PLYMOUTH MEET UP - Anyone want to join the gang?

[19fran76]

It's just me & my DD right now but I'm hopeful that other Plymouth mums will find us. I'm 32 yrs old, my girl is six months & we're ready to be sociable. Who else is? Looking forward to finding out

I lost this thread for a while.. sorry!

I'd love to meet up again, am free most days (without children!). Saw on another thread that Pavlov is due any second now, so perhaps we can get together when she's up and about again?

She's had the baby, yay! Go to Birth Announcements & shed a celebratory tear

How are you doing, anyhoo?

yes fab news on Pav. I am bookmarking this thread and will hopefully make the next meet up!!!

That would be great oooggs.

I'm planning on trying out the new soft play place with a few friends this weekend, so perhaps we could there if it's any good?

I'm great thanks Fran. Looking forward to my DH coming home.. it's been a long six months!

Saw Pav's announcement... v.jealous!

Fran/Pav/Oooggs - what days are good for you?

Twins (2.6) at nursery on wed & thurs but I can come without then and just with ds3 (10 mths)

Best to arrange and I will see how I can fit in - need to be around for the school run ds1 (5)

Yes liked to look of that new place - wonder if they do a twin discount like Jump (BOGOF)

Let us know what you think - word of mouth is very powerful

oh and fab news on dh coming home

FYI - Tried out Drakes Den today.

Feedback:

Coffee OK, and cheaper than Jump, but latte machine broken. Was too cold, but they say they're struggling to get the heating system right, and hope to sort this soon. DS1 (5.5) and DS2 (3.5) both enjoyed it. Much smaller than Jump. Ideal for 0-6 I think. Not challenging enough for much older ones. Much better than Jump for 3-4 year olds who have outgrown the baby room, but are intimidated by the size of the other section. More sensible menu, with more reasonable prices. Would be a nice place for a meet up.

Sounds interesting, ds1 is 6 on friday but would like helping his brothers & sister so would probably survive

But a meet up when he is at school would be better

loads going on this side of Christmas with plays, concerts, parties etc.. so maybe January when everything is flat?

Sounds good to me.. and would give Pavlov a chance to bring her teeny baby with her!

Howdy you two!

Welcome home DH to FourArms.

I'm up for putting a little fizz into January with you all. Especially if we can get a peek at Pavs' little addition/completion

Hope everyone had a good Christmas! We had a lovely time.... lots of family staying [slightly frazzled by the New Year, but good fun!].

I've just posted a thread on the local forum with a suggested date for a meet up.

Drakes Den Meet Up - 10 am Mon 25th Jan 2010

Thread here

I'll message people too as I know I always lose track of this thread.

I am BACK!!! with a baby and everything. I did not really leave, but was not in the land of the real world for a v long time, only MN!

Come on Plymouth Ladies. We can do more than three at the meetup this time surely!

We are lovely. Honestly!

Oh to entice you further. I will let you cuddle my newborn if you come. Is that tempting? (or will it put you off?!!) he is not a cryer, more a sleeper/eater, so you won't have to deal with a squawking baby the whole time hopefully

ok I am mad (fourarms knows this ) but I have posted on all of the threads to this we are coming and I would love a cuddle (with the baby ) as NOT HAVING ANYMORE!!!!!!

ooggs not mad at all, well you might be but not for the reason stated I posted on all of them too. Keen eh? you now have first dibs on the cuddles with Reuben!

can't wait Pav,

good choice fourarms as Monday is the best day for me (well wed & thur I have no dts so they are also good days )

bumping for any other people who might want to come along

come on ladies...we need more people!

Pav!!!!! Mega mega congrats!! Next time I'm in Plymouth, we'll have to do a meet up - I can't wait to give your new DS a cuddle and my DS and your DD do play so well don't they

jimmy where have you beeeeeeen! Our kids do play well, can you make it down for 25th? I hope you are well, i know things had been tough for you, hope they have settled a bit xx

I work Mon, Tues and Weds so wouldn't be able to make a Monday meet up, but I'm hoping to be in Plymouth within the next few weeks on my non working days, so I'll let you know and maybe we can meet for a coffee? I'll bitch slap anyone who stares if you are worried about b'feeding in public!!

Yes, things are a tad better now although missing my Granddad very very much. The St Luke's hospice was so lovely to him though..couldn't fault them. Better than the crappy Mac nurse!

ST Lukes Hospice have a great reputation.

I have no problems getting my boobs out in public! luckily or else i would never leave the house, the boy loves his milk! Coffee would be great. Do you still have my mobile no? i am sure i have yours so will text it to you...

no I don't...you will have to text it to me.

Sooo pleased re your new DS and what a lovely name! Worth all the sickness

There has been a couple of other people posting on the local site (gosh it all gets confusing doesn't it!) here and here who can't make a Monday. Would it be OK if we swapped the days to make it work for more people? Pavlov/Oooggs - are you OK for any day of the week?
