Default Fancy a good old greet?

Then get yourself to the cinema and watch Greyfriars Bobby. Being an Edinburgh gal, that story always gets me, but we took the girls to see it today and I was welling up every 5 minutes

Chicken Little next week - God I need to get a babysitter or I'm doomed to onlyever watch cert U films for the rest of my life

Couldn't watch Greyfriars Bobby at the minute, I'm greetin' every 5 minutes as it is . I also can't watch King Kong (hate sad endings). Took the girls to see Chicken Little last week, they loved it (I fell asleep )

Chicken little didn't do for us I'm afraid. One child (3) was sleeping and Matthew (5) was afraid of the aliens!!! Next time I might lock them under the stairs and watch a grown up film. :scared:

I'm worried now! My eldest (4 this month) is a real wuss (spelling?). We're going to see Chicken Little next week as party of a birthday party. I can just see me sitting with 2 small children on my knee for the whole film :scared:

Auzziebound, I see you're in Dundee, are you coming to our Day Out?

Hi Jane,

I'm also in Dundee! We will need to think of a place to go. We had a few drinks and got some lunch last time and then had a few more drinks......

I think you can reserve some seats in Braes at the bottom which might be quite good. If you can think of other places please let us know.

Cheers

Ginny

Hi Ginny,

Braes would be good as there is plenty of room so we would all be sitting in the one area. Yes you can book it........... a girl from work did that for her leaving night.

Bar Rio is also good for a bit to eat but depending on the numbers, it may be difficult to get a seat after the meal! I'll have a think.
