April 2007 - SE meet up...will we ever manage to get this thing organised?

[Idreamofchocolate]

OK Ladies, let's get this sorted before Christmas is upon us.

Can anyone who's interested in meeting sign up here and express some preferences for where and when.

I think we said something about Basingstoke last time we met. This suits me, but not sure about Dippy.

As for days, I would prefer not to bring Emily with me as she will not sit still for longer than 10 minutes. I can do weekdays or weekends (provided dh is not working).

Thoughts?

Basingstoke should be ok with me...I too would prefer not to bring Jake, could do weekends, weekdays ok but Tuesdays or Fridays best so I don't have Jake.

I don't mind where the meet is, dh will drive me. Weekends would be my favourite time

I wanna come >

but a bit far

oogs, I'm sure you can be there either via cyber space, or virtually. Can't you blue tooth yourself or something?

that reminds me, what is 'poking' in facebook, and why would I want to poke myself and others?

I have no idea what poking is - I find facebook confusing

Hi IDOC, would love to meet up too. Would need to be after the October half term if pos, as Becky is only doing half days at school until then which is a logistical effing nightmare!!!

Any day though after then, and Basingstoke fine for me.

I might try to make it but will see what's arranged and research trains etc when it's been fixed up and I get back home. Waterloo is one bus journey from here but it's the other side of central London.

make it near enough to christmas and I might meet you there, am hoping to go down to Swindon/Yeovil in December (if pesha will have me ) and stopped off in Basingstoke on the way there last weekend

That'd be great Ellie!

yeah right, can hear the collective groan from here

Oooo look, you did post on here!

OK, I'll pick a date for starters....Tuesday 4th December in Basingstoke. How does that grab you?

Ooooh Ellie, so you did!

Bring it on!

December onwards, I can only do Wednesday or Thursday as am back to work from Monday 3rd What a pita I am!

see, I go to all the effort of posting and you didn't even look here

will see what I can do with the Tuesday, might take the Mon/Tue off work, travel down for Sunday then meet you guys on the way home, break the journey up

rubbish!
I have my work xmas do on 7th so need to be at work for the 6th and 7th really, but could take monday/tuesday/wednesday off?

Could we make it the last week of November then, before SOL goes back to work, or is that too early for you Ellie?

nah, i can do whenever, need to check with Pesha though as it'll mean me visiting her while i'm there

Its my birthday in November

Other than that i have no plans, no life, nothing!

Go on then Vamp, pick a date

now if we're really clever we could pick the weekend that my mum is in Suffolk visiting

Or you could bring her with you.

erm..........no!
i'm think that if we choose that one without realising, i can visit sis in swindon without having to see mum, and i miss her trip to suffolk so it'll be 6 months reprieve

But your sister annoys you too doesn't she? Or is she the lesser of two evils?

sis without mum is fine, it's the influence of said parent that buggers it up
lou came up with two children, on her own, on the train, to Joe's christening cos mum wouldn't come.

Silly old moo then, best avoided.

Get Pesha to suggest a good date and lets get this thing sorted out then.

Off to bed. Fingers crossed dh doesn't chunder, I can't handle looking after 3 children.
