Any DERBY Mums out there

[SwtSimplicity327]

Are there any Derby mums out there that would love to chat, maybe meet up, do some retail therapy lol

I see you left this message a few weeks ago but I've just come across it! I'm in Derby - there doesn't seem to be too many Derby mums on mumsnet ...

hello not sure if your still checking this but i am in Derby i moved here from London in feb and don't know many people. I have 1 DS and one on the way (16weeks) wish i could NCT again up here so i could meet another group of mums.

It's because we're on the local bit!

I'm a Derby mum, as is Jes. We're around. Honest!

oh hello i didnt expect to hear from anyone you must be lurking around, what do you mean by local bit? sorry to sound a bit thick.

Go to the topics bit at the top, then scroll down to mumsnet Local. There's a bit of derby stuff on there. There isn't many of us around though. Jes is nice. She's got a houseful of munchkins, I have 1, he's 9. You must be missing London. There's so much to do down there. Derby's not so bad. Where about are you?

thanks Avenanap, i do like it here, just don't know many people, it was kind of a snap decision to move here, we bought an investment property up here and then decided to move here, so the house is not necessarily where would have chosen to live and a bit small for us 3 and impending arrival. We are near Abbey Rd near Friar gate (sorry don't know the name of the area) but it is close (drivable) to markeaton park which we love and also close to a little montessori nursery my son is going to 3 half days a week. I'm a sahm and DH works away a lot so am quite up for a meet up.

You're near us. We live off Ashbourne Road. I'm a third year paediatric nurse, I'm taking a break at the moment but am supposto go back in October. I'm going out on Friday for a drink or two with a couple of friends. You are welcome to come along. They are a nice bunch. My son breaks up from school on Friday so my days will be full of entertaining after then!

I'm being nagged for the laptop so shall be around later (after 9) if you wanted a chat.

oh well you are going like knowing me i have been a peadiatric nurse for 13 years now (wow i sound old i'm 35), my specialty is community children's nursing. I trained in australia.

would love to come out friday but we are going down to London friday afternoon as it is DS's nct group 3rd birthday party on saturday. But would really like to meet you all i found another thread that i think you are all on. so keep me updated. thanks so much for checking this thread today.

I'm around when ds hasn't hogged the computer. He's off for 6 weeks until the end of August (Oh joy!), it was 8 weeks for his hols last year so this is much of an improvement.

Can do coffee though.
