Glasgow meet-up - November or December 2006

[prettybird]

Thought I'd start at thread as Harrisey said she wanted someone to organise a Glasgow meet-up - and LieselvonTrapp said she wanted to meet me .

How about suggesting a few weekends in November and then seeing what interest there is. Princes Square (Buzzy Wares) has been fairly successful as a venue - relatively central and the kids can run around and have a good time.

So, how about 11, 12, 18, 19, 25 or 26 November?

Me - I can make all of those dates at the moment - although dh and I are currently trying to work out a weekend away to Paris, using his BA miles. If it's a Sunday I would be there without ds (6), as he has rugby.

I'm on holiday at the moment (this week and next) - hence the wee bit of time to come on and have a look - but it does mean that it might be a wee while before I come back and have a look. And I'm also rushed off my feet at work at the moment, so won't have time to keep bumping this once I'm back at work, so if there is interest, I iwll need help from the rest of the Scottish/Glasgow mumsnetters in co-ordinating the arrangements.

so who's all in for the 26th then?

i would love to get to a meet up but can't make this one. i live in falkirk and am quite new to mn (just been lurking for a while!) so hopefully when another one comes up i can join in.
have a great time those of you who make it!!

ooh another Falkirkian! Me too bobobobs!

i am really an adopted falkirkian (cool word!) as i have only lived here for 6 years but hey, both my ds and dd were born here, and my ds has bright red hair so i think i can call myself an honorary scot!
are you born and bred here? maybe i know you in RL!

i'm not from here either...
how old are your LOs?

ds is 4, dd is 3. how about you?

ds is 14 months. so unlikely that we know each other!
I;ve been here for about 5 yrs. and am only now meeting people. Mostly women with babies!

it is difficult isn't it? but it gets easier as you go along. if ever you fancy a chat and a cuppa, i'm a sahm and often around for soft paly sessions etc.
are they any other falkirk bairns that you know of on here?

"soft paly" sounds a bit weird, i meant "play"
of course!!

I'm in glasgow and would be up for it - looks like this one has maybe died a death though? I couldn't do 26th nov (visiting family in Aberdeen) but would be keen another time.

oops, sorry did i kill it? i got sidetracked chatting to purplemonkey!
would defo be up for a meet up if i can make the date.

I will try for this!!

Where and when

Sorry Bobs, DS and DH were finished theor bath so 'mommy time' was over!
I think there are a few bairns on here but i don;t know any in RL.
I'm always torn about meet ups. I'd like to go along and meet new poeple but Im horrible at small talk! i think that's why it was so easy to make friends with other mom's of babies - you have your basic 'how is he sleeping/eating etc' convos.

I can't make it now not working but DP's sister has offered to babysit so DP and I can go and see the new Bond movie at the pictures. Since we only have babysitters about twice a year we've had to jump at the chance (I'm not kidding either).

Can we have another meet up in Feb/March then?

I'm watching with interest, will try to come along.

Sorry, just realised it's next Sunday, ds has a party at 2, so can't make it. Will keep an eye out for the next one.

Yeah or Nay for this weekend?

Or has another Scottish Meet-Up bit the dust....
We really are crap at this aren't we

i'm out for this one i'm afraid. next one though!!

me too.

...yup. looks like it has bit the dust.

But Gomez - we have managed three this year - the Falkirk evening meet-up, the Edinburgh one (where I met you for the first time) and the Sitrling one. Plus I thing there have been some meet-ups in Livingston. Not that bad!

We'll try for one in the New Year.
