hope to make it to one of the future meet-ups.

I can do either - there may be a queue at that time though. Shall we meet outside or inside?

Twinkie · 19/01/2004 16:04

Anytime with me and if I get news of how things have gone I want at least one of you to stay and get smashed with me!!!

Kayleigh · 19/01/2004 16:07

Mind you will save me paying T & G prices!!

binkie · 21/01/2004 10:01

Would you mind a newbie?

Since you probably all know quite a bit about each other, I am: lawyer (of technical sort, sadly of little use re real people's lives), have ds (4.9) and dd (3.3). Ds has given me developmental anxieties and MN has been brilliant for reading about others' experiences and putting mine in perspective.

Kayleigh · 21/01/2004 10:07

Binkie, it would be great if you came.
We don't all know each other. This is the first time i would have met madgirl and vivat.
See you later !

Twinkie · 21/01/2004 10:14

Cool - C U There - I am the one with bad hair

Oh and if you want ot be really nosey Kayleigh/Dinosaur et al - you can see DP at his desk from outside pret (on Old Broad Street) - first floor last window along - short black (oing grey hair) - he he - he would freak if he turned and saw lots of women looking at him.

Looking forward to seeing you all. XXX

(Oh and no news yet )
