So I was re-reading the self-esteem thread and it seems to me like we'd have much more fun getting to know each other with a glass of wine in hand and someone else minding the baby. Let's have a night out! Are your diaries already full of festive frolics or can we squeeze a Friday/Sat meet-up in somewhere? 10th/11th Dec any good?

I'm not available that weekend either, but keen in principle. Is a Thursday or another school night out of the question? Or I could do Friday 17th? Or this Sat (4th)? Obviously won't be able to choose a date that works for everyone, so if 11th/12th has more momentum stick with that!

So that's 3 for next Friday? Any advances? Ruth, come & drink a

St Clements with us!


I'd rather do a Fri/Sat night as OH will do the morning after wake-up and I just can't work with any kind of hangover these days but could possibly try (to drink less) a Thursday if better for more folk?

I love the idea of the adventure playground, but with a just 2 year old suspect I'd spend more time leaping after her to prevent death defying leaps etc rather than sitting chatting!!


Doubt I can make 10th/11th - how about 17th/18th or that week in run up to Christmas? Yorkie when do you finish work for the holidays?

Indeed, I was thinking adventure playground more for a family get together. My 16th month old does not stop so my conversations are always half shouted across the room as I try to prevent her escaping from wherever we are!


I'm finishing work on the 17th, OH is not working Xmas Eve for the first time since we've been together so for once we won't be driving up the A1 on Christmas Eve. We're off Oop North on the 22nd but am tied up really the days before.


Shall we bump to January? I'm happy to go out next Friday but I think 3 of us is too few considering the potential for colds/babysitting/poorly babies scuppering mother's plans!

Having been to the main EDF drinks last month I highly recommend it to anyone in the family room looking for a night out in good company. I did know a few people there already which helped, but everyone I spoke to was lovely, it's a very friendly welcoming atmosphere.


I plan to drag at least a few of you with me once I'm back in the UK!

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
