Ooooooooh I love it there. Had my hen night there 10 years ago this month!!

Will go have a look at the thread

Right, folks, I'm back. Here's my hand up for Blue Hawaii. (And I have 4 Playtex Insulator sippy cups for Uwila.)

I pretty sure dh remembers about this meet-up, but ought to check.

Yippee... American sippy cups.

Hi Jura. (hijack alert) Hows the new nanny? Do they go out? I asked my nanny about her and she has not yet spotted her on nannyjob. So, presumably, she is NOT spending the day on the computer.

Just 3 of us????

Have just e-mailed Blue Hawaii to book a table for 6 people :)

It's because they found out on the other thread that you give your 4 year old a bottle and they don't want to hang out with you now.

hehehehehe yes probably... I'm such a bad parent

had a call from the Blue Hawaii, table is booked under 'mumsnet' and they have parking there for those who want to drive there :)

There will be four next time when I can come
But you can't all tell me horror stories about how my life will end when I get Junior home - had enough of that from everyone else. Why do people do that? If their children are such an unmitigated nightmare, why did they have more than one?

Because they are cute.

selectiv memory

fact: life WILL go on but in a different manner
fact: it ain't gonna be easy
fact: still time for times out with the 'girls'

It just gets so wearing the number of people who will do nothing but tell you the bad stuff (does this happen when you're pregnant?). Do they think I'm going to say - Oh now you've pointed it out, I won't bother then.

Shall I start offering to adopt their child if it's all so terrible?!

yes, everyone gives you unsolicited advice when you are pregnant, especially if they know it is your first. There's a pregnant woman here where I work. It is her first. She came over for dinner (and to take away my baby stuff) and she said "There is just one thing I want to know. How do you get people to stop touching your belly? Just because I'm pregnant does not make my belly public property." I laughed and told her to touch their belly back. It worked for me -- once.

re belly touching I had several answers...

1. did you see Total Recall? 'yes' remember that mutant?
2. careful it bites
3. so do you know what your's is going to be? boy or girl?

Confirmed so far for 11th May

Hi all! So what time is the reservation, exactly? It looks like I'm still on for Thurs.

booked for 19:00 onwards :)

Sorry I can't make it ladies - I've got to go away for work and won't be back until that evening. But have a drink (or 3) on me!
