Swansea meet up July 2010

[QualityTime]

Here we go then

Possible locations,
Brynmill park
Lido
Gnoll park (although not strictly swansea)

dates, whatever for me, although afternoons/lunchtimes during the week are better until school breaks up.

Sign up!

I know this is a stupid question but as i am new what does DD mean?? Can anyone give me update on the slag terms?

DD is dear or darling daughter
DS is dear or darling son
Full list of acronyms here
You can find it again if you go to Mumsnet talk then it's listed between Getting started and Useful stuff

I'm not a slag, i'm just lazy .

Sorry, but couldn't help it.

I didn't even notice that !

Can I join in 2, I have been wanting to come to a meet up for a while now, lol I think this month I will be brave and do it! It's like the first day of school all over again ;)

Hey, that's not bad for Swansea, considering we haven't really managed a 'proper' meet up yet

right I'm heading away for a week tomorrow so just wanted to confirm that I'm still planning on coming along with my two DDs. I'll check in next Wednesday to confirm that the meetup is still on and I'm not going to be wandering around Brynmill park like a lost wee soul asking random strangers if they use the internet a lot !

Much respect for your crossing out skills there smac! see you in the 15th!

Well, I keep lurking on this thread, and then shuffling out again.

Deep breath........

Can I come please???

BTW am a big lurker and a small poster. Live about 1/2 hr from Swansea with a 7 mth dd. Being on mat leave has caused a crisis of confidence I think. I'm certainly unaccountably nervous about meeting all these new people.

Don't be a wally animagic, of course you can come!

Hope it doesn't rain...although we can always invade the discovery centre if it does, they won't know what's hit them

Ooooooooooooh, found out this morning that the netmums meetup is 24 hours later in the same spot that was close

anyway, kidding aside, last bump for lurkers and a reminder to everyone else, see you thursday!

Terribly sorry to disappoint ladies

but I'm not going to be able to make it on thursday
I'll definitely try to make it to the next one though.
Quality - phew, that was close!! hehe. No-one get confused now eh?!

Oh dear, who am i going to take the piss out of for liking a teen girl's book now?

ha ha that would have been hilarious if the Netmums and Mumsnetters had met at the same time on the same day in the same place!
Sorry you can't make it ECOW and amimagic I am also a little apprehensive but I keep moaning to DH that I am so lonely so I'm biting the bullet and coming along

duh should have previewed - sorry animagic

Am just giving this a quick bump!

Hope the weather is better tomorrow then it is today...

No kidding Dee, tots might not be able to make it to brynmill as her car is shit do we want a wet weather backup? although no clue how we would let each other know whether we were going to backup or not tbh as I will be out all morning!

Am still happy to attempt park with wellies and coats though, like I said , the discovery centre is there but we can't eat in it.

Smac, if you mail me on jackbauermn at gmail dot com I can send you a link to my fb or real email if it would make you any less apprehensive?

That goes for all of you btw

(except tots and dee.)

Is it too late to do a wet weather backup? Where would you suggest? I don't mind - i'm easy.

World of play is near us so tots could get there, is in cwmdu industrial park [http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=travis+perkins+trading,+swansea&sll=51. 635673,-3.97086&sspn=0.003163,0.009645&ie=UTF8&hq=travis+perkins+trading,&hnear=Swansea,+W+Glam,+Uni ted+Kingdom&ll=51.635387,-3.970313&spn=0.006326,0.01929&t=h&z=16 here]] but you can't take your own food in. is £3 with sausage and chips included.

The LC allows food in and is £4 for 3 and over or £2 for 2 and under but is in the middle of town so traffic may be an issue.

any other ideas? Swansea is shockingly bad for free things to do in the rain!
