OK, Brula booked for FRIDAY 1st December!
For own private room! 2 things, we must arrive between 7-8 pm (no rpoblem, surely!) and if there are 10 or more of us they can go off a la carte for different menu (if we want).

So - who's in?

(Not stepping on yr toes, oh cheekboned one, this is as organised as I get!)

I'll be driving if anyone round Twickenham /Isleworth end wants a lift.

MrsRecycle · 11/12/2006 18:56

Fine Nanou thanks - nice to see you online again.

harktheheraldfoxessing · 11/12/2006 19:55

Nanou - I'm knackered and can't wait to meet this baby ! Really looking forward to seeing y'all on Wednesday night though. Think I'll get the bus, as there is no where to par around that bit of Richmond.

My PC is a bit better but very slow. Paddle managed to fix a lot of in on Saturday. Must get it fixed B4 Christmas hols, as I won't be able to rely on my work PC to access MN!!!

There is an NCP right by Pizza Rustica for anyone who wants to drive. I'm not sure what my status is. I forgot to ask nanny to bsit and now she has plans. DH will be home that night, but not sure what time. Bugger bugger bugger...

I might have to come home until DH gets home, then join you guys for drinks... There are after dinner drinks aren't there???

Nanou1 · 12/12/2006 10:13

quick hello. hoping to know shortly about tomorrow night re our babysitting arrangements... oh no uwila.... not you too... how is everybody today?

hoxohoxohoxo · 12/12/2006 11:59

uwila: what about that nanny website I sent you?
and, YES, please let there be drinks after
wonder how Paddle go on lats night? Just popping over to other thread to find out.....

uwila · 12/12/2006 12:30

I can't really stomach the cost for a babysitter I only need for say an hour or so. DH is coming home, but he's working in London and not sure if he'll be back for 7:00. Nanny is going out at 7:00. So, I just need to cover the time from 7:00 until DH walks in the door. And I'm not paying some £20 for that. Makes it a rather pricey pizza.

So, my plan is to go home, wait for DH, then join you guys. Hopefully it will be nice and early. Hopefully!

Oxo, how's the nanny hunt?

Paddle, So glad to hear you had a nice time last night. Fingers crossed for a happy New Year!

MrsB, sorry about the puky bug.

Nanny had step throat last week. Thank God no one else seems to have caught it.

harktheheraldfoxessing · 12/12/2006 14:35

Uwila - hope you manage to get down there tomorrow, will be nice to see you

uwila · 12/12/2006 15:32

I think I'll manage. Just might be late.

snowmum · 12/12/2006 23:21

Hello all. My broadband has been down since 27th Nov, have finally dug out our dial-up modem til we resume normal service next week. Anyway, I will be coming and look forward to meeting everyone tomorrow night.

MrsBojangles · 13/12/2006 09:57

not sure yet whether I can make tonight. DD still got puky bug and very mama focused and clingy and dh is coming down with nasty cold as well. ARGH

Nanou1 · 13/12/2006 10:02

oh no.... btw am game to give you a hand packing during the Xams hols. bet all this sickness business is not helping you getting organised. will miss you if you dont; come but completely understand... [hugs your way]

Paddlechick666 · 13/12/2006 10:02

oh no Mrsb! hope the day improves...........

was hoping you and i could sit and cough in unison!

uwila · 13/12/2006 10:38

Can you both sit at one end of the table so I can sit at the other?

2quokkasandapeartree · 13/12/2006 13:38

I have just had confirmation that dh will be home early tonight, so I'm afraid I will be joining you all! Is it still 7pm at Rustica?

Nanou1 · 13/12/2006 13:45

that's brilliant quokka! how are you getting there? thinking of getting the train from south acton hoping for the 19.12 and will be in rustica for 7.30pm. sorry can't be earlier than than as dh has to go and pick up great aunty who will look after dd. we could meet at the station if you want? or are you driving? very pleased you are coming!

Nanou1 · 13/12/2006 13:47

doh! yes 7pm at rustica!!!

ComeOyefaithfulVeneer · 13/12/2006 13:49

Have a lovely evening ladies. We should be exchanging contracts this afternoon (please all keep your fingers crossed), and moving on the 22nd (thank god I'm not hosting christmas). So will be able to join you for a meet-up in January.

Nanou1 · 13/12/2006 13:57

thanks and good luck with the house.

uwila · 13/12/2006 13:59

Oooooooo exciting. Fingers crossed for comeoveneer contract exchange. Fab news. Good luck. Can't wait to introduce the little Uwilas to their new neibors.

Nanny texted me to say her friend is sick and she is not going out any more so she can cover if DH is late. Yippee! Poor nanny's friend. But, hey her loss is my gain. I will be there at 7:00.

Paddle, do you want a ride? I can swing by and pick you up.

Nanou1 · 13/12/2006 14:01

yeepie!!! any news on mrsbigd...?
