A Manchester Meet up?

Seems there a few Manchester MNers who would like a meet up.

I know the SHineys are having one but feels wrong to gate crash if we haven;t posted!!

I am not volunteering to organise one, just starting a thread so other people can

I am far to lazy and likely to change my mind to do that!!

I am sure there are one or two leaves in Trafford...

oh, I love Holmfirth...there are lots of leaves there !

BelleDameSansMerci · 09/02/2010 18:59

AF, yes, lots of leaves, trees, squirrels, bloody owls hooting all sodding night and, my personal favourite, two brown rats eating the bird food in my garden this morning - ewwww.

AnyFucker · 09/02/2010 19:08

ee-by-gum, belle

you are a proper yokel aren't ya ?

BelleDameSansMerci · 09/02/2010 19:12

We-ell, yes, strictly speakingm I am. I'm from Suffolk originally. The saying goes:

"Suffolk born and Suffolk bred
Strong in the arm and thick in the head."

Is that the same as 'Not right bright but good at lifting stuff'?
That's our local motto.

Okay I've been checking you all out and I think I'm sure I don't know any of you
Not surprising really I don't know many people in Manchester.
However Skies, I used to live down the road from you in the place with the silly church.

There was also someone on the FB group who lives near me now (east of Manchester) but I can't remember who.
I'd make a rubbish detective.

BelleDameSansMerci · 09/02/2010 22:10

I've checked you lot out too and you're far too bloody attractive and young for my liking. I'll get over it but do try to look dowdy when we meet

hairymelons · 09/02/2010 22:14

That will be no problem for me, dowdy I can do. My profile pic is 3 years old

I look tired and old now, and all my clothes are from 2007 cos we've been skint since I went on maternity leave.

hairymelons · 09/02/2010 22:15

Having said that, I might just have a teensy peek at that Boden catalogue

AnyFucker · 09/02/2010 22:19

I am old and knackered, belle

BelleDameSansMerci · 09/02/2010 22:20

LOL! melons

BelleDameSansMerci · 09/02/2010 22:21

AF I'm glad I won't be the only one... I doubt it's true of you though.

I keep looking through the Boden catalogue too. One day when I win the lottery I'll treat myself.

Actually I've banned myself from buying any clothes unless they're from a charity shop (not that I buy many clothes anyway.)
I started my first ever diet a few months ago and I've lost loads of weight but still want to lose more.
When I get to the weight I want I might have to treat myself to a nice boden skirt.

As for being glam... no not a chance, unless no make up and charity shop clothes is glam.

whenskiesaregrey · 09/02/2010 23:34

bilblio- which church?!

Okay, okay, don't all hate me for asking this but... is there anyone younger than 30?? I'm not asking that after looking at your pictures, honestly , just curious! Just wondering if there is anyone around my age, or am I going to look like the little kid in the corner

whenskiesaregrey · 09/02/2010 23:44

oooooh bilblio, do you mean the church where they do 'yogic flying'?!

gigglewitch · 10/02/2010 00:13

ooo. OOOOooo!! Bookmarking, would love to come but don't know yet whether I'll have started my permanent [new] job. If still doing agency then I can skive register as unavailable and come on the meet up instead!!

CillySunt · 10/02/2010 01:38

Oh I would love to come

AnyFucker · 10/02/2010 07:14

skies, looking the youngest isn't as bad as looking like everyone's mum !!

you will be fine < pats head >
