At suejonez's
Friday 25th May
Fajita night

Everyone to bring whatever they want to drink (so feel free to bring a soft drink if you are driving)

Lets agree a list of what we need first before allocating out:

I'm going to try to make this easy and cut down on the cooking for all

lets assume 10 people

tortillas (3 each?)
cooked beef mince
cooked chicken
grated cheese
avocado for slicing?
guacamole
sour cream
salsa
fried onions
fried peppers
kidney beans in chili sauce (could be bought)
salad

Anything else?

hokey-dokes, foxie. just let me know and i'll come a-knocking

foxcub · 25/05/2007 12:41

MrsR - when do you go off line for the week?

Kewcumber · 25/05/2007 12:55

I'll also be fairly sober (I expect) so I can call the police if things get out of hand!

I have some taco shells (though can't remember how many) and have bought some plastic plates for deserts.

Don't forget the chairs people...

ComeOVeneer · 25/05/2007 12:57

I can bring 4 fold up stools if needed KewC.

foxcub · 25/05/2007 12:58

QC - do you need me to bring those two fold out chairs? If so, it'll be easier for me to drop them off earlier in the car as I'll be walking. R U at home today or at work?

Kewcumber · 25/05/2007 13:09

yes pls foxie - am at home

foxcub · 25/05/2007 13:11

Okey doke - will drop them round at some point after 3pm then...

pudding77 · 25/05/2007 13:19

I can bring a few more tacos & also a camera!

mellow2 · 25/05/2007 13:55

Ele,
Puds and I are in Brentford. How many can you fit into your car. Are you coming from Great West Road?

mellow2 · 25/05/2007 13:56

Actually, I mean can you fit any more into your car? I wouldn't mind a ride.

mellow2 · 25/05/2007 14:06

Ok, one last try. I was trying to say that it's a question.

You can tell I haven't been getting much sleep recently.

MrsRecycle · 25/05/2007 14:11

KC - I can bring some fold-up chairs - glad you reminded me!

Foxie - I might be getting a laptop (today or tomorrow) so will take it to the van as they have wireless there. Am rushing trying to sort things out for tonight/new job/au pair (who we have told can go tomorrow)/childminder (who goes into hospital the week after having ds)/broken dvd arghhhhh. Also forgot I have to pack (why did I let the AP go off for the day).

MrsRecycle · 25/05/2007 14:12

Oh I have a digital camera and I can load photos on photobox. I'll bring it along.

mellow2 · 25/05/2007 14:43

Sorry, QC. I don't have any fold-up chairs I can bring. Are we going to be outside? I could bring my picnic rug.

MrsR,
What do you think of Photobox? I had a recruiter contact me about a job there.

foxcub · 25/05/2007 14:43

Fab MrsR !!

QC you will appreciate this - I ordered a new trendy raincoat, which has just arrived. DH says (innocently) "why don't you buy one from that raincoat shop in Kew?"

mellow2 · 25/05/2007 14:46

Oh, I should bring your rug as well, 2cute. It's still with me.

mellow2 · 25/05/2007 14:48

Where do you get your trendy clothes from , Foxie?

Eleusis · 25/05/2007 15:05

I have a little Astra. I think the two car seat will fit in the boot, which will leave room for four, with the 3 in the back a bit smooshed.

Puds
Mello
Quokka
Nanou1

If you are at Quokkas house by 7:45, you are all welcome to pile in.

I'm leaving work at 6:30, if you are closer to my work then you are welcome to here for a 6:30 departure. (I hope this is okay with you Quokka)

Oh, and seeing how it's Quokka night, she gets the front.

Eleusis · 25/05/2007 15:07

If you don't know where my work is, CAT me or e-mail me at the work address if you know it.

Eleusis · 25/05/2007 15:08

Oh, and COV, you could always ride back with me on the 65 busto Kingston. Then bus/cab/train from there.

foxcub · 25/05/2007 15:10

Where is Paddle - is she OK???

2Cute · 25/05/2007 15:17

Boy I'm really looking forward to a child free evening....civilised conversation and good food!

I'll be driving so if anyone wants a ride from Twick/Richmond end let me know.

mellow2 · 25/05/2007 15:21

Ele,
We're closer to your workplace. I live on the river, across Brentford High Street from Nicky's place in Brentord Dock.

But I can't make if for 6.30pm. I have to wait for dh to come home.

Don't worry, we'll take the bus. Thanks anyway.

mellow2 · 25/05/2007 15:22

Sorry puds. I shouldn't be speaking for you.

mellow2 · 25/05/2007 15:24

2cute,
I think I'm actually going to miss dd tonight.

She's at the stage now where she's a little person of her own and her antics are incredibly entertaining for her parents.

I'm a bit sad aren't I?
