Bluewater older mums?

172 replies

New to mn, not exactly new to motherhood - ds1 is 13, ds2 is 11 and dd is 9m.
Are there any older mums living in Bluewater area who also thought that if 40something Madonna can do it , so can I, only to discover that you forgot to put in place the army of domestic staff first?
If there are, and you can tear yourself away from that attractive pile of ironing, could we meet for coffee and valium?

Hi.. Only the one dd at the moment. She's just turned two and can be a right handful at times.. but wouldn't change her for the world.

1.30pm fine for me too. DD 23 months too so should be fun. Is everyone bringing the little treasures?? Where is a good place to go to sit and have a coffee? Needs to be quite big too with all of us.

There is lots of room in John Lewis' coffee shop if you park yourselves at the far end. Good baby changing facilities too.

Wish I could join you (boo).

1:30 is fine with me! See you all next week.

I'm still on if others are. Takes me about 40 mins - are roads likely to be busier today you think? No idea what is happening on trains today - presume they are mostly running

juicychops · 08/07/2005 07:49

angelp · 08/07/2005 07:56
