City Slickers - March Meet up

69 replies

Kayleigh · 26/02/2004 14:17

It would be nice if we did next months meet up before Metrobaby goes off on maternity leave (19th March). So how about Thurs 18th march 12:30.

If everyone is happy with Ciro's Pizza Pomodoro in Bishopsgate Churchyard shall we do that again?
It's a shame I couldn't make it yesterday as it seems I missed out on some rather good dessert

PS. Thanks for all your kind words re my aunt.

Ooh can I come? I'll have started my maternity leave by then so won't have to rush back to Canary Wharf.
Is Pizza Pomodoro still where it used to be or has all that been knocked down and it's now relocated?

prufrock, it would be great to meet you. Not sure where the restaurant was before but it is now in Bishopsgate Churchyard, two mins from Liverpool St Station. Think it is a new location as it mentions it on the website .
There is a link here

Is there anyone else out there who would like to come and ISN'T pregnant. Or am I going to be the only one ?!

Twinkie · 08/03/2004 14:04

Ooohhhh yes prufrock please try and come - would be great to ee you again - how is the itching???

prufrock · 08/03/2004 14:15

Itchy. And Scratchy. It's a good job I bite my nails because if I had any to scratch with I'd have no skin left. But I have only 6 weeks and 4 days to go - and only 4 more at work

Twinkie · 08/03/2004 14:17

Hoorah hoorah hoorah for you!!

I have just been told that I have a job with this boss until at least the month of June - do you think they would dare to make a pregnant woman redundant - It will be noticable by then and I need to stay on and take maternty leave really - will be utterly broke otherwise!!

dinosaur · 08/03/2004 14:20

I'm so looking forward to this!

Binkie - are you around to join us that day?

Sorry Guys - especially Metrobaby - I can't come today - I have been up all night - nose running like you would not believe (and have to wait till January to get it fixed now!!), tonsils super swollen and generally feel like I have been hit by a truck.

Hope you all have a great time and make Kayleigh eat 2 slices of cheesecake for me!!

Metrobaby · 18/03/2004 08:51

Is everyone still OK for meeting up today ??

Metrobaby · 18/03/2004 08:54

Twinkie - our posts crossed ! You poor thing - how awful for you - must be doubley worse being pg too.

prufrock · 18/03/2004 09:28

Yes I'll be there. Can I have an extra big space at the table because I am a beached whale?

binkie · 18/03/2004 09:39

Sorry, missed all this ... can't come because I do my reading visit at the local primary on Thursdays - can't disappoint my wee reading-partner. Love to you all

Looking forward to seeing you all later.

Sorry for the late notice - hope somebody is still there - but I can't come now - just had to pick dd up from nursery as the latest victim of the sickness bug.
