 Topic: CHCH Mums only evening?
Posted: 28 January 2009 at 1:07pm |
Hi lovely Christchurch ladies!
Just curious to see if any of you guys would be keen to leave your kids with Dad/Grandparent/babysitter for an evening and come have a Mummies only meet up at the Dux or something to that effect? Was thinking it would be nice to get away from the chaos, have a drink (or 10) and sit around venting about the men and children in our lives 
I try to catch up with my girlfriends once every 2 weeks and do this but alot of them are overseas at the mo and to be honest the only thing I ever have to talk about is babies which bores the heck out of them! So I thought it might be nice to get together with some women that would like a break and don't mind talking and hearing about babies.
Anyhoo just thought I'd see if anyone would be keen so if we get a few interested we can organise something.

ooo yes I'd so be keen for that, we used to have a 'craft' night (and by craft I mean sit around eating choc and drinking wine) and we had quite a few mummies come along.

Booboo - Absolutly you and E are welcome! The more the merrier
Woohoo great response already! Well how about next week I was thinking either Wed or Thurs around 5 or 6pm?
I'm in Brisbane from Fri till Mon so can't do the weekend. But if majority prefer a weekend we could do it the weekend after next?
Also was thinking the Dux de Lux as its nice and central and if the weather is hot like it has been its a great place to sit outside with beer or wine in hand  Any other suggestions are welcome.
Edited to add possible time

Maybe later than 6pm if it's a weekend... otherwise I think that I will be too pissed to drive home!! Or earlier? after lunch?!!
How about lunch then some wines? or would that roll on and on! Might have to get DH to drop me off and then pick me up!
Usually I am gone these days on 1/2 a glass! 
Ooohhh Brisbane sounds devine, have a blast.

I like the way you think Lisha O.K. so how about a lunch session? I think that sounds like a great idea! A few wines, some nibbles, baby talk, Sunshine
Well like I said next weekend I'm missing in action so is this Sat or Sun too short notice for everyone? If so the weekend after next?
I agree I might have to get Jess to drop me off and pick me up either way I'm such a light weight these days!

O.K. so if we rule out this weekend and next. The weekend after that is Valentines day on the Sat. So is that kool with everyone or would they prefer Sun and have valentines day with the men in their life? I personally don't do Valentines so would be fine with either the Sat or the Sun.

Thanks for letting us TTC people join in. I'm terrible for times (Dal (BooBoo) will confirm!).
I can do week nights, except the first two Wednesdays in a month (Book Club nights) and then I travel a lot for work, so I'm away between the 16th of Feb until the 13th March - BUT, I am back every weekend in between, expect the one that goes over the end of Feb beginning or March).
We don't do V. Day either so that might work.
Now I don't know if i want the BFP I'm trying for, as if I get it....I can't drink. Oh, well, you'll all be able to tell me how it's worth it! LOL.
E xx
ETA - I'm the 'E' person refered to by Dal...

Cool so valentines day could be the go :) Is everyone O.K. with Sat 14/2 around say 12.30
Is everyone cool with the Dux or do we have other suggestions? I thought Sol square is another good option? Thats probably a better spot for food.
E - I just checked out you real name I was going to call my daughter Esme that! I love Esther but DH's sister is called Esther so I felt weird calling my daughter that lol.
Will be cool to see you guys there

Yah E - ps man your busy!
I cant do 14th Feb - not because its valentines day but because were away that weekend, but thats all good I can join in on another one or one during the week.
Its so hard to find a day that suits everyone and since Im childless at the moment dont change it for me!
Dux is a great idea though - especially in the nice hot days we WERE having!
