(Back from my travels.)

No problem Pennypocket.

Ski village sounds good Hula.

Just told dp about it - he's up for it. He's definately not a lorry driver!

dottee · 10/04/2004 21:19

Better just add that we're available after noon each Saturday. Dp's ds has swimming lessons until 11.30am. Have e-mailed you PP.

Hulababy · 10/04/2004 21:21

We can do pretty much any date I think as have no firm plans set (other than one weekend right at start of May) so pretty easy going here.

hi, i have a son whos 3 and have lived in sheffield for a few months. am really struggling to meet other parents! my little boy really misses his friends from n.yorks(where we've just moved from) and i miss human company!!

bobs · 10/04/2004 23:05

Thanks for the info. Hulababy. I'm Sheffield born and bred and will be visiting my Mum there next week so Ski Village sounds great for a day out.
Hope you all get to meet up and have a great time.
Don't be shy - you'll never make new friends unless you make the effort - I learnt that when I joined Sheffield Junior Chamber many years ago.

Hulababy · 10/04/2004 23:10

Hi maisystar and welcome to Sheffield! We have lived here for past 8 years, and moved right into the centre last summer and loving it. There is lots to do for little ones but I am not sure on P&T groups, extra.

Fancy the meet up?

Hulababy · 10/04/2004 23:11

If you do go bobs you will have to report back on it! Please.

bobs · 11/04/2004 09:58

Sorry - misunderstanding - my bad writing late at night! Don't live in Sheffield any more, but did for 30 yrs - just visit my Mum in school hols etc

Hulababy · 11/04/2004 11:16

maisystar · 11/04/2004 17:38

maisystar · 11/04/2004 17:39

Hulababy · 12/04/2004 10:07

Hi maisystar. My DD is 24 months (turned 2 on 5th April). We live right in the very city centre at West One, just off West Street.

Hulababy · 12/04/2004 10:08

Great to hear zanzibar. We are definitely going to take Mollie soon.

Pennypocket · 13/04/2004 14:14

Hula - checked out your photos today - they are great! Dottee - will write back soon I promise but glad u had a good holiday.

gingerbear · 13/04/2004 17:36

Hi all,
been offline for a bit, so just catching up.

DD (2 in June) would love the adventure mountain. Shall we pick a gloriously sunny day in May???

(I work Mon/Tues/Wed, so Thurs/Fri or weekend would be best for our gang)

love
Ginge

Hulababy · 13/04/2004 20:26

I work PT so term time I can only do Monday or Fridays.

Half term holidays for me is Monday 31st May onwards for a week, so can do anyday that week.
Or can do weekends - except for 8/9 May.

Hulababy · 13/04/2004 20:27

PP - I will have to re-email you. I got your e-mail ages ago and replied last week, but it bounced back to me 2 days ago!!! Been having problems with my e-mail provider and it's not the only one. Will resend it this week once I have sorted the e-mail settings out again. Sorry

zanzibar95 · 13/04/2004 22:21

Went to the Adventure Mountain today with my 2, 4 and 5 year old. They all loved it, we stayed for over 4 hours and I had to bribe them to leave!

Hulababy · 14/04/2004 08:18

Fantastic zanzibar Going to have to take DD (age 2) regardless I think.

maisystar · 17/04/2004 20:57
