The Great Scottish Meet-Up!

[Toothache]

It seems that us Scots aren't that efficient when it comes to organising meet-ups that lots of Mumsnetters turn up to! I, myself have been going to go 5 and only made it to 2 of them! >must do better<

Lets try to organise a Big 'un? Who's up for it???

Somewhere central.... like..... hmmm..... Falkirk?

No, seriously though, Glasgow or Edinburgh would probably be best.

Lunchtime

lol Gomez.
Mum is doing away fine, just waiting for the housing to phone. She dropped it into the conversation casually the other night that I will get the phone call coz she said she's living with me!! and She didn't think to mention????

Is she still in BofA waiting for a call from Viewforth then Toothache?

Yeah Gomez. Well actually, apparently I'm awaiting the phonecall!
I'll tell her theres room at yours eh?

Christ there is plenty room at mine it is bl**dy empty. Our w&nker of a buyer pulled out on Wednesday so we are still in Riverside, back on the market at a fixed price and paying two mortgages! planning a trip to Lidl soon.

That's awful! What a pain!!!

That offer from me still stands (cash).

What for Riverside or BofA? Ask again in a month lovely and you might be onto a winner.

EITHER!

DH reckons we should just enjoy being property tycoons with a large portfolio for a few weeks - hopefully just a few weeks!

Gomez thats AWFUL. I'm really annoyed for you. Can he just 'pull out'?

Now, i'm off to see how much your house costs ...

Had completed missives JA9 but there is a technical legal argument aboout materially adverse and specific provisions! bascially the git found another house, messed us about and then walked away at last minute - we will sue for damages etc. But that doesn't help in the short-term and of course we might be unsuccesful and so need to plan on the basis that we won't get the money back.

Are you well anyway?

PS We are on the market with Clyde if that helps you hunt us down - come for a look, make an offer etc. etc.

we are actually looking for a house....

but think yours way too posh for us

you well apart from the house mess?

2 PT jobs came up for me - did you notice them. have my fingers crossed for the 0.4 out the road...

Where are you looking? Does that mean a priest has been appointed? We are not that posh...

Aside from the house disaster - got rear-ended at Springkerse today, the boot on my car won't shut. bumper cracked and my back & neck are killing me. Hence pain-killer and wine fuelled MN frenzy!
DD2 fell down the stairs and managed to bang the bannister 3 times, was in the car when we got hit and then was dropped by DD1 - so currently sporting a black eye/scrapped face/egg on head the wee scone!

I did funnily enough and now feel real bad that I forgot to post them for you. Sorry . Good Luck!

just a wee quick reply as i 'went to bed' half hour ago!!!!

no minister appointed yet, but they are actively looking... we're not looking anywhere in particular just 'keeping our eyes open'

your poor dds and you... what a rotten run of luck. hope you are somehow managing to stay cheery!!??

hope to see you soon...

1.30 is ok for me too!

Gomez - Hope you're all ok!

Ja9 - Back off... that house is mine I tell you MINE... HA HA HA HA HA ....

1.30pm will be fine for me too. Looking forward to it!

eh, ok toothache [fearful expression]

i could only afford half of it anyway!

Ja9 - How big is the house? Maybe we could go 50/50?

Just another recap of arrangements.... please note the time has changed!
