    Sounds like a brilliant idea Tara.
    Would you like to be in charge of organisation? ;)
    Can everyone escape the children? (or want to escape them?)

    hello all :D

    how is everyone ?? I had a very long day at work and am going to have an early night, but thought I would pop on quickly and say hello to you all xx

    Tara YEAH for DS staying at home :D and I think a mummy meet would be lovely, but money is tight at the minute with me so not sure how feasable it would be as I cant see us even getting a family holiday this year :( Lets hope I get a super dooper bonus before then !!

    Some may not want to, I on the other hand understand the importance of my time so will probably run out of the door! :rotfl:Organisation, I'm happy to look into some hotels but will leave each person (or 2's) to book their own as I'm not taking any financial responsibilities. :p But we all need to suggest where?

    Oh I forgot, I mentioned to Dora that I would love to come up for a summer meet and also that I thought, *waits to be shot down* that we 'all' deserve a break, and I think a weekend somewhere, roundabout Birmingham, without the children!!! :eek:

    Argh, so tough!!

    I can escape, and I can escape without Benjamin...but I love meeting all the babies when I meet any of you guys.

    There are loads of good deals knocking around ATM. Cheap Travelodge deals etc - I have one booked for £22 in a few weeks time. I also have a De Vere Venue Hotel booked for £19 per night on a Sat and Sunday :D


    Best go sort myself out - on site pretty much all day tomorrow. Catch you tomorrow night xxx

    I would love a meet with babies too. :( This could be an extra later in the year, with some Xmas shopping thrown in.

    Do you think it will be those of us with 3+ children will be the keenest to escape them? :rotfl:

    Although as MFD said, I do love to meet everyone elses gorgeous babies.


    I'm sure someone computer-clever could produce a UK map, that all of those interested could access and put a pin in where we live - then it could calculate the most central point for everyone?


    On that note, i'm off to bed. My eyes are closing all on their own. :(

    just need to convince DH although....we could go as a little family and i could meet everyone for drinkies and leave DH and Kian in the hotel.

    must find out if i can get cheap hotels through work.
