Calling Cymru!

[emsiewill]

Just wondered if anyone in Wales fancied the idea of a meetup - I know there was one in Bath last year, and I think there's more of us in Wales now - star & bron of course and I think jac34 and I'm sure there's at least a couple of others.
I haven't got any set ideas of where/when/what, just thought I'd dip my toe in the water and see what the interest is.

I'd love to come but I can't make it,I'll be working.Let me know if you do another some other time and have fun.

Just seen latest messages - 5th sounds great and ASK is lovely so lots of pasta & wine then! What sort of time are you hoping for - can everyone manage a late lunch (about 3pm?)

Ask on the 5th sounds great. If I had a choice I'd prefer to meet a bit earlier so that I can get back to Swansea to get children to bed, but what does everyone else think?

Yes, I'd rather meet a little earlier - zippyb is there a reason why you prefer 3 - I was thinking maybe 1ish? I think there's only jac34 I haven't heard from now - are you still interested?

Yes, I'd prefere an earlier one as well, 1pm on the 5th at ASK sounds fine.

No 1pm will be fine with me - just have to sort out the child care now!! Really want to come so hope I can sort something out.

I'll be there (barring any disasters of course - ever since DD1 threw up half an hour before DH and I were going out for the 1st time since DD2 was born, I try not to get too excited about things!)
Thanks for offering to book it, Bron.

Excellent, Bron - thanks for offering to book. Really looking forward to it, despite the fact that I have an exam on the 8th. I think I'll be needing to drown my sorrows!

Bron, did you manage to book?

Very much looking forward to meeting you all

DH agreed to mind DS next saturday so looks like I can really come! Looking forward to it - hope that you all are too.

Hurrah! Looking forward to this sooo much, if only to take my mind of my exam (on the 8th). Always wanted to go to Ask, but looked more like the sort of place you go to without kids for an afternoon of eating & drinking - so that's definately what I'm up for.

Thanks again, Bron, for booking.

yes thanks bron for booking too - afternoon of eating & drinking - oh YES!

Thanks Bron, it should be a laugh, a bit like a blind date.
It will be nice to sit down, have a chat, and eat a meal in peace !!!

I too am looking forward to meeting you all. We went out with friends last week for a meal and I managed not to cut up their dinners for them or tell them to sit down nicely! I still managed to spill my own food down myself, so am obviously still sadly lacking in social skills and should have borrowed one of DD2's bibs! Will have to put one in my bag for Saturday

Bad news I'm afraid - DH has been offered overtime on Saturday & we really can't turn it down. Really sorry but won't be able to make it - serious lack of babysitters at moment - really gutted. Hope the rest of you have a great time & I shall think of all of you having fun - aargh! so not fair!! Will catch up with how it went I hope on Sunday. Post a 'review' for me!

you'll just have to come to the next one zippyb, it's a real shame, but I'm sure we'll arrange another one soon.

Yes hope we arrange another one soon - still sulking with DH but must think of our overdraft!
