I'm okay with it if Figleaf is. You can join us next time.

figleaf · 21/03/2007 14:31

Yes. See you tomorrow then gscrym and another time purplemonkeydishwasher

gscrym · 22/03/2007 08:59

I'm not sure what I'll be wearing but I'll be the one with the fawn dog and blonde child wearing a red puffy jacket.

What a lovely day it looks like it'll be.

Thanks for the walk this morning gscrym (and delightful DS). Biscuit is happily sleeping in the sitting room after his adventure. Hope to do it again when PMDW can make it too.

gscrym · 22/03/2007 15:01

Not a problem. According to DS, you are hereby to be known as 'Biscuit's Lady'.

I'm happy to pack the pair of them up and come to where-ever you walk Biscuit. Also pleased to walk around Callander Park when PMDW is able to make it. My available days next week are:-

Wednesday - All day
Thursday - After 1pm

If these suit either of you too (or anyone else who wishes a stroll) let me know.

Thanks for coming along Figleaf.

I'm off to check on my apple cake - I did an hours stroll, I've had exercise!

ooh! I'm glad you guys had a good time. Next week I'm free Monday, thurday and friday. (so far - but as we've seen things tend to pop up in my life!)

did the dogs get on ok?

OP posts:
gscrym · 22/03/2007 15:58

Thursday afternoon if you fancy it is fine with me.

The dogs got on fine. Biscuit is much better behaved than my pooch. Sally doesn't get off the lead as I'd never see her again. She'd scarper and lead a doggie rebellion up the back of Calley Park!

figleaf · 23/03/2007 11:46

Biscuit would be proud to be described as better behaved than another dog and I quite like being Biscuits Lady (it makes you want to use a little Britain voice)- thank you.

I cant do Wed or Thur p.m gscrym. Wed is DS2 P1 assembly so I`m going in a.m to help out and p.m to be a proud mum and watch him read the line "This is an apple. It comes from a tree". We have rehersed a big voice and holding up said apple - so excited!!. Thursday p.m is end of term so we pick them up early I think.

Shall we go for a day in the week after the holiday? (W/B 16th April) Perhaps we could all do that. As a recent relocator to Scotland and an official Billy-no-mates I'm pretty much free anyday that week.

there's talk of a meet-up next month here

I couldn't do that sort of meet up PMDW as I have the tots at school and would worry myself silly about not being able to get back to collect them. I`m also not that keen on meet ups at weekends when DH is off and we can do family things with the boys. Thanks for linking me though.

gscrym · 24/03/2007 11:55

I'm off the 16th, 17th and 18th of April so if those days suit, let me know when. I can't do Tuesday afternoons though as that's when DS goes to gymnastics and I sit in a cafe with a magazine, a cake and 1 hours peace.

figleaf · 27/03/2007 12:18

What about Tue the 17th gscrym. If PMDW wants to come we could do Cally park agin but if not we could go elsewhere.

gscrym · 27/03/2007 19:35

Fabby. I'm changing shift again but still have those days off. Same time and place as before?

purplebunnydishwasher · 28/03/2007 08:23

17th is good for me...i think!!

figleaf · 01/04/2007 19:25

School hols now - my two have argued non stop since it began. Not much time for MNet till after the inlaws go but I just wanted to pop on and say Tue 17th, Cally park good for me. Meet by the Kiosk again. See you both then

purplemankydishwasher · 15/04/2007 08:58

are we still ok for Tuesday?

gscrym · 16/04/2007 09:53

Yep, me, ds and pooch are looking forward to it. 10.30 by the kiosk again?

sounds good! it's supposed to be nice tomorrow. (fingers crossed!)

I'll be the tall brunette pushing the kid in a black bugaboo. may or may not have a very badly behaved dog.

OP posts:
gscrym · 16/04/2007 10:11

As said before, I'll be the blondish woman with the fattish lurcher shouting at my son 'to come back before I count to three'. Depending on the weather, he may or may not have an ice cream jammed in his face.

i wonder if figleaf is around today....

OP posts:
gscrym · 16/04/2007 10:16

I'm sure she'll pop by later.

figleaf · 16/04/2007 14:12

Hello!
Weather is super isn't it, see you tomorrow 10.30 by the kiosk.

figleaf · 17/04/2007 07:50

Sorry girls, my little one has had a terrible night. Rash, tears and temp - going to get him to the doctors today so will need to give the park a miss. I'll try to catch you next week perhaps?
