we used to have one in london then it got all regional last year i wanted to bring this up as i know it needs organising soon for november. i missed not going to one last year and so wondered who if anyone would beintrested in a central mumsnet meet up - you would have to palm your kids off as this is a pissfest ( except for me am on water)

I'll do some links for you if you like! Agree it's nice to turn up 'with' someone. Wait and see when the dates are and I'll look them up for you. It's a straight ride through on the district line though, so not bad!

MarsLady · 10/08/2005 10:33

choose the date quickly please ladies, cos it's around that time that I get invited to lots of parties and I so want to see what you lot look like.

handlemecarefully · 10/08/2005 10:34

Oh yes please - some links would be great when you've got the time.

handlemecarefully · 10/08/2005 10:35

Marslady - snap, I've been thinking; must loose some weight!

handlemecarefully · 10/08/2005 10:35

Funny how we worry so much about the impression we'll make

hunkermunker · 10/08/2005 10:35

It's OK, ladies - I will look like such a heifer by then, you'll all look gorgeous by comparison

hunkermunker · 10/08/2005 10:36

Flossam · 10/08/2005 10:54

Ohh, goodie!! Hold HMC, I'll find you the places. Be warned, if you are expecting vibrant city life and a beautiful metropolitan surrounding you will be dissapointed. but it's cheap and cheerful and you will understand my desperation to get to Bristol!

MarsLady · 10/08/2005 10:57

It is now in my diary. 26th November. Must remember not to book any salsa weekends lol

Starting to get a little excited. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...... must calm down. I'm supposed to be a responsible parent.

Tortington · 10/08/2005 10:58

if 4 of us are going to a travel inn type place then it will ease the taxi fare

If it is East London Flossam, I am counting on meeting Sharon Watts!

Hunkermunker, no drinking for you on the night eh? That's a bit of a downer!

handlemecarefully · 10/08/2005 11:02

Custardo, you could always stay in East London and travel in with the Flossam posse!

sis · 10/08/2005 11:02

can I join the list too?

hunkermunker · 10/08/2005 11:03

No, no drinking, but don't really anyway (people often think I've been at the cooking sherry anyway though )

handlemecarefully · 10/08/2005 11:04

I wonder why that could be ?

unicorn · 10/08/2005 11:06

This is the Etap Hotel basic but cheap and clean About £38

This is the Ibis mum always stays here ! About £52

The other is a Premier Travel Inn, not a holiday Inn, sorry Link - this one has the best place to eat ! About £55

Or if you really are on a shoe string (and I think I mean really) and don't mind sharing your loo and bathroom! cheap cheap cheap ! About £30

Have a look and let me know what you think. Here is a link to where I am on the tube If you scroll across a few times you can see South Ken on the district line.

Phew! Sorry that took me a while! Hope thats all ok!

handlemecarefully · 10/08/2005 11:12

Also, Wickedwaterwitch said that she might come, and Ailsa said to count her in....

handlemecarefully · 10/08/2005 11:13

I'll probably go for the Ibis if it has your mum's approval!

handlemecarefully · 10/08/2005 11:14

Oh sorry custardo, you've got www - doh!
