Dek.
You're right. When we had the shippers out to quote, they said they'd had massive numbers of poeple moving from the Falkirk/Stirling area this year!!! And that was before they decided to contaminate our water!!

Do your kids go to Wallacestone or St Margaret's? There's a couple of twin girls at Wallacestone but I think they're p1 so prob not yours.

BTW, there's a fair few family friendly places to meet near us. ACHB2 and I met there at Bewsters a few weeks ago, there's also Beancross Farm and for a smaller meet, Ceramic Experience or the Leisure Centre (has a soft play in it).

Last summer we all had a meet at a pub near M & D's. We all sat in the beer garden and the kids just played around us - worked well as it was a hot day.

Hey all,

Just thought I'd post my daughters thoughts she's 4!

I have set Ethan up (10 yr old) on msn talking to another boy his age who is also goin to Oz which has been gr8! he now smiles at the mention of Oz (and quadbikes lol).

Azaria today looked unhappy and said "mum you haven't got me any friends who are going to Oz" I said yes I did we went for lunch with them last week. She said "well there not going to the same place" and got upset

Still love you and the Girls Gill but looks like she would like a posse of friends not a couple lol

So whilst we are happy to meet anyone going anywhere a wee request from Azaria

" Anyone going to the Goldcoast for me to play with"

Looking forward to it!

Ok yes lets make a decision and say that we'll meet up on Sunday the 20th May.
Between 11am and Midday in Craigtoun Country Park,St Andrews.Can you suggest an area to meet up at there as we haven't been there before?We will bring our cuddly friends kangaroo and koala,so we can be recognised.

The Kids Adventure Playground is a good place to meet. Once you go through the main gate, cross over the bridge onto the grass and walk to the left up to the adventure play park.

Or anywhere else.

We'll do our best to get there. We've got a wedding the night before though so might be a little late.

.....and we won't be talking to anyone going to the Gold Coast

Hopefully meeting some other kids will boost him up a bit.

Cheers
