South (East?) London meet-up

Well, I missed the last one in Dulwich Park because of DDs (late) arrival. She's now almost 5 months so I think we are more than overdue for another one!

Any suggestion or ideas would be welcome, I would suggest waiting until after the Easter holidays as everyone seems to be busy over that time. So maybe late April/early May - revisit the park, initial meetup in the cafe, as an opening suggestion?

I'm easy with either week days or weekends, but would prefer lunchtime/early afternoons midweek as I have a 'nursery run'.

Anyone with me?

There's a meet up on 25th April at Tate Modern, see the Cheap Sunday thread, perhaps you could join us?

lydialemon · 27/03/2004 22:32

Thanks mammya, I saw it! Unfortunately I'm going up to Slough that day for a birthday party, so I'm going to miss it!

Anyway another London meet-up would also be a good idea! I'd be up for it anyway (diary allowing!)

Blu · 29/03/2004 10:05

Yep, me too. w/e, weds or fri are best for me.

lydialemon · 29/03/2004 13:30

Morning Blu! Or afternoon now I should say!

Well am starting a training course next week so only week ends good for me until December!

mammya · 29/03/2004 14:40

But don't let that stop you!

Blu · 31/03/2004 10:52

BUMP!
C'mon all you S londoners from the old E Dulwich meet-up thread....Catford to Streatham, The river to Croydon, it's practically a MN colony!

tigermoth · 01/04/2004 08:16

I'm not around except at weekends, but I'll keep looking in to see if I can make a meet up.

Runner · 08/04/2004 20:07

Hi - I'm in Beckenham with a 6 month old and have a friend with twins of similar age in Dulwich, so a meetup at Dulwich Park sounds a good idea. I'll keep checking to see what gets arranged as am fairly new to Mumsnet. cheers.

lydialemon · 15/04/2004 13:48

OK, Easters over so I'm bumping this up again!

By the look of it this one could do with being a weekend one, which is fine by me.

motherinferior · 15/04/2004 13:49

Yep, deffo on for it. Fridays OR weekend.

Tex111 · 15/04/2004 13:52

Definitely up for a meet-up as long as I can get there. Don't have my drivers licence yet. We're near Bromley and anywhere in Central London would work too. Don't plan a venue just to accomodate me though! If I miss this one I'll catch the next one.

Evita · 15/04/2004 14:37

I'd like to join you if that's possible? I'm in SE London, near to Bermondsey, can get to East Dulwich I think but not sure where the park is. Weekends are good for me. And weekdays except Weds and Fri.

How old roughly are the kiddies involved? My dd's 18 months.

Twinkie · 15/04/2004 14:46

I live near Bromley - have no idea where/ how to get to Dulwich Park though!!!!

Tex how many of you are their - I could always give you a lift!!

lydialemon · 16/04/2004 16:51

Evita, depending on when we do it I'll have 3 aged 6, nearly 4 and 5 mths. I think it will be a real mix. Blu and MI's are younger. When I get a moment I'll link a map in.

lydialemon · 16/04/2004 17:02

here's a little map, I'll try and do something a bit better later!

Nice one Lydialemon. Sounds like a weekend, doesn't it?
South Londoners, there is an NCT nearly new sale at the church near Sainsbury's opp Streatham Common on 24th April, 11 a.m (so i can't meet then)
and a show for 2-4 year olds at polka theatre, Wimbledon, 12.30 on 1st may (so I can't meet then, either!)

A picnic in Dulwich Park, Sun 2nd May?

lydialemon · 16/04/2004 18:07

The 2nd sounds good to me!

Blu, that NCT sale is next to the sainsburys I work in, 10 minutes from my flat and I didn't realise there was one! I think I spend too long in my car.....I never notice 'notices' IYSWIM. I might be forced to drag myself up there.

I'd love to join you. I've so nearly come to meet ups before, then gone all bashful - what a loon! Looking forward to it.

Toots · 19/04/2004 13:38

Picnic lunch or tea, d'you think? Just checking out whether I'd get my 2 o'clock nap beforehand...

motherinferior · 19/04/2004 13:38

Toots, where do you live?

Hiya! What plans? Where? Who? When?

Twinkie · 19/04/2004 13:58

I'd come if I can bring someone - would be scared coming on my own - do any other mumsnetters need a lift - and if someone could tell me where Dulwich Park is!!!
