Would happily meet up in the evening or lunch at the weekends so partner could have kids - have to bring the baby though as i wear him like a badge!
Leicester or Nottingham would suit me best.

I'm also from Coventry, Not much of a chatter at the minute though, quiet new to mumsnet and often just browse at the threads to get a feel!!

Lill · 27/01/2002 21:22

Watch out Rosilee once you start you wont be able to stop. I only strated a few days ago and now im hooked it has the added bonus of keeping me a way from my not so d h!

had a thought on another thread that ikea (j26) would be a good place to meet. it is quite during the week, accessable, children friendly and great for lunch.

year0 · 28/01/2002 10:38

Sounds good

Lill · 28/01/2002 11:31

sorry that should have obviously read 'quiet'

OK how many midlander netters fancy a lunchtime meeting with kids at ikea, junc 26 M1? Thurs or Fridays are best for me. Lets say betweeen 10.30 - 2.00pm?

Anyone else - ChanelNo5, Hilary?

Lill · 28/01/2002 13:28

Alternatively we could do an evening somewhere a little more exciting?

helenmh · 28/01/2002 14:26

Lill - An evening somewhere would suit me better as I have to pick dd up at lunchtime and ds up at 3pm. Would love to meet up though!

Hilary · 28/01/2002 22:22

I'm 1 1/2 hours from Ikea ( I don't know how I cope!) so it would be a whole day thing for me. Possible though. Although an evening thing sounds appealing, I don't fancy a long journey back on terrible Lincolnshire roads late at night.

spring · 29/01/2002 09:51

I live in West Bridgford near Nottingham. Would love to meet up but at the moment I'm STILL working full time, plan to finish in April though. Meeting in a play park would be a little easier for those of us not so brave? How about organising a day trip by train to the seaside in the summer? My dd will be 3 in June (where did that go?).

year0 · 29/01/2002 12:40

Would love to meet up somewhere/somehow. Starting work next week so Ikea would have been ideal up till now!

Hilary · 29/01/2002 22:02

I used to live near you in Nottingham, spring, but have moved to the middle of Lincolnshire. Ikea would have been brilliant for me 18 months ago. However I am fairly near the seaside if you decide to go east from Nottingham rather than west. But...by the summer, I may have moved again so probably best not to count me in.

Hi, only just found this thread. I live in Droitwich Spa, 7 miles from Worcester. I would also love to meet up. Best days for me are Monday and Tuesday (with 3 year old) or evenings/weekends, without. I work weds, thurs, Fridays and have to pick 7 year old up from school other days.
Ikea is one of my favourite places, esp. as I have an Ikea card, yippeeee.
I hope we can arrange something.
