everyone is organising a Christmas party, should we have a HULL one?

[fryalot]

and if so, who is going to help me organise it.

I don't mind putting in the legwork, but I don't really know anywhere so if it is down to me we'll end up in McDonalds with 5 hours to kill

and don't think you can ignore me, I will keep bumping this until someone responds!

Meh, not that fussed really, never have been about alcohol...I get hyper enough without it

How are we going to know who is who or shall I just stand on a table and yell 'is Squonk here?'

I'll be the one in the corner looking relieved, lost and confused to be without children.

I will probably have about seven empty glasses on the table with me (assuming I have been there five minutes ) and unless I suddenly come into money (or put even more weight on) I shall be wearing a purple dress.

We could always carry a copy of the Financial Times and say "the seagull flies at midnight" if it makes it easier

When is it again? I think I can come?

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

tis on 29th which iirc is the Saturday between Christmas and New Year.

Ok shall search for the confused alcoholic in purple ;)

Always get caught out by that one!

how will we recognise you?

I'm supposed to have decided to what to wear already?

Long brown hair, probably down due to excitement at not having a baby to pull it, freckles, smear of yoghurt on my shoulder

I'll think of something better later

twill be the yoghurt that gives it away

(and I only know what I'm wearing because I bought the dress in September to wear for a late summer barbecue that got cancelled so it's never been worn. If I don't wear it at Christmas, I never will and twill be a waste of blardy money )

indeed it would be. I own err...one skirt and two pairs of jeans. Lost too much weight post ds and had no clothes. Waiting for January slaes to buy more....but also kind of planning on getting pg again soon after so not much point!

well I have clothes in every size from 10 to 20 so take your pick!

(I need to sort out the weight issue - fat or thin will be ok, but up and down is getting wearing )

It was just sooo upsetting! I was all happy finally wearing my size 10 stuff that I last filled when I came home off my gap year but it kept coming off! When your new size 8 skirt starts falling down you have to either rant about how shops are sizing big and it may make some people feel happy but it makes it bloody hard fot eh rest of us to buy clothes or eat more cake. I generally choose the latter

hmm... so do I

But I guess I am double your size.

Does that mean I get to eat double the cake?

Oh defintiely.

Cake cures all ills.

just doing a quick pre-Christmas bump.

How many of us are there? At my last count there were five definites, two maybes and a probably not.

No idea! Have been trying to persuade accessorizewithbabysick but not making much progress.

helloooooooooooooooooo!!

i'm still coming, my friend is too i think, i'll be the tarty looking one.

will mail st g too to remind her

BUMP

Not long!

Still no idea what to wear but my coat is pretty recognisable. It is brown with slightly flared sleeves and green embroidery.

it's tomorrow, it's tomorrow, it's tomorrow

what time and where again so i can tell St G?

Damn only just found this -Hull is closer to me than London....never mind!!

Have fun girls!
