Just moved to worcester - don't know anyone, but would love to meet mums who don't think with their uterus (there ARE other topics of conversation although, I must admit, since having two children I can't for the life of me remember what any of them are...), love the odd (or even!) G&T and were perhaps wild childs before mother hood got the better of them.... Rachelx

Hi Rats

I moved to Evesham (about 10miles away) in October 2004. My dd's are at school in Worcester, so I'm in and out every day .....but I work full time. As a result of this latter item, I require G&Ts at frequent intervals!

There are a couple of Worcesterites - NomdePLume, who might be NameChangingMancMidlander now, Ailsa, Georgina??

Whereabouts are you roughly - in the town or surrounding areas?

Casmie · 30/01/2005 16:30

Ooo... yes, sorry missed this! AND we're well overdue for a Worcester pub meetup. Send us a CAT Rats

Hi Rats, I'm also in central worcester, Barbourne, where are you?

NameChangingMancMidlander · 31/01/2005 19:54

Helllllllllllllllloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo !

I'm also in Worcester . On the Villages, trapped in suburbia

Up for a drink or 5.

NameChangingMancMidlander · 31/01/2005 19:56

We could go for a bite in Ask and then head into town for a drink or several ?

Or we could meet at the Nightingale / Swan at Whittington for a more sedate evening.

Casmie · 31/01/2005 20:16

As long as it's at least a couple of weeks away I'm up for that, because I still feel like death warmed up at the moment.

Besides you lot will enjoy it more if I'm out of hacking cough stage

Casmie · 31/01/2005 20:17

A Nightingale meet appeals if we want to do a meal thing.

I like sedate

Ailsa · 31/01/2005 20:18

As long as it's not midweek NCMM - you know what happened to me last time. Fridays or Saturdays for town drinking for me from now on!!

Ailsa · 31/01/2005 20:19

What about Chimi Changa's - anyone tried it yet?

Rats · 31/01/2005 20:45

Oh wow, it looks as if there's a chance I might find a thread of a life here! Chimi Changas, Nightingales...don't know any of these places, but if there's a drink or two involved I'm in (don't want it to sound as if I'm TOO much of an old soak...). Live Fort Royal Hill area, just off London Road so anywhere in town is easy for me. Just require two weeks notice so I can try to get partner to rota himself accordingly to look after the kids! So, who's going to take the bull by the horns and set a date? Beginning of March is good for me! Right, off to bed (yes, THIS early - kids (affectionately known as Bastard Squad) gave me a generous 1.5hrs sleep last night....yawn). Will check your replies tomorrow! Rachel x

P.S Casmie - sedate sounds good to me. Followed by sedated, of course (much prefer a prescription of red wine over a good meal to nasty shots of something lethal down the local pub...)

Crashing this thread totally (live in Southampton!) and being really cheeky but... my brother runs Platform 8 toy and coffee shop in Upton-upon-Severn which has a kiddies area too if you wanted to meet up in the daytime. Hope you don't mind, saw the thread title and thought it might suit you guys. Will probably be kicked off mumsnet now!

NameChangingMancMidlander · 01/02/2005 12:30

Swan at Whittington does GORGEOUS food, but it a bit more expensive than the Nightingale (which is on the Evesham Rd).

Never been to Chimi Changas but Mexican isn't my fave cuisine (I'm assuming it's Mex given the name!).

PMSL @ 'You know what happened last time'. Oh yes, Ailsa. Indeed I do

RATS Just to warn you, that you may want to email [email protected] and have your mobile number and email deleted off here.

If you want anyone to email you then they can do it via the 'contact another talker' (CAT) link at the top of this page

NameChangingMancMidlander · 01/02/2005 12:31

that should be [email protected]

Ailsa · 01/02/2005 12:39

Weeks beginning 14th Feb or 7th mar are best for me due to dh's shifts. Try to ask MIL to babysit as little as poss. I already have more of a social life than her!!!!!!!!!!

NameChangingMancMidlander · 01/02/2005 12:40

As usual I can do pretty much any day apart from Mon & Weds as they are DH's badminton nights

NameChangingMancMidlander · 01/02/2005 12:41

P.S. Socci, I can give you a lift if you're stuck

Gumdrop · 01/02/2005 13:10

Hello

Can I, as your local yokel, come along? I promise to pick all the straw out of my hair, and not wear my wellies.

How about a Friday, 11th March? The Feb week mentioned is half term, and I've just invited an ex school friend each of my dd's (dear daughters) to come and play. So after a full day of 4 of them + schlepping up to B'ham to drop them off at home, might be a little fraught by Friday 17th evening!

I'll eat anything not still moving, so completely at your command re location.

Hopefully see you soon!

NameChangingMancMidlander · 01/02/2005 13:11

PMSL ! So long as you promise not to turn up on your Combine Harvester .

Gumdrop · 01/02/2005 13:19

As my D would say, Aaaaaawwwww. Busted!

Just have to go in my very mundane Focus then - got rid of the Landy when we moved down here.

NameChangingMancMidlander · 01/02/2005 13:20

Oi ! I have a mumdane Focus too

Rats · 01/02/2005 13:35

March 11th? Shall we call it a date? If we set that in stone then location can come after more deliberation... not a fan of Mex either though... and can I just ask: I'm 32 - I'm not going to be a decrepit specimen chaperoning a bunch of slim-jim whippersnappers am I?

Also, while I have your attention - I have to write an article about single mothers who have chosen to be single for whatever reason (not because a relationship ended - like time was running out, dislike men, lesbian etc). Do you know anyone I could speak to? Sorry to use you for work purposes!
