Cans so far are:

Surfer
Merlin
Sparkler

Can'ts are:

If we meet at Edwards then we could go to Hot Rocks, Valentino's or Ocean Palace. Not far from Corianders either.

Or we could make it Poole, have drinks on the Quay and take our pick from one of the eateries there.

Worst case scenario is a pub crawl and a kebab on the way home.

What's the place opposite Edwards called? I remember having nice mussels there

Is it the funny shaped Italian? That's Valentino's.

No, on the corner going up towards the winter gardens (pr what was the winter gardens).

So are we just meeting at Edwards and wandering til someone feeds us?

Hey Surfer nothing wrong with a pub crawl and a kebab!

We need to book wherever - reckon town is going to be packed tonight

I AM COMING!!!!!!!!! Sorry for not posting before.

Edwards is lively for a few pre drinks -
Liking the sound of Ocean Palace too - but we will need to book. I've gotta go out shortly so who's got the time to sit by the phone and ring around?!!!!

Well someone has to make a decision! Edwards at eight and wherever to eat?

Surfer - would you like to go somewhere before? Dh can take us out just after 7pm

I'm less keen on OP, but pretty much anywhere else would do me. I'm in for the morning - shall I just start phoning places and we go with wherever has a table?

I would but it will depend on when dh gets home from work. Shall I ring you later when he knows how he's doing today? Have you spoken to Catj as she would like to come with us?

Off out now - am happy to eat wherever we can book Flame!!!! What's the other Italian place opposite Edwards? just remembered - La Strada - been there years - that's usually pretty good. Or ......

Coriander
Hot Rocks (nice views!!!)
Red Panda (by the Pier)

Can't think of anything else over that side of town. See you all later.

That was the name!! Off to find phone book.

That was the name!! Off to find phone book.

I'll go anywhere they serve wine . Just see where you can get us in Flamesparrow. I'm off too now, see you later girlies!

That was easy - meet at Edwards for 8, few drinkies, then cross the road to La Strada for 8.30

(I needed mussels ).

I booked for 8 of us as we haven't heard from Bunny and I didn't want her to want to come and not have a place!!!

Thanks Flamey - that sounds fine. Surfer, Catj is going to phone me today so I'll see what she wants to do.

See you all later - fingers crossed that the weather stays good. x

Thanks for booking it Flamesparrow. See you later.

Surfer - I've just phoned Catj - she was riding her horse as I spoke to her. PMSL
She is going to phone me in a bit - Going home to grovel with her dh first. She's supposed to be giving her dd a lift out and hoping that he'll do it instead.

Anyone got any way for me to contact Delgirl? Not too sure what we're doing, and worrying!!!

just gonna email you.

Just like to say thankyou for a fab night out, wonderful to meet you all, altho still not sure on names to faces to nicknames.

I guess you could also say that this is my official ''I am back on mumsnet'' moment!

Hope to do this again very soon, and to consume much more wine too

thanks again.

Yay! Psychomum. Welcome home .... welcome ... come on in .... and close the door.

Lovely night as usual and we'll have to venture out again soon and go clubbing.

Good to meet you psycho & you again catj.
