When And Where For The Next Hunter Meet

[Gumby]

Just Thought I Would Throw Together A Poll With Some Places And Dates For The Next Meet :d

[mummyof5]

Hehe, I just ticked all the places, as I am not fussy!! Can't do Tuesday - 1st day of school for Serena :smiliedance: , and Thursday is Jocko's 1st day of preschool - poor staff have no idea what is about to hit them :laughing: . Is there cover att the foreshore? Cause ths weather is a bit hot otherwise.
C'mon girls, we need to make a decision!!

[mummyof5]

OOps, think I marked th days i can't do instead of the ones I can!!!:o Having one of those days!!!

[Shanaynay]

Ok, well I ticked Monday and Friday.

Tuesday is no good for me.

Wednesday and Thursday I can do if you decide to have it on those days, but Mon and Fri are better :)

I'm happy with any place, I ticked all of them except the Maitland Cafe, only cuz I need to get outta here! :p

[Wondermum]

At this stage I'm easy with days apart from Thurs as it's my Birthday and I think the other half may have plans to take the day off to do something special.

All of the locations are great but if I had to pick out of two it would be the foreshore park or smartypants.

~ Jess ~

[Hathor]

Hi guys just wondering if I would be welcome to come to your meet up?

[Gumby]

Hi guys just wondering if I would be welcome to come to your meet up?



No way..lol jk, more than welcome :D

[Veritas]

Pretty sure there are the old train sheds at the foreshore park with plenty of shade!

[mummyof5]

At this stage I'm easy with days apart from Thurs as it's my Birthday and I think the other half may have plans to take the day off to do something special.
~ Jess ~

Jess you lucky bugger - mine's tomorrow and I'll be lucky if he even gets home from Sydney before 7!! At least it's a long weekend, and now he doesn't have to go to sea next week, so can't complain really:no: .

KK, great news about the train sheds, so the foreshore is sounding like the place to go to...and Monday is looking good for a get together before school goes back:yes: .

[Shanaynay]

Kylie, happy birthday for tomorrow :D :party:

And yep, plenty of shade at the foreshore :yes:

Hey Karrie, I bought some purple dye the other day s I can make Evie a singlet like Piper's! Can't wait to do it!

[Gumby]

Kylie, happy birthday for tomorrow :D :party:

And yep, plenty of shade at the foreshore :yes:

Hey Karrie, I bought some purple dye the other day s I can make Evie a singlet like Piper's! Can't wait to do it!

Haha me too. You started a trend Karrie.
I am good for anywhere but would prefer thursday.

[Wondermum]

Jess you lucky bugger - mine's tomorrow and I'll be lucky if he even gets home from Sydney before 7!! At least it's a long weekend, and now he doesn't have to go to sea next week, so can't complain really

happybirthday for tomorrow Kylie happybirthday

Sounds like you'll have plenty of time to spend with your DH over the next week Valentine

[Veritas]

Haha me too. You started a trend Karrie.

haha you know i think amy did too... i'm easy for any day!

[mummyof5]

Thanks guys! It's nice to feel loved! Just had a bit of a birthday dinner at my sisters, so not shaping up too bad for tomorrow afterall!
If Thursday is better for next week, just put me down for the next one instead. Though if it's not on Thursday, I will be in Singleton then, Rian if you want a coffee, as early intervention goes back that day too.

[Shanaynay]

Have a great day tomorrow Kylie!


So it looks like the Foreshore, and either Monday or Thursday :)

[Luisa]

Ok I voted...

I need to get out... but Friday is the best day for me...

If its hot when you meet can I suggest not going to the Foreshore as it does get quite crouded there.

[Gumby]

Happy birthday kylie happybirthday :party:

Sure thing for thursday if ur in town would love you to pop in for a cuppa :D

[mummyof5]

Thanks Ladies...am having a pretty good day actually, except for one of my 3 month old kittens weeing on my bed at 4am this morning!:eek:

So, any decisions made yet???:D

[Shanaynay]

Someone make a decision! I say foreshore, either Monday or Thurday cuz of poll results!

happybirthday again Kylie :D
Ooooo kittens... I love kittens!

[Gumby]

I am all for thursday @ the foreshore..

[benji's_mum]

Is this meet open to anyone, I'd like to come along.

:wave:

[Shanaynay]

Hi benji's mum, of course it is! We would love to have you come along!

[benji's_mum]

Yay! I'll be there.

[Shanaynay]

Look forward to meeting you Benji's mum!

So looks like it's the FORESHORE for sure....

now what day?
We have an equal amount of votes for the Mon and the Thurs...

who can't make it on which day? I can make either day, but do prefer Monday. But if having it on Monday meant someone couldn't come, I'll happily go down on the Thursday :thumbsup:

[MrsTwith3]

Am I allowed to show my ugly mug there too????:laughing:
Just a thought on which day. The older kids go back to school on Tuesday which means if its Monday we have to drag our older ones along:rolleyes:

Mel

[Shanaynay]

:smiliedance: another Hunter Mum!!!

Re: the school kids - well all you ladies with the school-aged children, let us know if it's easier if the older ones are at school then :thumbsup:

[MrsTwith3]

It doesnt really matter to me as its only 1 at school, if anything she is a great help to have around...lol. Im easy to whatever day.

[Wondermum]

Monday was looking like a better day for me until the dishwasher handle decided to snap :banghead: so now I have the repair guy calling Monday morning to arrange to come around on Monday :rolleyes: Thursday is my Birthday - would love to :party: with you all if my other half hasn't got plans????

I know it hasn't got many votes but what about a Wednesday or Friday?

[Shanaynay]

Friday still has a few votes - I can do Friday, Friday is a great day for me.............how does Friday sound to everyone else?

[Wondermum]

:yes: Friday is good for me too!

[MrsTwith3]

Yep good for me too:thumbsup:

[jkate]

I am out for Friday, but thats cool - I will try and make another one soon. And hope to catch up with lots of you at the central coast meet in Feb.:yes:

[Gumby]

Now I dont know what day is good for me. I cant wednesday because its my daughters first day @ big school. I would have prefered thursday because its pay day but unfortunalty my ex (who has treated me like garbage for yrs) has dropped in for 2 weeks, with his staffy dog and decided he will stay til hes ready. Dp and I are scared ****less and feel like prisoners in our own home, BUT anyway so until I can built up the courage to kick him out I wont be going anywhere :(

[Wondermum]

If Thursday is a better day for the majority of people go ahead with that day and I'll just try and catch the next Hunter meet.

Rian sorry to hear you're not in a good situation atm with your house guest.... I have to say I like Staffy's tho as I have 2 :D

[Shanaynay]

Aaaaaghrh this is so complicated... lol!

Wondermum - thurs is actually a bad day for me, but if it is on that day I will try to make it anyway.... so I'd prefer another day too....

So I think we have Jkat who can't come on Fri.
Wondermum can't come on Thurs.
Harry's mum.... you still around?

Rian - what a ******* of an ex :mad:
But how exciting about DD starting school!

[MrsTwith3]

Im easy but dont tell anyone...lol
Any day suits me:yes:

[jkate]

Don't worry about me ladies, not going to be able to afford two trips to Newcastle this week (have my uncles 60th next week). Will try to make the next meet :yes:

[mummyof5]

I can't do Thursday, pre school starts for Jock, and Bronte goes back to early intervention. Tuesday is out too, as Serena is off to big school.
Monday I can do, Friday as well. Wednesday I would rather not.
How about Friday, as having looked back through the posts, sems to suit a few of us...
Rian, do you think you might have ejected the ex by then??? I can come round and help on Thurs while Bronte is at early intervention if you like!!!:yes:
What do you think Ladies?? We can have a belated happybirthday for Wondermum then too!!!

[Gumby]

Ok so ex is now out this sunday :yelclap: His sis come round and told him to leave because its not fair on me. So thursday or friday is good for me :D

Come round thursday kylie if the meet isnt then :D

[mum2mady]

Hi

The days that are best for me are either thursday or friday it doesnt bother me what day.....


from Tracey

[Veritas]

Friday is good for me too!

[mummyof5]

I vote we make it Friday then!!! At the foreshore...now if someone can just tell me where exactly that is:o , it'll be all good.
By the way, I will have 6 empty seats, including one empty baby seat if anyone needs picking up.:yes:
Rian, will definately come by on Thursday if everyone is happy for the meet on Friday:D .
Gees I love getting put of the house!!!:smiliedance:

[Gumby]

Ok so the ex has changed his mind again but I told him if he doesnt leave I will call the police. Friday is good for me. Lets do it.

[Shanaynay]

FRIDAY!!!

Ok it's settled. We'll do Friday, and anyone who can't make it can pick which day next time :D How does that sound?

We aren't supposed to say exactly what time and what place (incase of freaky internet stalkers), so let's just say the Foreshore (it's a big place so we'll PM for exact spot) and in the morning before it gets hot? (we'll PM for exact time)
How does that sound?

Oh Rian, :hugs: what a loser of an ex (aren't they all?) I'm praying everything works out!

[MrsTwith3]

Woohoo Friday it is then:smiliedance: . Can I say im a widdle bit scared:o

[Gumby]

Woohoo Friday it is then:smiliedance: . Can I say im a widdle bit scared:o

Hehe you should be, we are SOOOOO scary..lol...
Naw all the ladies are great "myself included :D"

[Veritas]

Cool... friday it is....

Em & Callans Mum - I was a wee bit nervous before I met all these lovely gals a couple of weeks ago....

Rian - Good luck with the ex.... makes me glad that mine has bowed out completely... but your always that little bit sceptical of exactly what they are capable of.... :hugs:

[Shanaynay]

Em & Callan's mum - I met some of these wonderful ladies 2 weeks ago and I'm still nervous this time! :o Honestly, you could not wish to meet a more wonderful lot of mums!

Kaz - your avatar is so cute! Are they mushy peas, like you get in the can? Always looking for something new to try with Evie - she's a bit fussy!

Zoe.

[Gumby]

:yelclap: FRIDAY

[MrsTwith3]

Rian Ive already been tod how scary you are....lol
I'll be big and brave Im sure, just hope my little terror behaves himself and doesnt attack too many of the other kiddies:banghead:

Mel

[Veritas]

Kaz - your avatar is so cute! Are they mushy peas, like you get in the can? Always looking for something new to try with Evie - she's a bit fussy!

Zoe.

Yep... just peas cooked up and whizzed... added some rice cereal too... she loved them!!

[Gumby]

Rian Ive already been tod how scary you are....lol
I'll be big and brave Im sure, just hope my little terror behaves himself and doesnt attack too many of the other kiddies:banghead:

Mel

Oh I see :devil6: The rumours are tru ;)

[mummyof5]

Oh, Rian, your reputation preceeds you...:p

So who is doing the pm'ing?? I'd volunteer, but I don't actually know where we are going.:D You know something really exciting, I get to come with only 1 child!!:yelclap:

[Gumby]

Oh, Rian, your reputation preceeds you...:p

So who is doing the pm'ing?? I'd volunteer, but I don't actually know where we are going.:D You know something really exciting, I get to come with only 1 child!!:yelclap:

I only have 2 :smiliedance: hehe

[Wondermum]

:yelclap: Yay...you've all come to a decision.... FRIDAY!!!!

We were actually at the foreshore today enjoying the the sunshine and the Australia Day festivities :)

[Wondermum]

What do you think Ladies?? We can have a belated happybirthday for Wondermum then too!!!

Haha.....if you do Kylie then you'll be included too :yes: twas your birthday yesterday!!!! I feel a little funny....haven't even met you lot before! :o

[Shanaynay]

I will PM :yes:

Do we all agree on a morning meet before it gets too hot?

[Wondermum]

Do we all agree on a morning meet before it gets too hot?

Oh....:eek: so this means I have to actually get out of my p-j's as soon as I get up huh? :D

I'll sit back and see what time the others who are traveling furtherest prefer.

[Shanaynay]

Good idea... that would prob be Rian & Em & Callan's mum I think??

I'm fine with anytime really - who needs to make it a particular time?

[Gumby]

Yes before it gets hot sounds good. I wont be able to leave here til about 930ish so any time after about 1030ish is good for me...

[MrsTwith3]

It will take me about 45mins to get there and I have to get Em to school first for 9am so around 10ish or after is fine for me too.
Im bringing another bubhubber with me, Sweetpea20977 (Trish) and her little girl Georgia as well.
Im dragging her along for moral support:laughing:

Mel

[Shanaynay]

Are you scared of us Mel...:detective:

:p

[Wondermum]

Oh you lucky thing Mel!!! I'm going to be rocking up all by myself :crying: I haven't met anyone apart from Amy a very long time ago!

[mummyof5]

Never fear ladies, we don't bite...(well only sometimes:devil6: :laughing: ).
So shall we say 10.15 or so, then we should all be able to make it roughly on time?
Should we put up some sort of decoration or something to make it easier to spot us??? cause I am useless at finding people in crowds and stuff.
Are we all gonna bring a plate of something naughty, or just our own stuff or what? I don't mind doing a bit of baking:chef:.
What do you all think?

[Shanaynay]

I'll bring a plate of something yummy :D

Kylie, are you familiar with the foreshore park at all? Where we will meet, I think it will be pretty easy to spot each other.

Plus I will be catching the train and therefore have my pram... and my pram is BRIGHT PINK so everyone should at least be able to spot me :laughing:

[mummyof5]

Cool, so I just look for the bright pink pram, that shouldn't be too hard.
No, Zoe, never been there. Haven't a clue where I am going - thank god for street directories. Do they have parking?? If you want a lift, i will have one empty baby seat, plus an empty anchor bolt for another baby seat, so just let me know - then you can direct:D .

[Shanaynay]

Kylie, if I'm on your way through (I think I am?-Maitland) I'd love a lift :yes:
DH will have the car that day and I don't mind catching trains, but would love a lift if that's ok, spesh if it's going to be hot!
Then there's no chance of you getting lost :p

[Gumby]

I will prob be there about 1030. I also have a spare 2 seats if anyone needs a lift. I have a place where we can meet where everyone should know where it is.
I will bring a plate too...

[Veritas]

Cool... 10.30 suits me too...

Kylie - There is parking but remember to bring some coins as its all metered in the CBD....

[mummyof5]

No worries Zoe, just pm me with your address. I like the idea of taking someonewho knows where they are going:yes: .
Thanks Kaz, will stock up on the gold stuff!
10.30 sounds like a good time if you are all happy with that.
Can't wait to meet some other BHer's as well.:smiliedance:

[MrsTwith3]

No Im not really scared of you ladies at all. Just me being a bit shy and nervous is all.
Ive been out shopping today and got the ingredients to make a yummy birthday cake for Jess and I think it was Kylie as well from memory(correct me if Im wrong).
I'll bring a plate of something yummy as well.

Mel

[Wondermum]

You're such a sweetie Mel :hugs:

Sounds good - I'll bring a plate of something too.

So I'm guessing Zoe will just PM the exact details later? Might be a good idea to try PM all the Hunter locals just in case they're not checking the thread? It would be lovely to meet everyone.

[MrsTwith3]

Jess you know your special and deserve atleast a cake:hugs:

[Shanaynay]

Ok, I've just looked thru the last few threads to see who is interested in meetups, so I will PM:

holchajam
wondermum
karma kaz
harry's mum
princ3ssah
mum2mady
mummyof5
littlegreenfrog
hathor
luisa
benji's mum
em's&callansmum
sweetpea20977
jkat ( i think karen said she wouldn't be able to make this particular meet, but i will send her the PM anyway incase she is able to make it)


Have I forgotten anyone?

Sending PM's now :wizard:

[Wondermum]

Zoe that's cool.... if I think of anyone else I'll just forward it onto them too.

[mummyof5]

Wow, what a big list of us there is now!! Hope lots of us can get there on friday!:yes:

Now, what to bake???

[Areca]

I will try and make it! Friday's DD has swimming lessons from 10-10.30am but if she doesn't need a nap we'll come for sure! It's really close to where I live and I'd love to meet some bubhub members!!

Just wondering how long you think it will go for (just so that if DD does nap and wakes up wether to still go or not).

[Areca]

Just wanted to add...for those driving and unsure of parking. I think it's pretty well all paid parking but if you park in Nobby's carpark is 4 hour carpark for free and you only have to cross the road and you'll see where the meet is.
There's also a pedestrian island in the middle of the road so it's pretty easy to cross over too!

[Shanaynay]

mumtoone - I just sent you the PM with exact details of when/where :smiliedance:

We'd love it if you can make it!

I'm not sure how long we will all be there for - it all depends on the kiddies doesn't it! lol
mummyof5 is giving me a lift down so I will leave when she needs to.
If you like, you can SMS me to see how things are going (my mob number is in that PM) if DD does decide to have a nap.

ETA: If anyone else would like the PM about Friday, just post here and I'll send it to you. The more the merrier :D

[Wondermum]

Zoe I had PM'd a few others incl. mumtoone I think. So I think most Hunter mums have been notified now.

[MrsTwith3]

Was just thinking that maybe Kangaskippy might like an invite as well. She is at Morisset.

[Luisa]

Ok Im up for coming... I will be walking and with the bonus of only having one child with me instead of 3... YAY...

I wont be down there till 11ish I think as I have an appointment on Darby Street at 10.30....

Oh How long are you all looking at staying?

[Wondermum]

Was just thinking that maybe Kangaskippy might like an invite as well. She is at Morisset.

:yes: I've PM'd her already. I'm pretty sure I covered everyone.

[Gumby]

Maybe we should open it up to the central coaters too seeing I am travelling 1 hour to get there (which I dont mind of course) and it is about the same or maybe less for ppl on the central coast :D

[Wondermum]

Maybe we should open it up to the central coaters too seeing I am travelling 1 hour to get there (which I dont mind of course) and it is about the same or maybe less for ppl on the central coast :D

Yeah.... one HUGE bubhub meet :party: :D

[Roopee]

Oh i would love to come (thanks for the PM Wondermum) BUT my baby is due in 3 days (hurry baby hurry) and i dont think i will be able to make it to this one unfortunately.

HOPEFULLY the next one i'll be there:fingerscrossed:

[Shanaynay]

Oh Roopee wow!!! All the best for the birth!
We'd love to see you next time with bubba in arms!

[Wondermum]

Roopee :yelclap: all the best on the birth of your little girl!

You have a wonderful little mix of children now :yes:

[Areca]

Thanks guys! I have the details and will sms if DD has a nap first to see if you are all still there!

[H&B'sMum]

Sorry everyone, I'm out. I work on Friday's have a great day. Sounds like a big one. Wish I could be there. Oh well :(

[Shanaynay]

Sorry everyone, I'm out. I work on Friday's have a great day. Sounds like a big one. Wish I could be there. Oh well :(
Nooooooooooo :(
Hopefully you can make the next one :thumbsup:

Luisa - Not sure how long we will be staying but I say we'll be there quite a bit after your appointment!

Holchajam - great idea - maybe we should put a link to this thread in the Central Coast section?

[Hathor]

I should be able to make it :)
I don't mean to be so unsociable on here just been caught up in a few RL things iykwim.

Looking forward to meeting some of you lovely ladies.

[mum2mady]

I was wondering if we had a back up plan as foxtel says 23 degrees and raining the only day of the week hopefully they are wrong as sometimes it changes through the week.

Looking forward to meeting u all. U will definately pick me i have a pink stroller.

Good point.... hmmm Smarty Pants maybe?

I might get you mixed up with Zoe - pink stroller ladies! :laughing:

[Gumby]

Oh good idea for a back up plan. I have no idea where smarty pants is though.

[mummyof5]

Nah, me either. hopefully Zoe does, since she's playing navigator!!:yes:

[Areca]

Smarty pants is in Darby St. I have never been there but from memory it's just past the gym (don't want to say the name on a public forum) in Darby St.
Don't quote me on that last bit though!

[Gumby]

I will need smarty pants directions plz :D

[MrsTwith3]

Me too since Im coming from the coast and dont know newy all that well.

[Shanaynay]

I know where the gym is in Darby St :thumbsup:

So what does the weather forecast look like?

What does everyone prefer if it rains? Smarty pants or undercover under the train sheds at the Foreshore? :detective:

[Shanaynay]

Pancake Day! (Click!;) ) (http://209.85.127.150/community/forums/showthread.php?p=1056125&posted=1#post1056125)

[Luisa]

Darby Street is very easy to find...

As you drive along King St you will come to a set of traffic lights where there is a pub opposite (its Irish) You turn right and enter darby st.... Smartypantz is right down the end of darby street on the left side..

If this is too detailed please let me know and i will delete it :D

[Veritas]

Ok what exactly is smarty pants???

[Gumby]

Oh I dont know where the train shed is now :( I thought it was the bus shelters @ the train station. I dont think we will let the kids play there... Haha
Oh I am going to get so lost. LETS JUST GO TO THE IRISH PUB :shame:

Anyone care to meet me someone where??? PLZ....

[Gumby]

Zoe thnx for the link to PANCAKE DAY. Hint hint nudge nudge *check it out*

[Veritas]

Oh I dont know where the train shed is now :( I thought it was the bus shelters @ the train station. I dont think we will let the kids play there... Haha

Sure... but where are we going now... I'm confused... :confused:

[Luisa]

Ok the train sheds are across the road from Nobby's beach...

There is a large park... You cant miss the park!.... Walk through the pak and you will see the train sheds and a childrens play area.... If you get to Newcastle Train Station you have gone too far :D

SmartyPantz is the new indoor education play centre in Newcastle... I havent been there yet but It looks really good :D Hop this helps :D

[The MOnkey]

Hi everyone, Im a first time poster long time lurker :wave:
This is my last week of freedom before I start my new TAFE course and I am trying to make the most of it.
Do you have any final plans for Friday yet?

[Luisa]

Hi monkey

The plan is so far, The Trainsheds at the foreshore on friday at a time ... il pm you the time!

Back up is Smartypantz i think!

[mummyof5]

Yep, thats what I thought it was too Luisa:yes: , so if the weather stays nice we are at the foreshore, but if it is raining we do smartypantz!!

[Wondermum]

Just wondering if anyone knows if you're allowed to take your own food into Smartypantz?

[Gumby]

Yes wanting the details for smartypants incase we need to go there. I still dont know where I am going in regards to the train sheds but I will park along the foreshore near the big park and "hola" that I am lost and lonely :D. I am sure I wont miss it. I will call Zoe if I need a hand..

[Luisa]

I posted the dirrections to Smartypantz on one of ther previous pages :D

I dont know about taking your own food there but I cant see it being too much of a problem :S

Only big building type thing at the foreshore.
Rian, how many kiddies are you bringing... just a thought... Kylie how many does your car fit....:detective:

[Gumby]

I am bringing 2 kids and a sil. And home made pizzas :smiliedance:

[Gumby]

Oooo pizzas yummo :smiliedance:

Yep same one *sigh* Need some privacy...lol

[mummyof5]

[mummyof5]

OH no, that's a shame Hathor. I hope things get better for you soon.
Luisa, here's hoping your little boy is well enough to come tomorrow.

Rian, why don't they have school 6 days a week, but adults only have to work 5?? Then we could have a kid free day with our partners!!;)

ETA: I actually know Hathor from another site I used to post on alot before I found my beloved Bubhub :laughing
I have met up with her too many times to count now and she is the greatest gal ever and her little boy is just beautiful :angel:
I will make sure she comes to the next meet!

[Wondermum]

:wave: by the sounds of it we're going to have a feast lol!

I'm bringing some pinwheels.

Sorry to hear some of you can't make it tomorrow.

eek eek eek :smiliedance: see you all tomorrow!.... EEK

[Hathor]

Phineas, do you plan to drag me? :p

I was looking forward to joining/meeting you all.

Just a little tired and stretched between toddler tantrums and having so much to do and so little time to do it all! I will definately try a little harder to make it next time

You will have to have some bickies and pinwheels for me, though maybe not together..

[Wondermum]

Just a little tired

ugh I know the feeling... I've running on very little sleep lately. I miss my full nights sleep!

Sounds like a few of you have already met through another forum before?.... I've only ever been a member of one forum 'bubhub' and haven't met anyone on the net before.

[Hathor]

Phineas and I have met a few times, the poor girl probably feels a little stalked by me :)

I frequent a different forum a bit more often, this one is rather big and a little less familiar iykwim?

Some of the girls I've met off the forums have been absolutely wonderful :) Phineas included ;)

[Wondermum]

cool.... I guess I better go get some beauty sleep now so I can meet these lovely ladies and their gorgeous children tomorrow :)

[Luisa]

Weather in the city at 7.36am.....

A wonderful breeze, but little overcast ... ie: No Sun!.... It doesnt look like it is raining but it does have the potential to....

The next update will be at 8.30am!

[mum2mady]

Awesome luisa keeping us updated at maryland its abit the same but i think we should be fine i reckon i am so looking forward to meeting everyone.

I am abit tired i need to go to bed earlier and stop reading i never hardly read but lately i have been.

from Tracey

[Luisa]

[Luisa]

Oh and those homemade pizzas were delish... whoever made them must really give me the recipie :D

[Areca]

Sorry I just couldn't make it today. DD was exhausted and fell asleep on the way home from swimming. She's only just getting lunch now she slept so long.
Hopefully next time cause I really wanted to go

[Wondermum]

I can now put names to faces :smiliedance:

Mel
Karrie
Zoe
Kylie
Rian
Tracy - were you the pregnant one?
Luisa - did you have an accent?

I'm really bad with remembering names :o

Had a good day out anyway!

[Luisa]

I do have an accent... Its a English one with and ozzie twang every now and then...

Trudie was the pregnant one :D

[Wondermum]

LOL thanks for the clarification Luisa :D

I didn't know who belonged in our group at first I ended up asking who some stranger was that was hanging around the table....'so who would you be?' and she said 'Oh I'm no body' :o

[mum2mady]

I wish i was the pregnant one lol.


I was in the white shirt with trudie the pregnant one with my child running around aka pink stroller person.

I didnt even realise that was you HI :wave: I made the pizzas :D they were yummy wernt they..lol

I had a great day too. I am sooooooooooooo sunburnt :shame: I should know better..

[benji's_mum]

I'm sorry that I didn't get to have a chat to you all. I took my girlfriend along cause I'm a big fraidy cat and spent the whole time catching up with her as we hardly ever get to see one-another these days. It was nice to be around a bunch of ladies that are really into their kids.
Next time around I promise to circulate more.

[Shanaynay]

:laughing:

So great to meet those I hadn't met before! But I wish we had name tags - it took me a while to work out who some people were, I wasn't really sure :o
Next time we will all know who we all are!

Benji's mum - I actually couldn't work out if you and your friend were Bubhubbers or just people that were at the park! We will have to have a another meet up and chat a bit more!


We will have to have another meet up somewhere up Maitland way since there are so many of us up from that direction!

Thanks for the great day ladies :D


ETA: Mum2mady - sorry Zara kept running off with your stroller!!! :o

[MrsTwith3]

[mummyof5]

Thankyou for that scrumptious choc brthday cake too, Mel!! It was beautiful...youare a great :chef: .

So, Rian, since you do the poll thing so well, when are you starting one to organise an AO meet???:laughing:

[Shanaynay]

AO meet sounds fantastic :D

[littlegreenfrog]

hello peoples!!


-Thanks for the meet, sorry I didn't talk to you all, it was a great turn out.

Oh the Caramel Slice was soooooooooo yumy...
I'm looking forward for the next meet.
What are the best days for everyone?

-Anne Welcome nice to see you here.

- I have not long got home from work after a really long day and having my head in the loo a few times, I'm sick of the morning sickness.

I'm just feeding the the little one, and then bath all the kids and go to my friends engagment party.
I'm sooo tired I wont be staying long as I need to start work at 6AM. not looking forward to it. but I'll have a few days off. Yah!


Well I better go, have fun peoples

-Trudie

[Gumby]

Mmm Ao Hey? Ok Well Throw Some Suggestions At Me For When And Where And Then We Will Start Another Poll :d

[mummyof5]

Well, it IS the HUnter valley round here...maybe we could meet in the middle at one of the great pubs, since most have yummo food and there are plenty to choose from...

Otherwise it's ditto for the wineries...

I don't know anywhere closer to Newcastle to go out, but I'm sure the lovely locals can suggest somewhere?!

Whatcha think???

[Gumby]

Winery tour would be good. My only prob with an AO date is how will we get our drunk arses home...lol

[mummyof5]

Yeah, we might have to harass someone into being designated driver :eek: .
Either that or we do the day tour thingie, as it is usually cheaper in groups...maybe we could then have the options wether we wanted to bring partners, or leave them at home to look after kiddies:D , corse, if they come, they have to drive us home from said tour vehicle, it's their payment for being invited in the first place:laughing: .

[Shanaynay]

I could drive - I'm breastfeeding so can't have much anyway :idea:

[Luisa]

I dont drink :) if that helps
