Hello!

I am in Southport, have a 7 year old DS and a 16 month old DD, am a SAHM., but hoping to start working as a doula !!

would like very much to meet up with any other mums in the area....for a coffee or at a soft play place , whatever works best !! probably after Xmas now, as things seem very hectic at the moment !

hope there are some other sandgrounders out there xxxx

OOooh Tinker, you used to go to the Kingsway - when? I was going there around 1987-1992. Me and my (extremely camp male) friend used to do Kylie dance routines on the stage in the downstairs bar on a Monday night. Does that ring any bells?

MerryBiglipsmas · 07/12/2006 19:53

No, it does not ring any bells at all emsie! We only danced to cool music It would be the mid-80s when I used to go...

Tinker · 07/12/2006 19:56

DH would probably not agree to move, on the basis of me wanting to have coffee with other mnetters!!

emsiewill · 07/12/2006 19:59

Sounds like you were there a bit before my time. Probably best for all concerned really...we thought we were cool at the time

Did you go to the Academy, or the West End at all? How about the Brick (Scarisbrick Hotel)? Oooh, it's all flooding back.

Hope you're not suggesting I'm old emsie

Must admit, we used to get tanked up locally, pile into a taxi and just go straight to the Kingsway. God, we were classy.
