Hi all
OK.Pennant Hills Park situation for tomorrows meet. PH Oval does not have bbq but lots of space/ shade.However,having lived here 9 months I finally visited the Lillian Fraser Garden,PH which also does not have bbq facilities but are rather enchanting with little lots of shady `hideaway` areas and certainly lots of spaces for the children to run around in.Its rather like a largish version of grannies garden not at all like the usual open spaces we meet at! We`d all have to bring our own food or nip down to the various take away shops at PH ,a short walk from gardens.
Hope this appeals.I do realise the reason PH was chosen was that I`ve so many extra chilodren tomorrow that I cannot drive anywhere so if you prefer to go elsewhere I will not be hurt, Well a bit possibly!
Otherwise shall we say 11am at Lillian Fraser Gardens,Pennant Hills
PM me for phone no/further directions.

We will pop by for an hour or so, providing that I can keep my children under control (as in the rules). Saying that, we'll probably cope for 5 minutes, but if we feel the need to move on I will have 2 or 3 car spaces if that helps with your extras Wilgar?

Thanks. Lets see what happens tomorrow.
Otherwise there is small park by the PH library (which has swings & loos/ food shops etc) and lots of space to put down blankets and sit in shade etc to gossip but its not our usual kind of venue if you know what I mean.

I'm a definite and I can take an extra two in the car if need be as well. Any park is good with me - will just be nice to get out of the house for a while.

So, are we going to start off at Lillian Fraser Garden? Sounds fabulous for Hide and Seek! Hope we don't loose any of the little cherubs!

Its a fab garden for hide & seek and I think it`ll be a fun & unique venue.Only problem being if there aren`t any loos we`ll have to nip upto garage(or perhaps litlle ones could `be discrete!) Yawn!I`m off to bed now so will next check this tomorrow right & early.

Yes planning on going, won't be able to go tomorrow now though.

Wilgar, I am right in thinking there will be no swings ect? Should I bring balls instead, or is this a not allowed?
Thanks..
