A few degenerates seem to have the idea that some of us would for some reason once again want to get together for some drink and inane chatter somewhere in London sometime around Christmas.....

So with that in mind the date of 29 November is being paddled around.

Grin and Wine and much fun to be had!

EVERYONE welcome.

Ooh I like the idea, but suspect the reality might scare me a little too much (not you actual lovely people, but meeting 'strangers' socially and being stuck on my own in the corner).

cardamomginger · 24/10/2014 10:18

Right. Well, if no one's going to put me on the list, then I'm doing my own list and adding myself to that!!

Mintyy

Pot
Fru
Viking
Whattodo
Blondes
Hearts
QUINT
Badkitten
UpWithWitch
Cardamom
Ladywithlapdog
Perpendicular
Packedlunch
Magimedi
Solasum
Mamushka
MrsTodds

Anyone else??

OhYouBadBadKitten · 24/10/2014 10:27

What happens with photos? I do try and stay pretty anonymous here, I don't mind meeting a few mners, but I don't want my photo on fb for the local community and friends and family to see.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 24/10/2014 10:41

That's the spirit, cardamom! Like Mintyy said, everyone is supposed to add themselves to the list Smile so thank you for doing a comprehensive one.

BadKitten, some photos do get shared on the FB group but as it is a closed / secret group, no one but people who were at the meet-up can see them.

Poirot (great name BTW) it's only scary for the first few minutes! Honest!

NotAnotherPackedLunch no worries about not being on fakebook. Once the details have been nailed down we can PM you.

Hold on, we've still got two vikings.

So the list is:

QUINT
Badkitten

Cardamom
Ladywithlapdog
Perpendicular
Packedlunch

If your name isn't on the list and you want to come, add your name and c+p it.

If your name is on the list and you don't want to/can't come, remove it and c+p.

Then we should always have a current list somewhere at the front.

Mintyy · 24/10/2014 11:46

Ah, I do like a properly organised list! well done Pot.

I am working today but will give some thoughts to a venue. Or did someone say limited had an idea?

DeadCrispyHedgehog · 24/10/2014 12:01

I'm in!

Chandos right next to Charing X station is very good and reasonably priced. From there you can get transport/night buses to almost everywhere in London too.

PotOfYoghurt · 24/10/2014 18:07

If anyone's coming in to London and needs an onwards-travel buddy I'm available, I live in SW London.

FrighteningVikingOoh · 24/10/2014 18:37

BTW, NotFootball; 'tis me - FruOla!

limitedperiodonly · 24/10/2014 18:41

I mentioned this place to FruOla.

I don't care though. It's easy for me to go anywhere in central London. The best thing is meeting up and having a laugh. The last time was with Fru, hearts and stealthpolarbear at a bar and then Carluccio's in Waterloo and it was fun.

That's particularly to Mamushka. I kept wandering around a very sterile bar in Waterloo going up to tables of women saying: 'Hello. I'm from Mumsnet. I'm looking for someone called StealthPolarBear who's arranged a meet-up.' They stared at me. It would have been very humiliating if I wasn't already used to humiliation through my job.

Luckily I found Hearts and Fru at the bar.

Go for it.

FrighteningVikingOoh · 24/10/2014 18:47

And not forgetting SweetBabyJebus that night at Waterloo, limited. She is luffly - and has a great sense of humour too!

SweetBabyJebus · 24/10/2014 19:11

Yay! Thanks for the pm Fru, and the complement

Totally up for another round ladies!

And NotFootball! My old drinking buddy! Will be lovely to see you again.
