Could you post if:

A) You have booked and received a confirmation by email.

B) You have sent the form and cheque but have not had confirmation of your booking.

Or

C) Intend to book but have not yet sent the form/cheque.

Moondog has received 12 bookings so far, but I have had 26 forms requested.

If Moondog receives less than 15 bookings the event can't go ahead, so she may have to open it up to people from other places, but ideally we'd like to keep it to MNSN only.

I'm trying to get an idea of who else wants to come Smile

ABA is the establishment in our neck of the woods.
It is the fast diminishing gang who practice touchy feely non measurable throw-it-at-the-wall-and-hope-some-of-it-sticks who are the odd ones!

Chilli Grin and ABA and the geese....

signandsingcarols · 07/06/2014 19:48

can i ask a favour, (primarily to moonday and lovely colleague, but to everyone else too) I met up with a friend yesterday who is looking to start ABA, (ds with asd diagnosis, possibly DAMP) I would love her to meet with you guys who have some experience of ABA and allied approaches, would you mind if she joined us for the lunch break? just to chat and maybe ask a few questions about people's experiences.

I recognise that moondog and the LC might want to switch off during the break and others might want to keep it to the group without anyone else joining so I am completely fine if any of you would prefer not to, (and if you wanted to pm to say if you are not comfy with it that would be fine too)

just thought I would ask...

Have decided to stay at hotel the night before (it's a bit further than I thought) therefore please can you put me down for a chilli? YUM YUM!!!!

excited Smile

moondog · 08/06/2014 08:39

lougle · 08/06/2014 09:47

I am A x 3 (2 non-mumsnettters) I will check on the chilli situation. Should I bring my rice cooker? With rice? Cake?

Hands out Wine Cake and massive apologies.

I've had my form. DS has had more fits/seizures lately and things have just got away from me. I fully intended to come but can't get anyone to have him overnight or with me so far away.
We now have a date for EEG and it's after that weekend so I'm not able to make it.

I'm really relieved to see it's going ahead. I was at the point when it was 14 people of paying but not coming as felt so guilty.

Can someone take me notes please? Grin

lougle · 10/06/2014 20:36

Oh youare Sad I'm sorry that your DS is having seizures. Of course we'll take notes.

moondog · 10/06/2014 20:50

Sorry to hear that You are. Sad
Did you book already (sorry, not good at matching RL names to MN names)? If so, I haven't cashed any cheques yet (on to do list for tomorrow) so if you did, let me know and I will destroy it.
Wishing your ds the best.
We realize that for so many of you, leaving the children is not easy.

StarlightMcKenzie · 10/06/2014 20:57

Staying at home with them whilst your DH goes and learns stuff whilst eating homemade chilli isn't easy either.........

Hope you get to the bottom of things youare

lougle · 11/06/2014 07:18

Star, that's a real sacrifice Sad We're definitely going to have to have a social meet up.

signandsingcarols · 11/06/2014 20:12

atomic ooo ys pls to rice and rice cooker... I am just gonna plug the slow cooker full of chilli, and bring chunks of baguette, but will have spare socket for rice cooker, would be nice for people to have choice of rice or bread.

and of course any cake contributions welcome... Grin Grin

star... will def deliver chilli next time we up with MiL Grin

StarlightMcKenzie · 11/06/2014 20:19

Actually, it is more like staying at home with 3 young kids whilst your DH goes off and plays with all of your friends, eats their delicious food and discusses your favourite topics.....................

Folks, please bring a pencil, rubber and green and red and yellow pencils/felt tips with you.
All set now. Putting final touches to our materials. :)
Hope the sun shines like this tomorrow.
Perhaps an al fresco TAGteach session?!

lougle · 12/06/2014 16:06

Whoaaaaa - hold on! Last minute instructions, set to trip us up no doubt. Well they're not beating me. Wink

Alfresco TAGteach? Sounds sublime.

Was going to bring tortillas for chilli? Does anyone want those?

Also was going to get some fun size bars/chocs of some sort you know, to keep the old cogs going Wink

lougle · 12/06/2014 16:42

What time should I wheel in the hog roast? Grin

Heheh at you lot. Quite right too. Food-and lots of it- always foremost in my mind. No sorry, not tomorrow if course but day after. Rare appearence of dub has done odd things to me.

AtomicMitten · 13/06/2014 11:42

I will bring rice and cooker.
