Any one fancy big picnic type meet up? Cannon Hall perhaps? Shall we throw some ideas about?

Here's mine - Cannon Hall, once school breaks up but before 18th August! Any weekeday fine for me in hols!

Phoenix/Gingermonkey etc- stop swearing or using " distasteful" language on your thread as my school system won't let me on because of it!!

fryalot · 29/06/2007 19:02

oh sorry, I didn't mean he took them... I meant he came with us

He saw me turning round to watch them and said "it's ok, I'm watching them, you relax" and it took him about three minutes to ask me where they were

j20baby · 29/06/2007 19:04

bettythebuilder · 29/06/2007 22:23

can I just say how excited I am by this meetup? (by product of having no social life now my best mate has upped sticks and defected to t'other side of t'Pennines )
Gingerbear, I went to Hull uni as well! How freaky if we know each other

Gingermonkey · 30/06/2007 17:06

Bugger - I can't do the friday now, BIL is having a 30th birthday lunch, so I can do the monday instead. Updated list below.
Bet - when were you at Hull? I was there between 93 and 96 (I think...!!!! It's soooo long ago!)

sarah consider yourself moved to monday . I think It's pretty much even at the moment. Do we have any more votes - monday at my bedtime (about 10pm) is the cut off date so I ned votes in by then for which day is best for everyone. Thank yoooooou!!!!

bettythebuilder · 30/06/2007 20:45

gingermonkey, you young whippersnapper, I was at 'Ull 90-93 -we just missed!

Gingermonkey · 30/06/2007 21:36

wrinklytum · 30/06/2007 21:45

Would have to get on train/ bus as driving test not til mid August.Is Roundhay park esily accessible by public transport?

Would be coming from Hull too

Waves at Squonk and J2O

Gingermonkey · 30/06/2007 21:54

it is yes. Let me find a link to metro website for you for bus times....hang on!!!. Also, how many of you is there? (you and LOs). I could probably get 2 in my car (if I steal DH's for the day) and pick you up from Leeds train station if you are interested.

Gingermonkey · 30/06/2007 21:59

you'll need to scroll down - lots of pages! But a lift is still on offer - probably easier for you (I am not an axe murderer - honest )

fryalot · 30/06/2007 22:03

wish I had more room in my car, WT. I can fit one other person in, but not if that person needs a child seat

wrinklytum · 30/06/2007 22:03

Ooh Gingermonkey,that would be lovely of you!!

There would be ds 3.5,dd 1.5 and myself.That would be really really kind of you

Only just seen this as have been flitting around in actice convos :O

wrinklytum · 30/06/2007 22:05

Oh sorry, Did you mean 2 altogether,not to worry,Iam a veteran of public transport,as long as I can plan journey in advance will be fine.

Gingermonkey · 30/06/2007 22:09

Oh dear - I can only fit 2 of you. Sorry

wrinklytum · 30/06/2007 22:13

Thats fine Gingermonkey,the thought was lovely .

PS I was at Hull Uni 91-95 so we may have passed each other in the bar at some point....

Gingermonkey · 30/06/2007 22:14

I was probably pi$$ed so I apologise for being sick on you if I was at some point . Or I may have fallen down the stairs at LAs and squashed you...again, I am truly sorry

bettythebuilder · 30/06/2007 23:15

Professorfilthymindedvixen · 01/07/2007 10:03

Gingermonkey · 01/07/2007 11:24
