NOW CLOSED: MN event at Mothercare Edmonton: Thurs 9th May 2-5pm: come along: nibbles and goody bag to be had.....

[AnnMumsnet]

You may know we are working with Mothercare on a range of projects this year.

Following a webchat with their CEO we are now recruiting MNers to go along to the flagship Edmonton (North London) store for a special event.

Here's some info about this unique store: www.mothercare.com/mothercare-edmonton-store/edmonton-store,default,pg.html

At the event you'll be taken on a tour of the store and receive expert advice from Mothercare's trained staff and parenting consultant. You'll be able to see all the latest collections and meet some of their buyers and play with the toys in Early Learning Centre!

Also drinks and nibbles will be served and each attending MNer will get a goody bag...as well as (hopefully) some surprises.

In return we'd love you to add your feedback and photos from the event about the store on a thread on Mumsnet. Take your smart phone or camera along and you'll be able to add a photo to the feedback thread. As a thank you for attending there will be a prize draw for a £50 Mothercare voucher to be won by one MNer who adds their feedback or photo to the thread.

If you are able to attend please can you add your details on this form so we can put you on the list.

I somehow misplaced my oyster and DS's raincover so we missed it :(

Did I miss anything good? Tell me it was rubbish? :)

[youmaycallmeSSP]

Oh so that was you. I was slumming it in muddy boots :o

Not close here sadly, we only just got home. It took an hour to get out of London. No wonder people who actually live there don't drive!

[TantrumsAndBalloons]

Yep, that's the loud parenting.

No you cannot get into the bed. Because I said so. Because its a display. JUST GET OFF

Mine have large hair too.

DS1 is growing his hair because he wants cornrows.
I want to shave it off whilst he is sleeping.

[TantrumsAndBalloons]

You just can't keep away MrsD

Imagine, we may have bumped into each other in Tesco or ikea!

Just look out for the person with one teenage daughter walking 2 feet ahead, texting like mad, one teenage son walking 2 feet behind with headphones and a cap on in case anyone sees him and me doing "loud parenting" north london stylee

[TantrumsAndBalloons]

I live round the bloody corner from Edmonton Mothercare.
But....my children are too old. 9,14 and 15 means I have not been in Mothercare for ages.
It's not fair.

I wish I had just passed by and played "spot the mumsnetters"

Do you all live nearby then?? Do I have mumsnetter neighbours??

[youmaycallmeSSP]

All the MNers I saw were very glam; please tell me you all dressed up for the occasion!

[youmaycallmeSSP]

Just leaving now. Amazing store!

[janx]

Sorry I am not going to make it - have to go into work (on my day off!)

[Rockyolive]

I'm really sorry, I filled in the form to say I could go but now I am unable to. My husband is starting a new job which I am very pleased about but it means he can't pick up the children from school and nursery. Hope everyone has fun. x

[AmazingBouncingFerret]

I'd love to come but Mothercare closed my profit making early learning centre shop and made me redundant so now I can't afford it

[AnnMumsnet]

ilove - yes no probs! Put your name down!!!

[iloveshortshorts]

Would love to go if i got there at 2pm would have to leave in half hour to get back to south london to babysit by 4pm.

Would i still be able to get a goody bag?

[AnnMumsnet]

[janx]

I think I can make it. But are my kids too old 8&5? Thanks

[Eastie77]

I'd like to come along and have signed up. Do I have to wait for e-mail confirmation before attending or can I just turn up?

Thanks,
E
