Yet again I can't find the thread we started! Shall we meet up again? How about Feb 4th or 18th as a suggestion to get the ball rolling?

bambi - please come It would be lovely to meet you and everyone is so friendly! I have only been to 1 meet up and was really nervous, was thinking of excuses to pull out at last minute.
I felt so relaxed that I left a lot later than I should as we all had so much to talk about!

Oh yes Merlot. I never ever saw the connection. Maybe I should change my name to Chardonnay

Socci, you asked where we normally meet but we've only done it twice and in different places. The last time we met at the Royal Academ in Piccadilly which I suggested so I think is a good place! What does everyone think? If not the RA then where? 18th suits me but how many of us is that now and I think Lou said 4th would be better for her.
Much as I like the idea of meeting up somewhere and staying overnight I can't see me being able to do it. I wouldn't leave DH with DS AND DD who are both demanding in their own way (9 yrs with ASD and 22 mos have some similar levels!). I don't mind going out of Town if we could think of somewhere that would work.
Someone take charge please!

Shall I come and see you?!
Could come on a Saturday?
I don't think they're that frequent. I didn't make the last one.

beccaboo · 18/01/2005 20:52

I'd really like to come too. Can do 4th or 18th. Royal Academy suits me, or anywhere else in London. Socci, wish you were coming!
