You may think you are the only one Mumsnetting in the North East but you are not. Come on and meet foxytocin and a few other lovely mumsnetters. Sign up quick so you can help decide where and when.

Indith, SPB, BT, Lackadaisy... I am baaa-ack.

C&E is on one of the corners by the entrance, so it is pretty easy to spot! As GM said, you can't get lost - it's just street of shops - not exactly big! There is some P&T spaces at the far end of the carpark - head towards MaccyDs and they are near the back of the shops.

BouncingTurtle · 11/04/2009 11:23

Are you joing us GM? You are very welcome!

Indith · 12/04/2009 16:59

Betty I've met SPB, BT and Foxy, looking forward to meeting you So long as the lovely SPB is still happy to take me!

House still as pretty by the way

BT - Sadly, I wont be able to make it, I live 150 miles away from Durham now. Although I have met SPB, she's really a hairy trucker called Bert lovely

BouncingTurtle · 13/04/2009 13:21

she's really a hairy trucker called Bert lovely.

That's right, and she is very lecherous friendly too

LackaDAISYcal · 14/04/2009 09:49

BT pointed me over here, but I sadly can't make it as I have school run at 3...unless I can get someone to pick DS1 up for me!!

But, while I'm here, can any of you help over HERE. She is in your neck of the woods!

StealthPolarBear · 14/04/2009 09:56

oi you meanies
Daisy, I did't know you were round 'ere
Indith, no problem, will email you to arrange where to meet and when

LackaDAISYcal · 14/04/2009 10:07

I'm not really, but not too far away! I'm in N Leeds.

Can you help on the thread I linked SPB?

StealthPolarBear · 14/04/2009 10:36

Leeds is miles away
I can't I did have a look but it does sound as though she needs to see someone professionally as you've already told her.
Think I'll invite her to the meet up though but it sounds as if she has a lot on her plate!

LackaDAISYcal · 14/04/2009 10:39

ach, it only takes an hour and a half and a day out is a day out

Indith · 14/04/2009 10:44

lol Daisy, an hour and a half to meet up, that is dedication

I spend lots of time in Leeds as my ILs are there but sadly would never have the time to meet MNers too as the ILs are divorced and each insists we "pop in" to see them when we have plans to see the other

LackaDAISYcal · 14/04/2009 11:02

ah well, if ever you can sneak away

juneybean · 16/04/2009 15:01

Hello foxytocin told me to come check this out.

Unfortunately I'm working that day and think I might be pushing it to get there and back before charges parents come home at 5pm :/

BouncingTurtle · 19/04/2009 16:25

Anyone else joining us?

Indith · 23/04/2009 14:27

Cake soon!

BT and SPB what size shoe do your boys take? I have some fab little shoes that are perfect for messing around in the garden with paddling pools and watering cans that we were given but they are a size 4 and ds is a 5. Any takers?

BouncingTurtle · 23/04/2009 14:42

Well DS is a 3G, but I need to take him to be remeasured! Can you bring them with you on Tuesday, the 4's may fit him!
Very kind of you to offer them, regardless

StealthPolarBear · 23/04/2009 14:45

hi!
Meant to bump this to check we were still on.
Indith, do you still need a lift, if so will you email me your address?
Hi juneybean, sorry you can't make this one, hope you can make future ones.

So the meetup is (pilfering from BT's post)

StealthPolarBear · 23/04/2009 14:46

ooh thanks for the offer Indith but T is currently a 5 and will hopefully be into the next size up in a couple of weeks (feet haven't gron since November )

Indith · 23/04/2009 18:05

William's didn't grow for aaaages, I was very grateful since when they finally did he cost me far too much money!

Shall bring them BT, you've more chance of getting use out of them than I have!

StealthPolarBear · 23/04/2009 19:21

BouncingTurtle · 25/04/2009 10:22

More the merrier!!
I maybe a leetle bit late... I'll email Foxy & Indith with my mobile number, and if you could email me back with yours, so I can find you that would be lurvely.

I'm on a training course which finishes at 1pm all week, so I'll need to pick DS up from nursery and head straight up, but shouldn't be too much after 2pm, so thinking only be 5-10mins late.

BouncingTurtle · 26/04/2009 06:31
