Adelaide Meet Up
Ok girls, much has been said lately about us sad souls getting together and having a good old moan together!
Right I know Ozzieclare2be really needs to come - you're in Seaford, right Clare?
Merseygirl - Flagstaff Hill
I'm in Wynn Vale - god, we couldn't be further apart, could we really?
Looks like its gonna have to be around the City. When do you want to do this, any ideas where, time, etc. For those that may have little ones, do you want to meet in the hols with the kids? (or not!). Now I personally don't drive so will be doing the public transport thing, which is ok, but if we are meeting whilst the kids are at school, I will be a little constrained by time.
Anybody else in the 'not loving it' brigade from Adelaide that wants to meet up?

Re: Adelaide Meet Up
OK then, need a general concensous (sp?) on which day is best for everyone. My best day would probably be a Tuesday. I take it, we're looking at about midday for lunch/coffee in the City? If so, doesn't really want to be school hols either, does it?!?!

Re: Adelaide Meet Up
Yes, I can make a Tuesday lunch time as I already work in the city, and yes I agree, school holidays is probably not the best time....

Re: Adelaide Meet Up
More or less any day for me, but not at lunchtime and preferably not in the city. I couldn't get there as I don't work in the city and I hate going there full stop!
I would go if it was on an evening any time from 7pm onwards, in a fairly central suburban location.

Re: Adelaide Meet Up
Ok, what do people want to do? Post your ideas please, then we can go with the general consensus. I'm easy (not literally
) Can do lunch in the City Mon or Tues in school time, anytime over the weekend or any night. I'm in the North and don't drive so please not a night out down south, 'cos I'd never get home!

Re: Adelaide Meet Up
Just a nice quiet drink in a nice quiet pub is my style, or even just coffee. Somewhere you can have a good whinge and be heard!
