Cool Cats

bump

Sorry I can't make it (especially as the mini-meet up on 18/02 has fallen through). Will keep a look out for the next one.

Hi count me in as a possible DS is 6 months and I need to get out of the house lol
Is it the new place just before the turning for mothercare world?

hi sarah. yes i think that's it. just before you get to crown point. see you there!

just checking its still happening!
Sorry about the mini meet!!!
Can try again if you like..almost better now!

I'm still up for it - got it written in the diary so I don't forget I'm looking forward to meeting everyone too!

If I am feeling brave I might come to this...
I don't live in Leeds any more (but fairly close) so would be getting the train - it will all depend on how organised I am!

yes come on tatties. i'm being brave, it's written on the calendar now..

Tatties, I'm in wakefield so technically I'm hijacking the meet! Come along and we can be a couple of hijackers together (bet no-one notices we're outsiders!) Where are you?

Tatties - im in Harrogate so im a hijacker too!

Haven't got anything to say, just bumping so it stays on threads I'm on list! Hello everyone

Hello, sorry to be cheeky and crash in like this. I'm Kerry and i'm new to the area and this site. I have 2yr old and 6 mth old. I don't know any other mums around here yet and i would love to get out and socialise a bit! Is there any chance of me joining you?

Of course. Where have you moved from?

Thanks, we moved from Tamworth in staffs but i'm originally a brummie. Is coolcats like a wacky warehouse then?

yes. I've never been, it's quite new. I have heard good things tho. I think it's better for slightly older kids, I have a 16 mth ds (but he'll have fun anywhere so we're going to give it a go!). I'm originally from Suffolk, been up here for 8 years (still clinging on to my accent tho!) . It's hard to make friends when you are new in town, I remember that feeling well - so it will be lovely to meet you.

We lived in Huntingdonshre for a while, don't know if you're familiar with that area? Sort of near Suffolk. Dd is 25 mths and usually fearless. She can be a bit clingy around other kids though, and tends to shout 'mommy' from the top of unreachable places in wacky warehouse a lot! lol. Do you all know eachother?

Hi Milkymill
I am originally from worcestershire and my brother lives in Birmingham I have lived in Leeds for 2 years now
I went to cool cats the other day and DS loved the ball pool (was the only thing he could really do ) It was quite nice and the kids seemed to be having a great time.
The best part is that under 1's get in for free
Im really looking forward to meeting everyone x

Tatties are you getting the train to leeds station? If so I am walking in from there if you fancy meeting up and going with someone? let me know x

I think some people know each other, but I haven't been on a Leeds meet up before. I live in Wakefield, but use Leeds more really. (better shops etc) I'm looking forward to it, it's nice to get out of the house!!!!

Well it's on my calendar now too so I can't back out

Sarahsbump - yes I will be walking from the train station, it would be great to have someone to go with I'm not sure how early I can get there atm though. I shall check out train times and let you know.

What time are we planning to meet? Do we have to book or will we just turn up? (getting quite excited about it now!)

We said 9.30 but had to check opening times first, because it might open later. I don't think anyones checked yet though. Either way, it will be the morning And we can just turn up.

I might go next week with a friend, so I can check out parking etc!!!
Where do you live now Milky?
i am up for a small pre meetup meetup if anyone wants to as I wont know anyone on the day, so it would be nice to have met one or two beforehand!

I'm free most days, except weds and fri so if you want to meet up before the other meet then let me know. I'll keep watching the thread

ok, are mornings or afternoons best for you?
Where are you? I am cookridge so tend to do Whacky at Lawnswood or gingerbread cottage. Does that suit you?

Probably mornings are best, I have to pick up dd from school at 3.20. I am over in wakefield so I don't know either of those, but have car, will travel! Just let me know the address of either one and I will find it
