I'm sorry I couldn't makke the meet up on Saturday, I bumped into Tomo at the playground on Sunday and she said how lovely it was to meet up. I work full time so can't manage weekdays, but am around with toddler most weekends or could do toddler free evenings if anyone fancies that?

Hi there,

I agree. It was lovely to meet new people on Saturday. I rushed home to tell my husband that actually the 'nub theory' holds much more promise than I originally thought!

I'd be keen to meet again, but as i work full time an evening or weekend is best for me.

Maybe we could arrange a pizza night at the actress? Or a quick dinner at The Victoria again one evening.

I hope everyone is well.

speak soon

SJK.

Sorry to have missed you all last weekend but look forward to meeting soon.


I also work full time so weekdays are difficult for me. Weekends are easiest for me (between toddler classes...) or very happy to try to make an evening (work permitting) as SJK suggests.


Intrigued to hear about the 'nub theory' too...

Tuesday 23rd during day would be good for me and toddler. Another weekend/evening would also be great to catchup with the working mums to be, pizza at Actress sounds like a fab idea or Vic Inn again.


Couple of dates to get it rolling, purely pulled out the hat if they don't accommodate people other suggestions welcome Thurs 25th Sept or Sat 27th?

It's my wedding anniversary 25th too! Could do 27th potentially although I'm saying that having not checked with my husband... Actually he's out on Friday night so I am owed a night out...although I'm working all day Saturday so might end up flopping with tiredness. In theory I love the idea of an evening, generally can't do Monday to Thursday nights because of evening teaching so Friday to Sunday best for me.

I'm free on Tuesday 23rd during the day, morning without toddler, afternoon with...is that still in the mix?

Hello everyone - I am SO excited to find this thread! I have a 2.5 year old toddler (boy) and am expecting my second around 11th December. So happy to see so many second timers, and looking forward to meeting some first time mum's too!


Unfortunately I'm also working full time, although I work from home on Fridays so I can usually arrange my day so I can nip out for a bit, and will try and make any weekend meet ups. I go on maternity leave from the 7th November (have saved up loads of holiday, hooray!), so will be much easier then!


My son is currently in nursery 4 days a week, but we're taking him down to 2 days a week from November as it's just too expensive for us to leave him in longer than that... but he's so happy there I don't really want to take him out, so hoping we can make that work. Will be interesting juggling him and a new born... gulp!


I saw a few dates banded about - I could make the 19th or the 27th if those go ahead. I'm away on the 4th, so won't be able to make that one.


Really looking forward to meeting up - I had the best time on my last maternity leave as there were so many like minded people around, so looking forward to this one being every bit as good! Although I am nervous about having a new born in the winter... my son was born in March and it was so easy getting out and about in the spring! I feel it'll take a bit more effort this time round...


Hope you're all well - look forward to meeting you!

AnyaJoeli - I keep telling myself that at least swaddling will be easier (I hope... my son hated it!) and that because it's dark maybe it'll be easier to get back to sleep... um... and by the time the summer comes we'll be well out of the newborn phase so we'll make the most of being out and about... Or am I completely clutching at straws?!!

Hi All,


I would love to join a group as we are moving to Honor Oak Park next month and don't know many people in the area. I am a first timer and due Decemember 16th. Would be great to meet some mom friends! :) I just got back from Holiday and read this post but I am free during the day so hopefully can come to the next meet up.

Hi everyone - lovely to find so many other expecting ladies - i'm due around christmas time so would love to meet up with you all. I work from home so am pretty flexible with days and times.. just let me know what dates you all decide on. I also have a dog so am always around for early morning or late afternoon dog walks too if anyone fancies a walk and chat.. either ruskin park/brockwell or dulwich park. carolynnx

Hi All, just came across this post on the forum. I am expecting my first baby on the 17th January. I am still working full time, planning to work until Xmas, so I am only available in the evenings or weekends.

I saw a post about yoga, I am going to Yogarise in Pechkam on Tuesday evening, Yazmin is really good, but I will try to make it on Saturday mornings to Gaia as recommended above.

It would be lovely to meet up, I hope I can make it to the second meeting!

Hi there, I hope everyone is well.

I thought I'd write as there are a few more people joining up and it would be lovely to have another meet-up.

I know it's tricky for some to do in the week because of work commitments, so what about a weekend again?

I'm trying to scroll back over the thread as I know some had holidays and so on booked in. I think the dates below are free, but I may well stand corrected.


We could do:


Saturday 11 October for morning coffee (I will probably need to bring toddler).


OR:


Saturday 18 October - we go crazy and have a Saturday night meet up in The Actress ( I will most definitely be leaving toddler at home ;-)) They do a mean pizza so we could treat ourselves! (And I am persistently starving so this is all good!)


Does anyone fancy either of these, or both?

I couldn't make the last meet-up but I'd still love to meet some other mums. I can do the 11th Oct (might even be toddler-free as my parents are visiting that weekend! oooh what a treat ;-)

Can't make the 18th though so ditto what Joanna 77 said - if the 18th works better for everyone else I'll come to the next one :-)

    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • 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.
