I need a kick start, I need to bond with my lovely big MOFo's, I need to eat, drink and be merry in person.

Who's up for a meet in July/August?

Littlefish (but you are having a party, aren't you? So not all bad).

Eeekamoose (ah, that's who you are!) all welcome. DCs too. If it ends up being at my house, I'm in Oxfordshire. Would that be doable for you?

Hello! Moved house and back in the land of the living (kind of). Full of cold and seem to be putting on 1lb a week, but never mind...

Yes, Aug 29th should be fine for me - I've been off work for a couple of weeks but can check for sure when I'm back on Wednesday - whereabouts are you, Jackie?

In Oxfordshire - cat me, and I'll let you know the details. That goes for anyone else who needs directions.

Fab. Um, pretty much anything would be welcome (except that Waitrose Delicatezze aubergine one). Trying to remember what went down well last time... all of it, I think! Some houmous, maybe the Waitrose pecorino, pine nut and basil one, I think people liked that one a lot.

We will MrsJC. We'll raise a glass (OK, probably a cup of tea or coffee) to absent friends.

If my bread making skills have improved I'll bake some bread...

Can fill you all in on my prescription for Reductil and how it came about (and whether its working) ... I keep wanting to call it Ritalin!

Dotty - are you going to bring your boys?

Twois enough (or whoever you are now!) more the merrier... will be lovely to see everyone. We're off on hols on Sat for a week and will be out of contact but we're definitely on for that Friday.

Np - good old fashioned caravan holiday in Camber, a few west london MN'ers going as well as DS, me and my mum. Fingers crossed the weather will be OK.

Sounds good - have fun. I@m back at work next week, so I'd expect the weather to improve (as it's been completely cr@p all the time I've been off).

What time are you meeting? Our party has moved, but I still need to pick up dd from my parents. However, if I can persuade them to meet me in Oxford, there's just a chance we can drop in for a cup of coffee.

JackieNo · 14/08/2008 09:19

Ooh - that would be fab, Littlefish. Don't think we've set any particular time yet - I was going to say, as last time, arrive any time between about 10.30 and in time for lunch - would that work for you?

Report
Littlefish · 14/08/2008 09:21

Not sure until I've spoken to my parents. I'll just keep watching this thread and let you know nearer the time if that's alright.

Report
JackieNo · 14/08/2008 09:24

Yes absolutely - it would be great if you could pop in.

Report
JackieNo · 21/08/2008 22:38

So, I've lost track a bit. Who have we got?

Me plus DS and DD
Tigerfeet plus DD
Kewcumber plus DS
Dottydot (plus ?)
Eekamoose? (plus?)
Wigwambam plus DD?
Littlefish? Plus DD?
Schneebly? Plus?

Any more? All MoFos (lapsed or current, actually we're all a bit lapsed atm) welcome.

JackieNo - I won't know until the last minute. It just depends on how dd gets on with her grandparents and how long she stays.

Please could you e-mail (or CAT) me with your contact details so I can let you know later next week.

No problem Littlefish - even if you just turn up without letting us know in advance, you (and DD if she's there too) will be welcomed with open arms. Will email you.

hello - I'm back and exhausted (I need a holiday) I'm going to try making bread tomorrow and if it works I'll bring some bread with me on Friday and perhaps some fruit and some deli type stuff.

Hi Kew - hope you had a good time (if exhausting!). If everyone brings a bit of something (I think Tigerfeet is going to bring some dips etc from where she works) that would be great. No idea what the weather forecast is yet. Let's hope for a bit of dry weather, if not sunshine.
