okay - reports please...and pics!
i know i popped in briefly before picking up the boys - adult coffee before the chaos of the boys paying me back for leaving them overnight. The boys liked their gifts and had to take them out of the bag immed despite me saying they were for the tree...so thanks bombshell for the pressies. ------------- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker">

Debs there are no piccies....we decided there werent enough of us to even bring out the camera...very dissapointed in the turn out from here....
glad those that came did tho....was great to catch up again having said that i am not going to be organising any more botany meetups due to the lack of people turning up these last two times.... guess more people want mid week ones...so those of us who work will sort out something else i guess! |

I showed up a bit late. Admittedly we weren't dressed festively and I didn't recognise anyone (then I've only met a few!) so maybe you were all gone by that time...
Sorry that all your hard work organising everything didn't work out as expected Bombshell ------------- http://lilypie.com">

i dont know bombshell if midweek is what everyone wants... but i do know from my perspective that it is harder when the area is so open and the boys dont have much to entertain them... its definitely a lot easier when they dont want to run everywhere or have to be doing something...oh for the days of little bubbas!!! 
i also find whitcoulls a bit expensive and lacking in nice cakes etc...  ------------- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker">

no there has been talk before about sylvia park etc...so someone might like to organise those perhaps and then see....
i think there are a lot more meet ups centrally and out west during the week days so if those are to continue perhaps we leave weekends alone |

We will have to have little exclusive meet ups then BS There is a bubba swing down the road with Ella's name on it!!!
I wish there were more meet ups during the week but everyone seems to have gone back to work these days ------------- http://lilypie.com">

oh, i wasnt counting those as oh baby meet ups!!!
i still think the occasional meet up on the wekends is good and trying the coloumbus at sylvia park might be a goer..it is right next to the fenced kids playground and across from baby factory... ------------- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker">

That sounds so much better than the food hall where we met up last time. Most of the cafes at Sylvia Park are fairly small for loads of prams. ------------- http://lilypie.com">
