North-East meet up in Newcastle

[Louise1980]

Im from Blyth in northumberland and would like to arrange a meet-up somewhere in newcastle or there abouts.

Any1 interested?

[emmamama]

I haven't come up with anywhere yet, still thinking.

[mcmum]

emmamamma, im huffed !!!!

[Louise1980]

Now now girls, I dont want any huffing on our days out!

Can everyone let me know if its definatly 31st May at Jesmond Dend Pets Corner? At 11am? Whats happening with the picnic idea? Shall we bring our own? Personally Id rather that as my kids can be fussy eaters.

[miranda2]

Tues 31st at 11 it is then. It'll just be me and the baby, ds1 will be in nursery (if I take him out for this I'll have to entertain him for the rest of the day!).
If it rains we can repair to Millfield Lodge, the cafe, to meet/regroup, and then you can all come to mine to eat the picnic if you want!

[Louise1980]

Thats very kind of you Miranda, you wont offer again after you meet my kids!!

lol. No they are quite well behaved at other peoples houses its just at home and in public I have trouble!

I dont know Jesmond very well so Im not sure where the Millfield Lodge is?

[miranda2]

Its the cafe at pets corner, right opposite the animals. So we could meet in there if it was raining.

[emmamama]

Can't believe I didn't suggest that!! Mind I've only been to Pet's Corner about a billion times.

So Tuesday 31st at 11 am.

I apologise in advance.

[albosmum]

I am visiting the area that week (staying in jesmond) and would love to meet some other mnetters - can I join you - do any of you have older children!

[emmamama]

Hello albosmum, you're more than welcome of course!

I think the eldest child is 5 , what ages are yours?

[peckarollover]

I have got a wedding dress fitting at 9.30 - but should be done by 11 hopefully

[highlander]

Gals,
any chance of another meet-up in July? I'm returning to Gosforth from Vancouver at the end of June and I don't know any mums in the Toon!

[peckarollover]

Are you returning for good?

[emmamama]

Once the school holidays arrive I will be pestering you all daily for meet ups.

How many would you like?

Pecka, how excited are you for your dress fitting?

[peckarollover]

Would be more excited if i could stop eating rubbish and worrying i will be a stone heavier come the wedding!

[emmamama]

You'll have heard it all before, but all the nervous energy you spend will take care of the extra eating you're doing.

Can I ask where you are getting your dress from?

[peckarollover]

I got a TOTAL bargain

Found THE DRESS in Wedding Essentials on Dean Street for £1200

Got it in my size, unworn on ebay for £300 (poor girl had had to cancel her wedding)

Want to see pics?! Im always happy to show them about lol

[emmamama]

Go on then.
