Following on from the South Yorkshire meet up thread and the rain check on today's meet due to rain -

Weather depending, we can meet somewhere like the Botanical Gardens.

Suitable days and times?

I can do Monday and Fridays, generally any time.

Hula, I can get to Meadowhall dead easy from here so if its somewhere someone of limited intelligence can figure out how to get to from there, I'd like to come if I may? Fridays are probably best for me but can probably slot in whereever

Lisa - if we go to Botanical Gardens you could get train/bus to the station or Meadowhall, then grab a tram to univeristy. Then walk from them - only 5 to 10 minutes from tram stop and pretty much from where I am walking from.

I can only do other days of week in school holidays, which is 32st May to 4th June.

lisa, i have to get tram from hillsborough so if you dont know the way from the stop to botanical gardens could meet you at tram stop?

does anyone fancy meeting this fri?

lisa, where do you live? (for some reason have got castleford in my head but is quite likely that ive imagined that!)

Lisa78 · 28/04/2004 16:15

Normally would have loved too (love food in forum) but have just started potty training, so stuck in house for whole weekend I will wave to you as you go by the apartments though

Lots of Dhs collaegues have been and all great reviews. Coincidence really as about 10 minutes ago Dh and I were just talking about the Thyme cafe and saying that we need to go and try it. Think you have to get there quite earlier and be a bit prepared to wait at times - is very popular. Been to Thyme restaurant and that was excellent.

Dh would like that! I can't do Indian food - the spices don't agree

Sorry I can't do this Friday Maisystar (believe me, lunch would be SO much better than being stuck in here potty training), but next time you are in town on an Monday or Friday post or e-mail and I am normally around

OP posts:
maisystar · 30/04/2004 09:32

hi

thyme cafe is fanstatic, great for taking baby's and little people to. they have those inflateable boster seats so you can sit anywhere, when we went we got a small portion of soup for DD which they did us for half normal price. she loved it. best time to go though is about 12 noon, not busy then.

hey we could meet there soon very yummy.
