Anyone up for an Edinburgh meet-up sometime between the 16th and 24th Feb???

[FAQ]

As I'm up there for the week with DS's in tow and would love to meet some of you.

Would have to be a day time one as I can't rely on my brother to baby-sit too often, so I'll have the DS's with me.........

definitely all relative

anyone else?

And would those that are planing on coming like to suggest some dates???

I might be able to make it

come on happy

I don't know any of you northern lot......and I'm english - arranging a Scottish/Edinburgh meet-up?!?!?

I'll go if 2Happy goes!

now come on ladies - I don't want a thread full of "I'll go if x,y,z goes".....

I'm booking my coach ticket tomorrow so am definitely going to go........even if no-one else does (but it would be nice to have company LOL)

It'd have to be a thursday then, Liath!

(FAQ - Liath's my big sister!)

oh - I didn't realise that

Thursday is fine by me - I have a whole week to fill yet LOL

Would I be allowed to come and play too? Live in Fife but from Edinburgh, honestly

Mother - I know I probably wouldn't for the taxis. But I've no idea what my "final" plans are going to be - and there are old friends who I may visit who may decide on a trip out somewhere in their car......which would mean I'd need them. Plus I may decide to use one of the private taxi firms to pick us up as I'd prefer to know exactly how much I'm paying for the taxi in advance rather than sit and nervously watch the fare slowly rising as we get stuck in the centre of town

And besides - I'm going to pay for DS3 to have a seat on the coach so I can have him in his car seat on the way up - more chance of him sleeping that way and of being more happily entertained with toys - I really don't fancy an 8hr bus journey with a wriggly 8 month old DS sat on my lap LOL.

Cali - I'm sure we could let you come and play too

hmm - thanks for the info MF - may just hop into a black cab with them then and close my eyes until we get to the other end .

re the car seats - thankfully both DS1 and 2 both just have low back booster cushions which they can easily carry........and will carry where necessary . So that will "lighten the load" so to speak........and as for the rest.........I'll do it on a wing and a prayer - pretty much like how I used to travel back home from Edinburgh on the bus/train with FAR too many bags for me to carry.....just stand and look helpless - someone always comes and helps

Message withdrawn

I know they are - that's why I really excited to be coming up - haven't been up since........ermm August 2000 - I didn't have any children at that point - just a very large bump LOL.

Will be there, thursdays fine for me

so - are you coming MH????

Perhaps we should start a list of who is coming.......and decide on a time .

I think we've agreed on the Thursday 21st Feb.......

I'll be there, DD1 nearly 3 and DD2 5 months, will probably take train over,then bus to wherever we meet, still dynamic earth?

yes Dynamic Earth.

So far we have

Cali + 2 children
FAQ + 3 (eeek!) children

about to go off to bed too, but would 12 be an ok time to meet?

12 is fine by me - I have no "plans" set in stone as yet - everything is still in the "might do this/that/the other stage".
