Brighton

[MABS]

Hi girls - shall we get together in September? when suits?

Also, as i think some of you know - am arranging a ball for the Treveor Mann Baby Unit in Novermber this year. Anyone got any ideas on who i can approach for donations for our raffle etc?

anything would be useful , however small you think it is, it will all help..

Would love you all to come if you fancy it, but i understand it aint everyone's cup of tea xx

I'm unlikely to make it, my baby still hasn't made an appearance, 40+8 today

I'm booked in for induction on Saturday so spare me a thought - believe me, I'd rather be on the pinot grigio than oxytocin...

Hi ladies

I'm not going to be able to make it now, sorry have been let off work much earlier than planned so we're on money rations until we know what work is coming.

Have a glass of vino for me

so sorry girls, good luck Makipuppy.
Rest of you?

makipuppy good luck

I will be there MABS, am meeting Mazon at boots at 12.45

Mamazon
oops

mumoverseas do you want to meet me at Boots?

tweak them nipples Makipuppy...(as i'm sure you've been told a million times if you've mentioned it on mumsnet)

are you guys going to be frocked up? or is it just a case finding something with the least amount of baby drool on it to wear?

2shoes think DH is going to drive me down and spend a few hours with DCs 3 and 4 whilst I'm getting pissed/eating

I will be wearing anything I can find that doesn't have baby puke/snot on and still fits

no dresses here x

i'm coming and shall be wearing whatever is on the top- of the clean pile on my bedroom floor.
im such a style guru

Shant be getting pissed though as Dp will be meeting me afterwards with the kids. Xp has refused to have them again

@mumoverseas, following that policy some of us might turn up butt-naked.

will have clothes on no fear

just learned that i may have to be 10/15 mins late tmro, will people defo be there on time? table booked in my name

Should be there tomorrow, ME and pregnancy depending! I promise if I do come, I shall be clothed, wouldn't be fair to torture you all like that

So am I the only newbiee? Sounds like you've all done this before..!!

no, you aren't only newbie Erika, just chatted to some on MN before. Do try to make it x

I'll be there to meet and greet

Don't worry Erika, I was a newbie last time and they were all so lovely x

i will be there on time

i'm sort of a mumsmeet virgin too.

looking forwards to seeing you lovely ladies

@mamazon - the floordrobe is the best way, think of all the time saved unnecessarily tidying!

though I'm not looking forwards to the half hour before going out (getting purse, keys, phone, trying to empty norks to avoid engorgement with baby refusing said innorkulation and toddler pestering because daddy wants her to stay up until the moment before i go..gngngng)

apparently last time i went out it took an hour to get the (ravenous) baby to drink a small cup of milk. ah well, that'll keep DH busy....

Thanks ladies Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow! I'll be the one with the red hair and multi-coloured walking stick!

bring pics of the babies please

do you want me to bring some very old ones lol

I'll bring scan pics if you insist - all I can contribute for now!!! Hehe. See you tomorrow, ladies

that'll do erika!

had a lovely time today girls, was so nice to meet some new faces too.
Poor DH was clearly struggling to look after DCs 3 & 4. Funny how I managed with DC1 to 4 for 13 weeks

MABS popped into Hurst on way back and DS1 is loving it there. House master was taking them to the cinema in Brighton tonight and down to Brighton tomorrow for the day. Glad he is settled so quickly, makes life easier for me returning to the land of sand next week x

Hey there, I had a great time too. Really lovely to meet you all and thanks for making me feel so welcome.
Looking forward to many more.
take care x
