Edinburgh meet up?

138 replies

On a couple of other threads it seems like a few of us have recently moved to Edinburgh and fancied a meet up. Some longstanding Edinburghers also said they would be up for a pint/wine/dram/coffee and cake to say hi.

I said I would be happy to organise it when I got here if no one else wanted to and well, I am here! The bags are (sort of) unpacked, DS has started school, and my new job at uni starts soon.

Please post if you want to come for a meet!

I'm heavily preggo too Always so we can provide the visual clues to identify the group...

Week of 26th OK with me, provided baby doesn't make an early appearance

Mum4Fergus · 12/09/2016 11:41

WC 26th ok-ish for me, depends on day Smile

Frogers · 12/09/2016 11:42

I want to come Grin currently Edinburgh, hopefully soon to be West Lothian.

StatisticallyChallenged · 12/09/2016 11:47

Wouldn't surprise me tbh ,Edinburgh can be a very small place sometimes!

BearFoxBear · 12/09/2016 16:51

I think that dh is away that week (and it's my birthday too!) so I probably won't be able to make it but I'll check on the dates.

KiteyDelighty · 12/09/2016 17:17

Count me in

mustgetabackbone · 12/09/2016 17:26

Oh me! I'm West Lothian but can travel through...

applesandpears33 · 12/09/2016 17:30

Week of 26th is good for me. It'd be really funny if I know some of you in rl.

Mum4Fergus · 12/09/2016 19:11

I'm Weslo too Grin

Veterinari · 12/09/2016 19:17

Could I join? Though it would be weird to be 'outed' in RL! I'm neither a mum nor Scottish but live in Edinburgh

mustgetabackbone · 12/09/2016 22:32

Haha lots of is Westies here!

readyforno2 · 12/09/2016 22:35

Sorry I was presuming it would be an evening thing? How about Thursday 29th?

Roseformeplease · 13/09/2016 19:14

Would love to come. Live waaaaay north but get to Edinburgh every few weeks. But, would need lots of notice. Also, want to meet Statistically from IndyRef threads.

StatisticallyChallenged · 13/09/2016 19:17

Ha, I'm a boring introvert in reality :D

Thursday 29th would work for me I think

StatisticallyChallenged · 13/09/2016 19:18

Evening that is - I work FT too

Noofly · 13/09/2016 20:00

I have a thing at school in the evening on the 29th, but that actually means I'll be in town anyway so depending on the time and location I could come along for a bit. If it's central I'd need to leave just after 6:30 (meeting is from 7-8). Otherwise could come through any other evening that week.

applesandpears33 · 13/09/2016 20:14

Sorry, 29th no good for me.

BankWadger · 13/09/2016 21:15

I can (miraculously) do the 28th or 29th.

BankWadger · 13/09/2016 21:16

(Evenings. Would never manage the Central Scotland school run on a day trip to Edinburgh!)

BaffledMummy · 14/09/2016 08:24

Ohh I'd love to join you all...South Edinburgh here. apples I thought that too! I wonder if we are going to turn up and find that we are all actually friends in real life already!

TheMshipIsBack · 14/09/2016 10:04

Sounds like fun, count me in!
