Hi ladies....

May be jumping the gun a little but I just had a fantastic idea....

Would you ladies be interested in having a morning tea meet on Thurs 24 May???? Say around 10/10.30am??? If enough people are interested then I will see about registering with The Biggest Morning Tea and getting donation info....

This would mean each of us would need to make a small donation which of course goes towards supporting the Cancer Council....

There is a wonderful park just near my house (Wallsend/Silver Ridge), which is nice and quiet but very well set out... has a fantastic kids play area and a very neat undercover seating/entertaining area.... am happy to PM details to everyone if enough are interested....

Ok ladies... I'm in the process of registering for the morning tea....

I was thinking we could work it like this.....

Everyone will need to bring a gold coin donation and a plate of food or drink.....

How does that sound???

I was thinking 10.30am.... in a certain park at Wallsend.... if you are interested please PM me for details.....

Hope you all can make it!!

Mrs J

Just wondering what sort of food is everyone taking ??? I want to do something different so we don't all end up bringing the same thing:rolleyes:

Veritas
11-05-2007, 20:19
I was gonna try and organise hot water etc, for tea and coffee (got my host pack today... :yes: ).... unless someone has a proper water carrier, cos I will just pinch a couple of mum's thermos'....

I'll prob be lazy and get some biccies unless I get the sudden urge to cook....

I just realised I'll be baby free that day (derrr) so if anyone needs to be picked up from anywhere just yell!!!

Veritas
11-05-2007, 20:20

I'm a 50/50 chance, depending on little madam's behaviour in the lead up:o . If she is too feral, i won't be able to miss EI to come there, but if she's ok, then I will.
Let you all know on Wedesday...

21-05-2007, 10:28
I was all ready to send a PM because DD and I would love to come, but remembered that she has an appointment at the JHH on Thursday.
I'd much rather go to a morning tea!

Areca
21-05-2007, 10:34
Looks like we'll be able to make it!

Is it ok if I bring pikelets? Just that way DD can actually eat something everyone else is (they are made to suit her allergies but I swear they taste like the real thing..I've made them for people before and they haven't known!)

If not, I'm happy to bring some drinks...just tell me what!

24-05-2007, 09:09
Hey Girls!

I hope you all have fun today! It turns out that the school ISN'T doing a morning tea now so I could have come to yours :banghead: but too late now. The girls are home as Liv's lost her voice (happens everytime she gets a cold or the flu) and we were just too disorganised to get Bailey there in time. Dayne's at preschool though so that's one less kid to worry about!

Anyway, hope you have a good time! See you at the next meetup!

x Kate

Thanks for a great day everyone! Sorry DD was so feral! I'm not sure if the terrible two's have hit early or if the molar's she's getting are upsetting her.
Anyway, hope to see you all again soon, providing we're still welcome :laughing:
