WEST LONDON MEET-UP THREAD - OCTOBER 2006 - EALING, ACTON, CHISWICK, KEW, RICHMOND, ISLEWORTH, KINGSTON ETC

[MrsBigD]

Here's the general chit-chat thread for October

Synopsis please on what I've missed last week! Too pre-occupied for various reasons to wade through all threads. Thanks

Bowila: sympathy winging it's way to you . and curses to bad work people [angry}.

but didn;t you get lovely long awaited for new position/title/promotion recently or is that all forgotten now?

I've had a manic day but unfortunately Embassy will only issue visa dated 30 Oct - so I'm booked on Tuesday lunchtime flight.

Oxo - what time do you want to make tomorrow? I have to get my tickets in the afternoon but other than that am free.

Sue I finally managed to find dd's old snowsuit it's 12-18 months. it's yours if you want to take one that doesn't drown lo-to-be.

promotion shmotiom -- two years overdue as far as I'm concerned.

I'm actually pissed off at one particular person. We have just literally swaped positions. And the reason we did this is because the client refused to renew the contract with him -- and now I know why: because he is a jerk! (my colleague not the client)

MrsBigD, are we still on for Sunday?

I'd love to take a look at it MrsBigD - times to meet up Sat or Sun (I could pop over to yours if thats easier)

Boowila - Tell him he'd better watch out or you'll unleash a gang of hormonal mums on to him! AKA the West London Mafia Mothers!

A very Happy 1st Birthday to baby Whizzi x

sue: I ahve emailed you, but say 10.30 at m&s coffee shop.
also - paddle - are you around so you can get these booster seat(s)? anyoen else want one?

I'm calmer today.

And looking forward to my night out with a bunch of American girlies tonight.

yep, i'll amble over too. assuming you'rre talking kew retail park m&s?

Feeling tired, grumpy and bossy this morning so here we go...

Spooky, Fizi, SJ... over to daytime thread please this is the GENERAL thread

uwilla - sympathies!

i think we will have another day of jumping in puddles, seems to make dd really happy

hope you all ok

You're so bossy mrsBD

yeah but not as good at wagging my finger as you are

So, shall we take bets on how long it will be until junior jonez starts to wag his finder at his mummy????

So, when do you return Sue? We need to get onto planning that baby shower / welcome home shin dig. (as if we need yet another thread)

Hi spooky,

I'm interested in the booster seat too. Is it one that is portable?

we can always already start the thread and start listing what we've got to 'unload' onto SJ junior

No no no no no... some elements of baby showers are not to be discovered by the mother prior to the party.... But, we could talk about when and where to host it.

and discuss the pressies covertly via email

guess what... I've got nada to do in the office so here's another West London Thread

SJ's babyshower to be arranged

can i pick ur brains ladies, the oppertunity has come up to move to east acton, right near queen charlottes hos. was pleased untill some people said "you dont want to live there" "what a dump" " its very built up" does any of you know the area, whats it like?

thanks xxxxx

next to queen charlottes eh? well it depends which side of it really. Generally East Acton isn't the nicest of places and you've got the prison there too. When I had to walk from tube station to QC there were some nice houses along the way, but tbh I wouldn't want to move there. Probably not all that bad, but I'm spoiled from Ealing proper

Everywhere in West London is "very built up"! Even tthe nice areas, its all suburban!

And BBC White City is very near as well. No, I don't think I'd live there either.... unless the price was good and it got me into Queen Charlotte and I was planning to have more babies.
