    A member pointed out to me that we haven't had a meet up in a while... I can finally ship my three kids in the same car together, so how about one!?

    Was thinking the of a weekend in April, at Dublin Zoo?

    Please pick which date(s) are best for you, I've left out Easter Sunday for obvious reasons. The most popular date wins!

    Mammies, daddies and parents to be welcome!

    Most dates suits me. I also have a zoo card that will get in 3 other adults :)

    I just need to confirm scout activities before voting. Have a camp on 14/15 so that's out.

    Zoo card has expired so I'll be hoping to bum 2 adult and 2 child freebies in :)

    Can't wait to bring the little man to the zoo, see what he makes of it! :D

    Yes. ;P
    You and the girls can come in on my card.

    :)

    Cool. 'er indoors will probably come as well. We'll sneak her in on someone's card. What about Mr. Moonbeam? He has to be there to talk music with Mrs. Orion.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,865 ✭✭✭✭January

    Ye can of course :) So I have room for another adult on mine then, Mr. Wolfpaw will either be studying or catching up on sleep :)

    We've got confirmations and birthdays in April so I'll just wait and see what date is picked and if we're free we'll go along.

    I was including Mrs Orion in you and the girls;)
    If he is not working he might make an appearance.

    Would love to go but will have to see when baby no. 2 arrives. I think my little miss is just the right age now to really enjoy the zoo this time.
    She slept the whole time on the last meet there I attended :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 126 ✭✭rosknight


    Does anyone know of any Zoo admission deals at the moment?


  • Posts: 50,630 ✭✭✭✭ Coraline Tender Transition


    Oh I'll come along to this as long as my daughter doesn't have a football match or at least has an early one :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 812 ✭✭✭hacked


    We're in! Wolfpawnat could we sneak in with you also?

    No bother, my card is full now


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,169 ✭✭✭Grawns


    Bridge and I will be delighted to attend! All dates in April good do far.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,214 ✭✭✭cbyrd


    Would love to go... weekend of the 21st doesn't suit cos i've my brothers wedding.. would be lovely to see everyone again..;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 812 ✭✭✭hacked


    Might I suggest that if its a tie between a saturday and a sunday saturday might work best for some? I know there are a few of us on here travelling on public transport, and on a sunday that would be a NIGHTMARE...would definitely affect whether i decide to go or not anyway


  • Registered Users Posts: 227 ✭✭chirogirl


    Either of the last 2 weekends of April suit me.

    I voted for the 28th but realised I'm away that weekend. Could a mod remove my vote so as not to mess up the pole?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,807 ✭✭✭✭Orion


    edited poll to remove vote


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,865 ✭✭✭✭January


    So it's a toss up between the 28th and 29th, would the 28th be ok? For reasons hacked suggested, it would be easier for the parents who are taking public transport.


  • Posts: 50,630 ✭✭✭✭ Coraline Tender Transition


    Oh god, I'm a disaster!
    It's actually the last weekend of MARCH I'm away, not April! So I can totally make that weekend and yes the Saturday would suit me better as football won't be an issue.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,807 ✭✭✭✭Orion


    28th it is so. Two meetups that day now - this one and tGC beers that night. I love it when a plan comes together :D


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 18,952 Mod ✭✭✭✭Moonbeam


    Sat 28th of April it is so.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,124 ✭✭✭wolfpawnat


    I'm in :) See ye there!


  • Posts: 50,630 ✭✭✭✭ Coraline Tender Transition


    It's a date!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,242 ✭✭✭liliq


    Can't remember if Saturday was one of the days I voted for, but if it was I didn't think it through! :rolleyes: Back to work/ college from next week on Thursdays and Saturdays... only for 6 months though so hopefully next time!

    I'll have to bow out folks. All of the dates are too close to my due date for such a long drive.
    I'm struggling with the half hour drive to work in the morning so definitely wouldn't manage the 2 hour drive up.
    Pity as I would have loved to catch up with everyone again, hopefully later in the year though myself, the little lady & our new addition will be able to join you all.

    Have fun :)
