WEST LONDON MEET-UP THREAD - DECEMBER 2006 - from Acton to Sunbury everybody welcome

[MrsBojangles]

The brand new general chit-chat thread

i have not been to see Santa or the ice rink yet planning for this weekend when the niece and nephew will be around and i can also pick up some presents, last weekend we were there at around 5 and it was very pretty.
no doubt dd will scream at the sight of the fat bearded one

Glad Mon went well Paddle! Fingers crossed it continues!

We're planning on going to Kew on Sat tho it
will probably be earlier as we're due round at friends in the afternoon.

Just caught up with Sue's updates - it's really hard not to cry when you're reading it isn't it? Or is that just me?

morning all [fmsile]. pudding ; i did cry when i read sue's blog. but tears of hapiness for her; she'll be a great mum and i think daniel is a lucky boy and so beautiful they could spend his first birthday together.... oh dear am almost in tears again. see you all tonight but no doubt i'll try to catch up before then . dh being so good... still trying to sort out a babysitter for tonight but if unlucky he said he did not mind staying at home tonight so that i can come out and play. if its the case, i wont be very late as his big chum from uni is leaving london and all the best mates from uni are meeting to celebrate friend's bday and moving out of london. means so much to me dh prepared to babysit so that i can see you guys .

morning all

must catch up with SJ's blog. been so busy the last day or so.

nanou your dh sounds fab! i am really looking forward to tonight but a bit worried too.

i have a filthy cough (courtesy of dd) and we played cough and wake up tag with each other all night.

so dd is tired, fractious and clingy and prob won't like being put to bed by Grandma rather than a nice bf cuddle from mummy.

ah well, will just see how it pans out later i guess.

hope everyone's okay and those that are unwell are feeling better ;-)

oh no paddle ... not you too thanks re dh... we've had our problems so gestures like that do mean something don't they? as completely out of touch with MN, did not realise your night out with your dh was such a big step foward. well done!

Oh I hope my DH can come home early. He is going to call this afternoon with an estimated time of arrival. Everyone cross their fingers fro 7:00. (then I can go straight from work to Pizza Rustica) But, if he isn't going to make 7:00 I have to go home until he gets there, and then go to Pizza Rustica.

hi nanou, i shall be doing all i can to get there this evening....

just read SJs latest bulletin and very nearly blubbed in office! foxie says i'll still be hormonal as i'm still bf so i blame that!

god i need a nap LOL!

i'll text you the menu so you can order before you get there if you have to go home first....

if i get there on time myself LOL.

hey paddle, am not doubting for a second that you won't try your best .

I'm gutted Won't be able to come out to play tonight. DH just rang saying he's going to be working til late, feckin servers!

Was really looking forward to catching up with everyone seeing as I wasn't around for the last meet-up either. Oh well, C'est la vie. (is that right Nanou??)

oh no 2cute.... was so looking forward to seeing you. . will you be in london during xmas hols? why dont we day meet then with the kids? here is my personal email so that you send me yours annelj at hotmail dot co dot uk. we'll miss you tonight xx

That'd be great Nanou, will email you. Have a great time tonight, that goes for everyone else as well

uwila at hotmail co uk

too bad 2 cute: you'll def have to make Jan's meet up

Paddle -and anyone else with a cough - stay away from me and DRINK BENELYN!! will work well with the wine too, hehe

Is it just me or does Daniel sort of look like Sue?? and I'm NOT hormonal (despite panic preg test in Starbucks this pm. mental note - need to improve my aim). Really bad luck, I was buying the test in Boots in Twicks this pm (results of panic and pukey mornings rather than actual, you know, sex...) and who was behind me but my new boss. Oh dear.....

God, I need a drink after today.....

what a day! dd super charged toddler mode, dh late so no meet up (he was not that happy either)
and now dd took till 10 to fall asleep

glass of wine now

snow - you have my sympathy, hope your enjoying your wine. The highlight of my night was the ocado man!

Morning all - how is everyone today? Ds picked this morning to wake up at 5.30 so I'm feeling a bit spaced out (lots of wine & 4hrs sleep will do that to a person ). Poor thing's not well though so can't really get upset with him!

Hope everyone got back ok last night...

morning. at least I ahd a 'lie in' until 6.30 this morning. but had to get up at 4am to move to kids room as dh snoring so much I think the bed was shaking

am v tired; not hung over but v tired. I'm way too old for this social life mularkey

So I want the scoop. Where did you dedicated partiers go? What time did you get home?

We ended up back at hoxo's house, I think I got home just before 1am!

well, first of all we went to Park Avenue, the nightclub by teh bridge where we boogied until dawn. Quokka showed us a dance of a thousand nipples she saw at teh grand mumsnet do.
we all picked up a couple of toyboys (each), combined ages of 30 and much frolicking was done by all.

Then we sent skinny dipping in teh Pen Ponds.Thank God we are hardened lassies as it was a tad chilly.

Last thing I remember before I blacke dout is watching a really beautiful sunrise over Richmond Hill. Wow, really breathtaking.

oh pudding [fhmmm]

I've always wanted a naughty reputation, now you've blown it for me

Sorryyy...
