Hi all, sorry for silence. Have had back to back visitors and not really had a chance to get on top of emails, meet ups etc. Currently in a bit of a jam, and hoping someone may be able to help! We are currently on holiday, and have extended our stay until Tuesday but totally forgot that we had borrowed a travel pram from a friend of ours and they have promised it to another friend to take to Oz tomorrow for 6-8 weeks!!!!! ?Don't we feel awful! Anyway, we are desparately trying to find someone who would kindly lend or sell a travel pram for their friend to take to Oz, so if any of you know of anyone please let me know. ?Our friend has put an ad on the EDF, so hopefully someone will respond, but if you have any bright ideas, please drop me a line. ?Looking forward to catching up with some of you when i get back

Oh dear! Sorry don't have any solution, but hope your friends find something.

However my friend has now cancelled our date this afternoon which is great cos it means I can come to the park! See you all in a bit.

I'm in the middle with a white and blue rug!

Just walking past swings. I'm assuming we're meeting in enclosed area outside rose garden with the tree trunks and a few picnic tables?

Anyone there yet? We've got a spotty red and white blanket and a plastic dog for ease of recognition!

Hi everyone,

Wondered if anyone fancied going to the Jubilee Big Picnic Celebration on Tuesday at Aquarius Golf Club. It's on Facebook and will paste in description below:

An all afternoon celebration of Her Majesty's Diamond Jubilee. Loads of space to bring a blanket, and enjoy live music in the great green outdoors of the Aquarius Golf Club. What better way to enjoy the bank holiday! Live music includes local bluegrass/country rebels Country Dirt, and the amazing Steve Boltz & New White Trash.

Finishes at 19.00pm, so you won't be too tired for work on Wednesday!

It starts at 13.00, so I figured it could sort of be the same time as our usual meet. It's local and could be fun. What do you think?

Sounds good. I'm going to whitstable for weekend but not sure when we'll decide to go down or come back. Up for it if around though so I will confirm this weekend.

Hope all's well x

We are planning to head along to this if it's nice weather - I'll keep an eye out (I'll have hubby and two older children in tow)

[stephalanbax]

ooo tempting..

[urchin]

Hey all,

Really looking forward to the Picnic - hold off rain! This is the latest from the organiser:

Today's the day!!!! The rain is definitely arriving sometime it he afternoon, so we're definitely indoors for the live music & fun activities for youngsters. Hopefully the rain will arrive late, and any kids who want to try golf will be able to ahead of the wet weather. See you all there for a brilliant line up of live music, starting around 2.00 pm!!! Let's ROCK the JUBILEE!!!!

So I think it may be a bit more indoor based than originally planned but still looks great. Lou - be great to see Nathan - I've now persuaded Neil to not work today so he'll be coming along too. Hopefully see lots of you there.

Love Linz x

Hi,

Hope you've all enjoyed the Jubilee celebrations!

I've got a 3 1/2 month old (25th Feb) and would love to meet some other mums in the area.

I think I may have met a couple of you at the Nct coffee mornings but would be great to meet up / share

Baby stories etc. on a regular basis.

Beth

[Mum2be]

Are any of you new mummies looking to go back to work soon or thinking about child care ? I am a nanny with child my little boy is 7 weeks old and I am looking to return to work around September time would anyone be interested in meeting up to discuss what I can offer . It's a great way to nanny shear without involving another family I am cheaper than a nanny but a little more than a shear

Please pm any questions

Hi all,

Hope everyone's well and enjoyed the extended weekend (everyday is a weekend for us though right?)

Anyway there are some WBC coming to The House of Tippler for my delayed 30th, engagement and general night out celebration.

Please do come and have a cocktail if you can be released from duties.

I'll be there from 7ish this fri (8th June) and I have reserved the whole back section.

Some of my NCT mum friends will be there too so should we miss our babies too much, there will be new mums to talk to!

Partners obviously also welcome.
