Oh well just us and the scummy student so far
Shall we say Friday? What time and where?

geordiemacminx · 08/02/2007 16:13

oooo wish i was able to come instead of being at scummy work!!!

Katy44 · 08/02/2007 16:20

Was going to check with you gmm - as it's now a week earlier.
Are you definitely not down for any of next week?

Indith · 08/02/2007 16:22

Okies Friday....morning tea and scone/cake in Vennels? Cafe Continental has a few too many stairs! 11?

Will you be at bumps and babies Tuesday then Katy?

And Nicola and Kiskidee if you can't make next week I am perfectly happy to eat cake 2 weeks in a row. Good for my breast milk don't you know

Indith · 08/02/2007 16:29

re reading thread KK you will be at work won't you? Cake 2 weeks in a row for me then!

(that is extra cake anyway....)

Katy44 · 08/02/2007 16:39

Vennels is fine - inside though I think! Shall we say 10am?
Don't think I'll make B&B as I have an assignment to write next week - the more breaks I have the less likely it is I'll get back to it. Friday morning will be a treat for hopefully almost finishing it, and then I'll spend the afternoon checking through etc.
Will be coming to them in April though when on ML (or by then my bump will be coming and I'll be joining it if there's room)

Katy44 · 08/02/2007 16:41

Oh you're confusing me now! I meant this coming Tuesday, I am off but really need to get this done. After that, yes, I'll be back at work.
Think I need to put stuff on the calendar as am being overwhelmed with AN class dates / meet ups etc!!

Indith · 08/02/2007 16:56

Argh muddle!- I meant that Kiskidee will be at work 16th, she said 23rd was during her week off..too many Ks!

Ok, so, def Friday 16th 10am Vennels for Katy and I at least.

Kiskidee and Nicola Friday 23rd? Or both Nicola?

Katy44 · 08/02/2007 17:35

Just a quick bump as I'm reading.
Sorry Indith - didn't notice the second K!

Indith · 09/02/2007 10:47

A little bump for Friday

NicolaDavis · 09/02/2007 23:55

Hi 23rd ok for me but where and when?

Monkeytrousers · 10/02/2007 00:00

Hello all, originally from Murton - east Durham coal field village. Now in Newcastle. Don't think I could make it to a meet up but just wanted to say hi!

Katy44 · 10/02/2007 13:49

Bump!
Nicola, glad you are coming? Vennels at 10am?
Monkeytrousers, nice to meet you

Katy44 · 10/02/2007 13:50

Indith · 10/02/2007 16:13

Bevspooner · 10/02/2007 19:53

Hi,
I'm from South hetton just outside of Durham, was just saying to my hubs that I need some baby buddy's.

My little boy's 6 months now and I'm giving up work in 8 weeks(and counting to be a full time mummy!!

I can't wait!!!

So can I crash one of your meet ups?

Bev

gingergirl · 10/02/2007 20:06

Bev have you tried the learning through play group at the community centre on wednesdays 9am till 11, and ask your health visitor about the Time Out group on a monday morning in the community centre 9.30 - 11. Sorry for hijack but thought you might be interested.

Bevspooner · 10/02/2007 20:13

Hi gingergirl,

I have been to learning through play once (as I work 3 wednesdays out of 4 in a month) it was good and I'm going this week.

Do you live near?

Will speak to the health visitor abot Monday morning though.

Just worried that when I give up work I'll become some kind of loner

gingergirl · 10/02/2007 20:25

Yes I live in the village, learning through play is not on this wednesday though as Sharon is on holiday, its back on the 21st. I normally go to it, speak to me if you see me I'm the pregnant one with my dd

Bevspooner · 10/02/2007 20:29

Bugger!!

I was looking foward to it aswell.

Did I see you at the baby clinic last week?

My little boy's called Oscar (his dads been taking him to learning through play)

gingergirl · 10/02/2007 20:38

Yes you did, thought it was you. I was on the next change table with my daughter. Don't worry about being a loner we're all very friendly. Got to go to feed my daughter now, be seeing you soon.

Monkeytrousers · 10/02/2007 23:51

Katy44 · 12/02/2007 07:32
