...for a most excellent weekend!

Your organisational skills are fabulous and you are far too modest about it. Your caring about little things made a good weekend great. You made everything as comfy and enjoyable as it could possibly have been. The children have had an absolutely marvellous time and the for us adults the time just flew by.

And all the work done by your fairy helpers was fabulous too. And your dh is a star. Thanks so much all of you.

THREE CHEERS FOR BEETY - THE HOSTESS WITH THE MOSTEST!

I second anorak's comments.

It was a fabulous weekend. I am just sorry that we had to leave yesterday, but DP is off to Liverpool for work early tomorrow, so did not want to drive home today and then up there tomorrow.

glitterfairy · 22/08/2004 22:52

Thanks Beety but when can I leave????? Also am desperate for a bar of chocolate or three!

wobblyknicks · 23/08/2004 07:16

meandthomas · 23/08/2004 09:01

Thirded - a fantastic weekend - and the most relaxed household I have ever met!

Furball · 23/08/2004 09:57

I've re-surfaced from under my duvet this morning which is where I've been since Saturday. Still don't feel right. Sorry to have let you all down at the last minute and to have missed you all. Sounds like you all had a fantastic time.

fisil · 23/08/2004 10:01

Agree agree. Thanks again beety

Gingerbear · 23/08/2004 10:08

We were at a wedding, I hardly knew anyone and kept wishing we were at Beety's bash instead. Glad you all had a fun time.
How many were there? Would love to come next year!!

Kayleigh · 23/08/2004 10:31

A big thank you to Beetroot and her very lovely dh. It was a lovely relaxing weekend. Everything I hoped it'd be and more (the more being a chance to go shopping- special thanks to essbee, head of the escape committee )

Thank you. X

Piffleoffagus · 23/08/2004 10:49

Absolutely reiterate Beety's fabulousness and her cool DH, now my son knows what a man in the kitchen looks like !!!
DS had the best time too, he was the hardest to get into the car...
What an awesome bunch of people, I was so afraid that by meeting people the online bubble would burst IYKWIM, but it has actually made it better!!
Yay!!!!!!!!!!

DelGirl · 23/08/2004 14:02

bloomin marvellous

maomao · 23/08/2004 15:36

Glad that you all had a lovely time! You must be incredibly organised to put together such a thing, Beetroot!

scrumpy · 23/08/2004 19:02

Thanks for a lovely time it was thoroughly enjoyable, I especially cant get over the amazing chocolate marshmallow cake that your dh made, in company with other m/n we agreed it was nearly as good as sex....nearly!! Everyone was a pleasure to meet and thanks also to your helpers who made it such a great event.

Thanks for those, Madame B - they sum up the weekend very well! (Except for the lack of one of drunken revellers on trampoline in pouring rain in middle of night! )

MadameButterfly · 23/08/2004 20:47

I will try to figure out how to change the caption to put the names in. I will use MN names, but cannot remember who all the children belonged to.

There was not a group photo of all the DHs but I will try to find some piccies wth DHs on there.

Jan, the reason there is no pic of the late night trampolining is that DP took the camera with him when he went to bed.

DelGirl · 23/08/2004 21:10

Thanks for posting the pics MdmB . I look as awful as ever

Piffleoffagus · 23/08/2004 21:11

Beety!!!
How did she manage to duck the camera?
Hmmmm

glitterfairy · 23/08/2004 21:23

Delgirl dont be so silly you do not look awful but I do! By the way how are you?

DelGirl · 23/08/2004 21:29

Thanks Glitter but ohhhh I do . I'm not too bad ta apart from the endless self analysing that hits me after I've met new people but it'll pass. Everyone was so lovely, I'm really pleased I came. Have you left Champney's now? Did you stop off at Thornton's on the way home??

MadameButterfly · 23/08/2004 21:31
