what is the race for life route?

I'm in Pollokshields. For some reason my profile has disappeared so I have created a new one and will see if it "appears" when I post this.

nippersnappers · 01/05/2008 11:44

Nailpolish, I am ashamed to say I have no idea.

Around Holyrood Park I think, but I may be wrong, (I often am).

I'll dig out my bumph tonight and have a read of it and post the route here tomorrow so you all know what roads may be closed if that's any help.

Really starting to enjoy the training at the moment, which is worrying

nailpolish · 01/05/2008 11:45

oh nippersnapper its ok dont go to too much trouble!

maybe if it goes past whighams we can all wave at you. youd have to have "MUMSNET" on your shorts tho

but i doubt it does go that way

OP posts:
nippersnappers · 01/05/2008 11:49

Where is Whighams, I have never heard of it?

Though to be fair I have hardly heard of anything that doesn't involve wailing for quite some time now

I was going to get some t shirts with my Nipper Snappers logo printed on them, so you can spot me, but it will be easier to look for the knackered lass at the back, crawling on her hands and knees, and vowing never again.

its off charlotte sq

nippersnappers · 01/05/2008 11:55

In that case, I bloody hope the route doesn't go past it, cos thats way to far from the park for my liking

heididrink · 01/05/2008 15:35

Prettybird - am in Cathcart

prettybird · 01/05/2008 15:41

Go across Cathcart way on Saturdays to take ds to the Queens Park minis football.

We used to live in Shawlands and I used to work for a subsidiary of ScottishPower. (Actually, I still work for the same company, only we are no longer a subisidiary of ScottishPower). I actually work in the centre of town.

heididrink · 01/05/2008 15:44

I wonder if our paths have ever crossed

prettybird · 01/05/2008 15:55

We'll find out, won't we?!

Only other one i can think of is LuXander?

Bookthief came to the xmas meet up too?

LuXander · 03/05/2008 09:59

Hello, I've been without computer for a week, so have only just found this thread (thank you mawbroon!). I would love to come, I had a graet time last time, even though I had to run away. Looking forward to seeing you all .

Jambuttie · 03/05/2008 11:17

do you need a deposit for the table?

nailpolish · 04/05/2008 18:55

no, no deposit required

OP posts:
prettybird · 06/05/2008 16:04

That's good news. It'll be good to see everyone again. I seem to have missed a few pissmeet-ups recently

prettybird · 09/05/2008 19:23

Meant to mention - we definitely know how to spot trends (or Gomez does): the Sunday Times last week in its "Going Up/Going Down" column had Pink Prosecco as going up

We just such piss artists sophisticated gals!

gingerwench · 09/05/2008 19:40

I'm due with no.1 on 29 May so I'm thinking it would be foolish to plan to join you but I'll keep an eye out for future meets! i want to be part of the edinburgh mn gang!

prettybird · 09/05/2008 19:43

Hope it goes well gingerwench. We're not all from Edinutgh - we sometimes meet-up in Glasgow or Stirling. We are even considering visiting en pass Lilliput's dh's restuarant in Biagger!

I was all set to go, but just realised my relatives are coming over from the US that weekend,so I can't make it grr grr.

Have a few soda and limes for me.

prettybird · 12/05/2008 17:15

I think Lilliput has said (on the Ediburgh Festical meet-up thread) that she probably won't be able to make it as it is (IIRC) her ds' birthday the next day and her wedding anniversary the day after. that she'll miss another meet-up.

mawbroon · 12/05/2008 19:08

Ach, I just got an invite through the post today for ds's cousin's birthday party. 1st June 2-4pm. It would be very bad form indeed for me not to show up there, so I'm afraid I am going to have to bow out of this one ladies. Sorry. Hope you have a nice time though.

Lilliput · 12/05/2008 22:29

I'm sorry but Prettybird is right, I can't make 1st June. DH and I are having a night away . His birthday and our anniversary.
