We never had a new Feb Thread!

Anyways, anyone fancy a half-term trip to
Bocketts Farm

I don't mind driving - can get 3 passengers.

Foxie, there's a tea rooms you could occupy whilst ds and dd come around the animals/activities with the rest of us (or me if it's just us!).

SFX just thought - if I can't get my buggy in teh car with the two car seats someone could probably tkae it for me - paddle maybe? I'll try it in the boot and footwell tonight - oh god can feel new (used) car expense coming on...

ComeOVeneer · 19/02/2007 10:05

Right, so it is Brockett's farm this coming Thursday, meeting there at 11am, is that right?

sfxmum · 19/02/2007 10:14

which ever way is best don't worry if not possible we can amuse ourselves elsewhere if need be. i would take the little buggy or no buggy at all not really sure how things work in the farm

ComeOVeneer · 19/02/2007 10:17

Sue, it is just me and ds coming in our car so I can bring my 2 pushchairs if it would help with D? I have a lightweight maclaren stroller that we take on holiday.

sfxmum · 19/02/2007 10:22

ok am off to booggie tots text me if you want to meet up later, i texted you last night sue

sfxmum · 19/02/2007 10:23

COV thanks for offer i was thinking of taking our volo for dd 21m if it doesn't fit in sue's car be great to have yours many thanks

MrsRecycle · 19/02/2007 10:31

Right am back - won't be bringing friend and her ds so final roll call for me is:

Pudding, no car, Brentford
paddlechick666 car, 3 passengers, Isleworth
sfx, no car, Kew
Foxie , Kew 4 passengers but may go into labour and my DS wants to sit next to Paddle's DD
MrsRecycle, car, 3 passengers, Ruislip (M4/A40)
2Cute, car, 1 passenger (excl me), Whitton
ComeOVeneer, just me and ds, Thames Ditton

It makes sense if I pick up Pudding so I've just emailed her for her address.

So revised roll call will be

MrsRecyle & Pudding Ruislip/Brentford
paddlechick666 car, 3 passengers, Isleworth
sfx, no car, Kew
Foxie , Kew 4 passengers but may go into labour and my DS wants to sit next to Paddle's DD
2Cute, car, 1 passenger (excl me), Whitton
ComeOVeneer, just me and ds, Thames Ditton

ComeOVeneer · 19/02/2007 11:10

No problem. I will just sling it in the back of the car just in case.

ComeOVeneer · 19/02/2007 11:10

So where are we planning on meeting?

MrsRecycle · 19/02/2007 12:40

I guess we're either following each other (for those who are not sure where it is/don't have SatNav) OR meeting there at 11am.

ComeOVeneer · 19/02/2007 13:02

I'll meet you there at 11am as to travel together would mean me going the opposite direction then turning around again. Where shall we say the meeting point is?

i can probably fit 3 buggies in my boot - it's huge!

I can also bring my fold-up buggy - as discussed with you this morning Sue.

quicksmart buggy

it folds up really small and weighs 4kg - happy to loan to you Sue as we barely use it. Altho will have it back if and when we ever go anywhere in the Mini again!

Shall we meet at Foxie's around 10am and we can do luggage then?

i can in all probability get 4 Mclaren type buggies in my boot when it's empty which it will be Thursday........

Foxie, are you bringing your hospital bag ?

suejonez · 19/02/2007 13:29

Paddle borrow of the amazing microscopic stroller would be great on Thurs. If covcan bring a spare pushchair for sfx then I think we're sorted.

So do we still meet at Foxies at 10 or shall we just set off with the aim to meet there at about 11am?

suejonez · 19/02/2007 13:30

Think you must have my old mobile sfx I'm at home now until D goes to sleep around 3pm if you want to wander over for a coffee. Just turn up if you want to, no advance warning necessary provided you take us as you find us.

sfxmum · 19/02/2007 13:38

hi Sue well booggie tots was on half term hols so i went to kew for a walk about just home dd will prob. sleep at around 2pm so will leave visit for another day will email later

pudding77 · 19/02/2007 13:56

MrsR, picked up your email & have replied now

2Cute · 19/02/2007 16:56

Bit of a change of plan my end, is there space in anyone's car for me and DS (in car seat) as I need to avoid driving if possible?

foxabout2pop · 19/02/2007 18:23

MrsRecyle & Pudding - Ruislip/Brentford
Paddlechick 666 + Foxie,combined DCs (via Kew)
Sue + sfx, combined DCs (Kew)

just an after thought on the microscopic buggy.

it's a very cut down affair with virtually no protection.

not sure if your cocoon thing will fit it but suggest wrap ds up warmly and bring a blanket to tuck around him just in case.

ooh i'm getting quite excited now!

OP posts:
ComeOVeneer · 19/02/2007 20:18

WOuld love to help out witha lift for you 2Cute, but to fetch you from Whitton then go to the farm then do return trip would be impossible as I have to be home for 3pm to pick dd up from school. (The farm is 1/2 hour from me and you are 1/2 hour in the opposite direction.

BTW I got your email re ds's party, still planning on coming with ds and dd.

foxabout2pop · 20/02/2007 08:18

ooooh we're going to the farm!!!!!

MrsRecycle · 20/02/2007 12:17

Yes foxie - don't I know it!! dd2 keeps on asking are we going to the farm tomorrow.

2Cute I would give you a lift but have only space for one in the car now.

foxabout2pop · 20/02/2007 20:56

DS went to the Wetlands Centre today with his bestest friend and had a FAB time!!

suejonez · 21/02/2007 16:08

Cov are you still bringing a spare buggy in case we can't get SFS's in my car with the two car seats (I think its unlikely!).

I guess we're aiming to meet there around 11am?
