Still coming How WILL we recognise eachother?

sarochka · 11/05/2004 19:26

mmn I was thinking that too. Harman's suggestion was good - but what if there are loads of pregnant ladies. What time are we meeting again ? Am still up for it - takes about 40 mins from here I think.

happycat · 12/05/2004 13:12

from 7.30

happycat · 13/05/2004 08:28

what about if we walk in using or holding up a mobile phone and the lot already there hold up theirs or something like that.It seems to me it would draw less attention than a rolled p newspaper or carnation lol

If Harman is booking a table (are you eating??), then it will probably be in her name. That way, you could all walk in and ask for the table booked in the name of xxxxxx and will be taken to it by the staff.

happycat · 13/05/2004 13:26

no she's not booking it is one of those walk in and wait places.Good idea though

Sorry for the short notice but I'm not going to be able to make it tonight afterall, dh has a tummy bug and has given it to ds and dd, and although I have so far been spared (!) I don't want to pass it on to anyone.

Have a great time and hopefully join you at the next one.

Hi All

I am just posting for Harman as she is unable to get access to a computer at the moment and has been unable to for last couple of days, otherwise she would have posted herself.

She apologises profusely but she is unable to make it tonight. As you may have read she has been having a lot of problems with her DP and they have recently seperated (last couple of days). She feels that its very important that she is with her children at this time, as I am sure you will all understand, and she feels terrible to be cancelling at such short notice.

Hope that the rest of you have a wonderful time today and she will speak with you as soon as she is able to get access to a computer.

Take Care

How awful for her. I'm local to her and am happy to help out in any way I can. Do let her know that she can contact me for practical help or just for a listening ear, if she wishes. She has my email address, so, if you email me offlist (or via contact another talker if she can't remember it), I'll send my telephone number and address.

3GirlsMum · 14/05/2004 10:00

Thanks Freckle. She is hoping that she may be able to get online at her brothers house this evening, but obviously that would have been too late to let everyone going to the meet know what was happening.

happycat · 14/05/2004 11:55

Is every one else going I don't want to go if nobody else turns up a cacking myself at moment.How are we going to know other mumsnettes tonight.

MeanBean · 14/05/2004 12:59

Hi Happycat
I'm still OK to go if others can manage it.

happycat · 14/05/2004 16:41

tallulah · 14/05/2004 17:36

happycat · 14/05/2004 17:38

MeanBean · 14/05/2004 18:24

happycat · 14/05/2004 18:36

sarochka · 14/05/2004 19:06

babysitter not shown!!! Me not happy Too late to leave now. will look forward to next time and ask my mum to babysit instead. Dh at work. Let me know how it went??

kathykate · 14/05/2004 19:28

Dear kent gang

Hope it went well - I can't BELIEVE it, I only joined mumsnet today, and I live near Wrotham which is not far from where you are all meeting. Also, I just found out I am pregnant (after ivf baby) only to miscarry a few days later so could really do with some cheering up!

Let me know if you decide to meet again.

Happycat & Meanbean, lovely to meet you both & I enjoyed our get-together.

Sarochka, shame you couldn't make it- we thought you'd chickened out! Sorry about the babysitter.

Harman, sorry you couldn't make it- I was really looking forward to meeting you- but understand why you couldn't with everything else going on. Maybe next time.

happycat · 15/05/2004 10:53

I had a great time too. Prehaps we could all do it again very soon.Kathykate so sorry to hear your news it would have been nice to meet you too.Next time

Freckle · 15/05/2004 14:03

Yes, please, could we do it again soon as I couldn't make it?? Wednesdays or Thursdays are best for me.

Freckle · 15/05/2004 14:03

Oh and how did you recognise each other in the end???

happycat · 15/05/2004 14:56

Tallulah got there first and when I got there she was sitting outside watching out for people who had mummy cars.I walked straight passed her and inside and got a drink and there were no other single women so I went outside again and she and I both said mumsnet at the same time.Then we watched meanbean park and walk up the path and she said mumsnet by any chance.So you see we didn't need carnations after all.
