Boards parents and bumps meet!

hacked

Hey guys,

A few of us have been talking and are interested in meeting in the city centre for coffee sometime over the next couple of weeks.

Just wanted to make a thread to see who else in the Dublin(ish) area is interested and when would suit everyone.

January

I'm interested haha! Free anytime too.

caprilicious

I'd be up for it, I'm normally in Dublin every second weekend or so

I second that!

caprilicious, when is the next time you'll be in Dublin??

caprilicious

Well I don't work weekends so any weekend suits really. I normally go up every fortnight or so to see my folks

hacked

Well, you let us know what works best for you as you have to travel the most! I'm cool with any weekend really, my baby shower is on saturday the 30th, so that;s the only day I can't get out of.

Moonbeam

My baby girls birthday party is Sat 23rd so would be hard for me to make that day but any other weekend,mon or tues suits.

caprilicious

I'll be up in Dublin Feb 6th (Saturday) if that works for anyone?

hacked

suits me

January

Me too

Moonbeam

me three:)

CathyMoran

You should be able to add the 3 of us (bump, me and Shane), hope that you do not mind a daddy in training.

January

Daddys and Daddy's in Training are more than welcome

Soo happy you're coming Cathy was waiting to see you post! Can't wait to see your little bump!

CathyMoran

Thanks, the 3d scan made it a lot more real, will be boring you with his photo, his dad,grandparents and aunt are crazy about him. Cant wait to put a face to all the names.

January

Oh I can't wait to see that! Can you tell who he looks like??

CathyMoran

He has my eyes, nose and fingers but his dads mouth, chin and thumbs...so cute...

Moonbeam

Aww:)

Can't wait to see the photos:)
I will of course have Dearbhail with me so you can get some practice in;)

Have we decided on a venue?

hacked

No I don't think so.

What time suits everyone, and would we prefer to pick a particular venue or just meet in a central location and go from there?

January

I reckon meeting at a particular venue might be the best idea... anyone know the most child friendly cafe in the city centre???

Moonbeam

Somewhere suitable for babies and pregnant women!
So high chairs and no stairs to toilets!!
The only place I can think of off hand is the Debenhams cafe.

January

I really like the Debenhams cafe nice and spacious for the buggies too!

crazy cat lady

Me, Chet and Megan might come along!

Where is the Debenhams Cafe? Is there parking? We'd be coming up from Wicklow and we don't really know Dublin that well!

If we have a street name, SatNav will bring us

It's the Debenhams on Henry St/Ilac Centre. You can park in the Ilac Centre the entrance to the car park is on Parnell Street, Dublin 1.

Thanks

I'll keep an eye on this thread for definate dates/times!

hacked

im coming from wicklow too, but can get the DART. Connonly would be my best bet?

OK so we have feb. 6th, Debenhams cafe. What time suits? I think thats all thats left!

January

Tara St might be better for you hun... walk up the Quays and over O'Connell Bridge then onto O'Connell St. It's safer... Talbot Street is full of junkies...

Whatever time suits me, will only take me 20 minutes to get to Debenhams from my house so it's all good

Moonbeam

What time suits people?
About 13:30?

January

That sounds good to me Moonbeam!

Moonbeam

If people coming on trains and Darts would like to meet in the train station first let me know and this can be arranged:)

lolly22

I dont post as much as read on this forum but if im in Dublin on ths 6th ill head in with minilolly, would be nice to put face's to name's

Moonbeam

It would be lovely to meet both of you:)

lolly22

Thanks if we get there ill be the one going around asking everyone 'Are you from the internet?'

Moonbeam

haha:)
You wouldn't actually believe how many times I have had to do that over the years!!

lolly22

Lol since iv been going to board's beers so far I have gotten away with it, they are easy enough to spot :cool:

I dont think I have met anyone going to this, but hey ill spot the group with all the babies and kids,or ill get there first and put a sign on a table sayin 'im from the internet.....do not be afraid' everyone else will just walk away thinking im just some mad person with a child, cant be that hard :P

Moonbeam

Sure aren't all people with children mad?;)
We will come up with a way of recognising each other:)
Actually if anyone coming wants to pm me their email addresses we can organise it:)

CathyMoran

We will send you a pm...looking forward to it.
