brighton meets have been great in the past i have loved everyone and made some super duper friends. i cant see a mn xmas doo without kids and was wondering if anyone wanted to go for a meal and get ever so slightly drunk in brighton afterwards.

i miss very much my Brighton meet chums and i know there are lots more mums in the surrounding areas that am sure would have a good time.

i was thinking end of NOVEMBER then you can save your wage packets in december for father xmas and his poisened dwarves

SATURDAY 27TH NOVEMBER

can you attend?

Hi Girls. Sorry I never got back to you on the Brighton meet up it would be hard to get there on time as with working all day so have just organised a bowling night nearby instead on that day. Hope you have a great time and have a drink on me!

bigbanana · 26/11/2004 08:33

new-ish to this whole mumsnet thing - and a Brighton lass - gutted I'm in London this weekend, or I might have been brave and asked if I could gate crash your lunch...And I know how to make pointy boobs and a dead chicken out of a napkin...boo

May be a few minutes late as dropping ds off at 1.45.Can I drink with antibiotics?If not can I skip them for a day ,drink and then restart them?Not that I'm desperate or anything.......

spacemonkey · 26/11/2004 15:00

This thread makes me wish I was in Brighton. I want to make paper swans too.

unicorn · 26/11/2004 15:57

how posh is this restaurant? (ie what to wear?)

and whose table shall I say I am on to the waiter?

What if no-one turns up - apart from me? < sheer panic icon>

MABS · 26/11/2004 19:08

Unicorn - it's booked under name of Lisa Custardo and it's not dressy at all so don't worry. You'll spot me , i'll be totally dressed in Ann Summers with thigh length boots and a whip .....ooooh nooo that's tonight! sorrreee
