Here's a place where we can discuss the meet-up for all other members of our group to see.
First question is WHEN we can't do the meet-up just yet as Diddle is due to give birth! the second question is WHERE A few places mentioned were Midlands, Oxford, Milton Keynes and London. I thought we could do a list of important info (where from, how far you can travel, your availability and when due to give birth!) so in alphbetical order:

coathanger from Kent
diddle from Midlands due 8 June
mygirllolipop from Midlands due 13 Nov. I can make any weekend and any school hols til Nov except the first week of the summer hols (and another week as yet unknown in summer hols when we're in London so could make meet-up that week if meet-up was in London again).
Nikki from Leicestershire
Peepee from London
Pepper from Wales
Slinkstah from London due 22 June

Feel free (obviously) to add your name, where you are from, how far you are willing to travel, when you are available and when you are due to the list.

Oh and as a request can we do the name badge thing we were gonna do last time? Sad I know!

Oh and as another after thought (not v good at this and not v organised). I am all for 'family welcome' meet-up and I think others with new babies will insist on it! So DH's and DC welcome?

Sounds fun.......

I can do any city (preferably near a mainline station).

No intention of driving when I am not trying to conceive.Grin I have until the end of August!!!
Cannot do last week of July and first two weeks of August.

I work six days on and four off so hopefully will be able to make the suggested date. Smile

pepperpots · 24/05/2006 11:33

Right can do anytime apart from 14-16th july Smile
Will bring ds's too, would prefer not to go to london as it is almost guaranteed i will get lost GrinBlush anywhere else is good though Smile

diddle · 25/05/2006 08:05

Right, well i can travel, although have no idea when this baby is going to pop, so early Aug would be good, as i along with slink and lottie will be busy recovering from the births etc.
Would prefer somewhere no further from me than Milton Keynes.

FirstNikki · 25/05/2006 13:11

Can we have confirmation for CH and Lottie if they are coming and if so dates they are available, and how far will travel pls?
Then I will try and work a date around everybody. Then we can decide on a location/venue!

WHERE
Thinking about the distance from London to North Wales, the middle ground seems to be Coventry. That is also quite near Diddle and Lottie who will have had their bundles. It is also near HK, Nikki and myself. The only people who would have to travel any great distance would be Pepper and Oinker (and CH if she's coming), so ther comments would be greatly appreciated.
As Oinker would like a venue near a train station and it's a family welcome thing I was thinking a wacky warehouse/brewsters venue.

WHEN
Looking at a suitable time after the birth of Diddle, Lottie and Slink's babies, it would seem August is fair game. As Oinker and Nikki are away for some of August I suggest the 12th if I can have nods or shakes for that.

So all comments welcome.

Sorry oinker I tought you would be back by then. It seems we can only do 14 to 18 th Aug inclusive so if no-one minds we can do a weekday meet-up?

OP posts:
oinker · 07/06/2006 10:02

Oh no..Don't change it just for me.

We will have to do another one later on in the year.....

It's a shame really cos I would have had a wicked tan!!!! Smile

FN · 07/06/2006 10:09

pepperpots · 07/06/2006 11:10

I can do either midweek or weekend and coventry is fine with me Smile As long as its not 14-16 th july and 22 july i am good Grin

diddle · 07/06/2006 15:06

can't do midweek either, but please don't worry if i can't make it. i'll be back at work then, and as a childminder summer hols will be packed at my house.
can't say 100% if i could make it on the saturday so plan it for whenever you need to.

If Nikki isn't going away on the 19th anymore, can I suggest that date instead? And everyone is OK with Coventry so far?

OP posts:
oinker · 07/06/2006 20:41

I should be OK for the 19th...Smile

slinkstah · 07/06/2006 22:38

hiya all:)

13th - 28th is holiday for me well a week or a fortnight within these dates.

all depends on how i cope with baby and whether i can get passport on time etc! so don't change anything on my account as i have nothing booked.

FN · 07/08/2006 12:22

Hi There, 19th August might not be good for me but I won't know until BM sorts herself out as sdd2 birthday on the Monday so depends when we have her party either at the weekend or on the Monday as she was taking them away but will see. Will keep you posted....x
