As I'm guessing Des is probably back from holiday now, anyone want to start arranging a new meet up (for old and new).

Ashton Court was suggested.

Do I have any offers

BEach sounds good to me.

Can also do Ashton Court.

Will sit on fence and let everyone else decide.

City beach is easier for me too but am happy to fall in with majority as don't mind bussing it to Ashton court.....

Mind you, the beach does mean I can bury Desi's needles if she starts waving them at me!!

Desiderata · 01/08/2007 17:14

We're just waiting on Dixie, then? I think it's just the four of us at the moment ... but all are welcome!

I'm sure the Urban Beach will be easier for Dixie, too.

CrookshanksinJimmyChoos · 01/08/2007 17:17

I was in the Doctors today and saw loads of mums with babies and was thinking we should have a bigger Bristol thread.....maybe a lot of the Bristolian mummys are too coy to admit to being a Mnetter and just quietly lurk??!

I actually have a friend on here (not from Bristol though) who hasn't told me her nickname!!!

Maybe I smell....

Desiderata · 01/08/2007 17:19

Yes it's funny, isn't it? I often wonder if there are any in my village, but no-one's come forward as yet.

CrookshanksinJimmyChoos · 01/08/2007 17:21

I'll let you know tmw Desi....about your armpits that is...there will be no fadge/flap discussions.....

TheArmadillo · 01/08/2007 17:36

honestly you leave for 5 minutes and it all degenerates.

I am shocked and appalled

Are we mostly waiting on Dixie then?

CrookshanksinJimmyChoos · 01/08/2007 17:42

I've got Dixie's mobile no...I'll text her in case she doesn't see this thread.

Oooh gotta dash...DS woken from his very late pm nap -lord knows what time he will be going to bed tonight!

Looking forward to tomorrow ladies

TheArmadillo · 01/08/2007 17:43

whereabouts ar ew e meeting at the beach thingy?

OP posts:
Desiderata · 01/08/2007 17:49

Actually, Crook, I pmsl the last time I went there. I bought a pie, and on the box it said OPEN FLAPS AND MUNCH.

Well, me little 'dillo - you shall find me at the bar! The beach is pretty small, so I suggest we meet at the end of the boardwalk (honestly, it's really small). The bar is at the end.

Is 'fanjo' the password?

TheArmadillo · 01/08/2007 18:35

I'll be watchign from a distance working out who's siddling over to strange women and whispering 'fanjo' in their ear

sounds good to me.

CrookshanksinJimmyChoos · 01/08/2007 21:57

Oh I can lipread so I'll be looking out for the fanjo word!!! pmsl!

They do pies......

CrookshanksinJimmyChoos · 01/08/2007 21:58

Have just text Dixie....

Saw the HV today...she asked about my PND so I said well Mumsnet has helped me loads and she just went mmmm....made me wonder if she's seen the comments about HV on here!!!! roffle!

DixiePixie · 01/08/2007 23:15

Hiya

Just got Crookshanks' text (thanks Crookshanks ).

Erm... Where is the Urban Beach? I haven't the slightest clue

DixiePixie · 01/08/2007 23:22

Just done some googling. Think I know where I'm going now!

CrookshanksinJimmyChoos · 02/08/2007 09:28

Its pishing it down!!! Shall we postpone until tomorrow as its meant to be better then?

Desiderata · 02/08/2007 09:47

I reckon so, Crook.

It's supposed to clear later, but it doesn't look like a good day in general. My ds has got a rather mahoosive bug this morning as well. I'm swimming in poo and vomit here

DixiePixie · 02/08/2007 10:02

Poor little thing - guess he won't really be up to a day out in the rain . Hope he feels better soon.

Maybe tomorrow would be better. I'm free then too. Any way of getting a message to The Armadillo?

Desiderata · 02/08/2007 10:38

Thanks, dixie!

TheArmadillo · 02/08/2007 11:05

Tomorrow's fine for me.

Hope you're ds gets better desi. If it's the same d&v bug we've had here then he'll probably feel a lot better tomorrow.

Fingers crossed.

Desiderata · 02/08/2007 11:06

Cheers, ladies! See you all on the morrow.

Desiderata · 03/08/2007 08:46

Bummer! It looks like I might have to cancel.

ds is worse today, if anything. I've just changed five nappies in twenty minutes. I don't want to take the risk of him poohing everywhere on the beach, or running the risk of infecting your lovely dc's.

I'll keep you posted, but I can't see it improving by 2pm.

Watch this space ....

CrookshanksinJimmyChoos · 03/08/2007 10:05

5 nappies in 20mins! Poor DS! Hope he gets better soon! Am happy to postpone to a day when he's better?

DixiePixie · 03/08/2007 10:20

How horrid for your poor DS. Hope he has a speedy recovery.

Ditto about being happy to postpone. How is everyone fixed next Friday (that's my best day next week).

Sixer · 03/08/2007 10:30

Oh looks like i can come after all, popping off to check calendar for next friday..... Yep can do, but only between 10ish and 2ish (DS1 in Rugby training).
