Hello, feeling brave so thought I'd poke my head in here. Moved to Cheltenham about 7 months ago and to date I know 2 other mums so my diary is a little empty... Would love to meet others. I have a 2yr old DS and DS2 is due in October.

Hi I'm in Cheltenham - we should have met up at Wychwood shouldn't we!

I'm up for a meet up, I have 2 boys age 5 and 8 so are at school, but I'm free on Fridays to meet up without the kids.

Hi everyone, just seen this thread and was wondering if any of you are from Stroud way and might be able to help Zori.

Lanky - Yes I'd be up for a meet up over the summer, not getting away at all due to DH job so I'm looking for ways to keep 3 DCs (5,4 & 1 yo) occupied.

LostinGlos · 18/08/2010 00:17

Hi, Im brand new on here & thought I'd take your cue from some time ago & be brave....
I have had 2 DD's in the past 2 years & moved house & have basically lost my social life along the way....would love to start making new friends again....
Could really do with getting a smile back on my face !

LostinGlos · 18/08/2010 00:24

Meant to say..I'm in Abbeydale & have a teenage son too...just to add to the mix !
But unfortunately I work full time so don't even get the chance to meet up a playgroups etc...have a full time stay at home hubby !
Am pretty isolated in my job & then nothing in the evenings either..so is anyone out there for weekends or evenings ?

Hello LostinGlos, welcome

Was wondering if anything had happened on this thread, it's been quiet for a while.
Two dds in 2 years - well done! I bet your ds loves his little sisters.

Let's see if we can get the thread up and running.

Hi I'm in Chelt and would love to see this thread come to life again. I know GetOrfmyLand is in Glos so maybe we can organise a meet?

Thing is no-one sees the thread do they

LargeGlassofRed · 29/09/2010 22:55

pokes head in Smile
would be up for a meet up too, the dts are 15 months now and driving me mad into everything Grin

DollyTwat · 29/09/2010 23:07

Oh hello everyone! Wow a few more posts, I was wondering when the tumbleweed would stop rolling past.

Hey LGoR - long time no see, I bet those boys are a delight. My ds is at playgroup now so we aren't Bounce and Sing-ing any more.

Bumper - I didn't know you were in this neck of the woods. Get back on that sofa and don't even think about housework....

Hello Dolly (I will resist urge to break into song) I would love to meet GetOrf but I think her dd is a bit older and she could only do weekends.

I am up for a meet, having failed to get one sorted yet this year.

Hi all, just to say that I went to Blooms today (garden centre by junc 12 of M5) where some of us met last year and they have a nice soft-play area for the under-5s if that helps. Nice coffee and cakes too!

PatTheHammer · 30/09/2010 21:39

Sorry, meant to say NEW soft-plat area! DS loved it!

I am still around for meet-ups but mainly in school hols cos of job and also DD at school full-time as of next week which restricts my day off somewhat!

DollyTwat · 01/10/2010 00:05

I've taken the mantle and done it!!
here

You'd all better come now I've arranged it!! Please don't leave me in the wine bar on my own

It will end in tears

swissmiss · 01/10/2010 23:30

Another one who recommends the soft play at Blooms by j12, only costs as much as you spend on cake and coffee! :o

LargeGlassofRed · 02/10/2010 14:02

It seams the only place I can relax with the dts!

Well we thoroughly road-tested the free soft play at Blooms yesteday and can assure you all that it does in fact work.

What a great free place to meet and spend an entire afternoon for nothing but the petrol.

Tingry · 22/11/2010 21:22
