Flame you CAn make it! I managed to get to Bournemouth (for you not to turn up- wink wink LOL)- your turn now pmsl

Flame · 26/04/2008 19:53

I checked - says about 1 1/2 hours which is easily doable

Flame · 26/04/2008 19:54

@ the standing up - the kids were rough though, you really wouldn't have wanted it

PeachyHas4BoysAndLovesIt · 26/04/2008 19:59

No you're right I wouldn't! And as I went abck to the tent and created DS4 I shall be eternally grateful LOL

'You're all slim, beautiful and in your early 30s.'

You're kidding right? I have a 19 day old baby. Slim? beautiful? Washed is an achievemnt right now! Mid 30s I can do though.

With the Bristol "yeses" and the 2 of us who could do either we have 12 people
So, who's a Bristolian (?is that a word) and can recommend a place to meet?
A spa, a restaurant, a male strip club?

Oooh dunno Riven, what's in Bristol that you think might work for a load of parents who are a little dazed over a day of freedom?

silverfrog · 26/04/2008 20:47

I'm an anywhere kind of girl (in a strictly meet-up sense, you understand )

I'm actually in Kent (Fio, whereabouts are you? I'm another one with no social life, round the Bedgebury area) but willing ot travel to most places

coppertop · 26/04/2008 20:50

of you lot. To get to Bristol on the train takes about 3hrs, including a change at Birmingham.

I'm in Cambs so would need somewhere more Midlandsy or maybe London.

oiFoiF · 26/04/2008 21:11

might take me several days to get to bristol tbh I used to go there shopping ;as a treat' with me ma and pa too

silverfrog if I was posh i would say i live in whitstable but I am very near. We go to bedgebury though in the holidays. I think i could persuade chocolaterockinghorse to come too (I would have to drive I imagine..) and then there marmadukescarlet (or are you her?)

TotalChaos · 26/04/2008 21:12

could cope with bristol. will have to be with DH and DS, as can't be doing without my personal chauffeur

sphil · 26/04/2008 22:21

What a shame Coppertop. Would love to meet you!

asteamedpoater · 26/04/2008 22:32

Is near Whitstable in Tankerton, then?

ouryve · 27/04/2008 00:14

Karen, I used to live in Gateshead!

A northern meet would be cool

TurtleTuck · 27/04/2008 00:29

Sounds like a great idea! Can you put me on the list for the northern meet. I live in county durham and have transport.

TinySocks · 27/04/2008 07:15

I can do bristol too but it depends when. Do you have any rough idea when the meeting would be? (is in, next week, or next month, or in an couple of months?)

Another update then! I know, a pyschologist would say I'm a control freak. But its making me happy when the rest of my world is chaos. The kids are wild, the house is a mess, even my patients at work do as they like. Am I getting on everyone's nerves then?
(Fio - not sure what you meant, can you come?)
