[swissmiss78]

Hi everyone

I am 27 with a 20 month old son - I live in Barnstaple, North Devon.

This is the first time I've been to this site & it would be great to hear from anyone who lives near me...

CYA

i wont be able to meet before schools go back i'm afraid. and even then ds2 is only going mornings for 2 weeks before he goes full time.
or we could do an evening thing.

HA HA HA!!!! Sorry. No chance of an evening here,dh would have a nervous breakdown!

hi everyone can i join in your meet up 2 ..dinkies would be good for me to as my little girl is 19 months and shes not good at sitting for to long she likes to run everywhere .at dinkies theres lots of room lo and big ones to play ,i live in exeter to im learning to drive hopefully i eventually can pass mt test,i work mon and tues afternoons but any other time would great .would be lovely to meet u all ..

I may join you on an exeter meet up, any where i an get to by bike ( which means exeter and with in about 7 miles of north exeter. Dinkies sound good, boy is 18m/o, eventully we will go to dinkies and he will not have the screaming abdabs about the ball pool. So sorry if we go there and he is having the abdabs, he just doesn;t seem to "get" ball pools

sorry, ive been in london for a couple of days with no net access.

mrsmopp and unisarah you are both more than welcome to come we just need to sort a date we can all make it to. any ideas anyone?

Hi there, sorry to butt in but have just moved to Shaldon from Spain, originally from the north west. Don´t now anyone here and looking for some new friends and suggestions on where to take my 9 month old boy to meet some friends as well.

Any suggestions, anyone want to meet, I don´t have a car but can get to places on bus or train.

aims if you can get to exeter, join us! i have a 9 month old ds too.

That sounds great, just let me know where and when, I have heard of Dinkys but never been before, I am sure I can find it though.
Thanks

i think next time i go into exeter i will hunt out dinkies, just so i know where it is if we decide to meet there

I think I am going to try out the train from Teignmouth to Exeter this week, see how easy it is!!! If anyone fancies meeting give us a shout

I'm from a small village near Exeter and would love to meet up with others sometime. I work full time, but different shifts, so the "when" would be variable but I drive, so the "where" most likely wouldn't be a problem (unless I get too far off my known pathways and get lost! ). I've heard good things about this Dinkys place, but have never been there.

Hi Triggles and all. Can someone please explain (again!) where Dinkys is. Lived here forever but still haven't found it!

Dinky's is one one of the little streets (called Guinea St I think) behind the High St, behind where Foodeaze was in the old market hall. To get there you can go down a little passage to the left of the recently closed Foodeaze, there's a car park on your left, then a little street on your right, Dinky's is just there on the corner facing you.

Or you can go along South St and up Guinea St, past a pet shop and Dinky's is there on your right.

my 3yo is getting a bit big for Dinky's now, I'd be worried she'd rampage over too many small and wobbly children so I can't really join you there if you do meet.

That was my other worry - ds3 but dd1. Wasn't sure what the age range was. Is Bumpers backyard still going at riverside leisure center?

Dinky's is officially OK for all pre-schoolers but it's especially aimed at the under 3s really. The Riverside soft play is still there, a bit scruffy and airless so not that great a place to hang out but my children quite like it.

Haven't taken ds2 and dd2 there but the older 2 always enjoyed it. Tho it was minging then iirc.

I'll try and remember to enquire at Riverside aout Bumpers prices. I'm there tomoz for the sports hall. Need to ask if i have to pay for Boy to go into Bumpers decide he hates it and come straight back out again like he has done the last few times hes been near a soft pay area.

Hi ,Dinkies is a kid friendly cafe place in Exeter. Not that i've ever been! Where have yoy moved from? I have 4dc's aged 9,7,3 and 1.

I live just outside exeter - bout 15/20 mins from crediton. Lots of relis in copplestone,sandford areas. Crediton quite but o.k. Schools all pretty good,secondary very good. Hoping to get mine in there. How old are your dds?

Well it is lovely out there and although exeter seems miles away it isn't too bad. My sis is at QE and loves it and i went there for a while too. My youngest is dd 14mths, ds3 is 3 and at preschool 3ams a wk. Always up for a meet up!

Mon,tues,weds. Going too - school run!
