Just bumping up for you louise, I'm from the NE but Darlington so it's a bit far for me to meet up. There are quite a few mums in your area though but they may not be around until after the weekend?

Thanks Juniper, Id love to make it in the park at Chester - le -Street but I dont drive so couldnt get there. If I can arrange transport would that be nearer for you?

I don't have a car either (can but don't like driving ) Chester-le-street isn't that far from me though I don't think so it would be possible. My kids may be older than yours though, ds2 is starting school soon.

Yeah, just I thought that Newcastle would be more central for everyone. If people dont drive they can get the bus there.
