Hellcat Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 We're in - date depending, of course. Love the idea of a pot luck picnic - they're really popular round here. We have a pot luck barbie every so often. Dragthree barbies out the front, everyone brings their own meat and another dish to share, and away you go!

Chicken on a mission Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Me, hubby and munchkin are in. Thanks for providing the venue Tamsin Any chance of everyone doing name badges with their avatar on it so I know who you all are! I'm terrible with names Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellcat Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Good idea on the badges! We should be able to do it, en masse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Lesley suggested that at Kew, and it was a real help. Buffy made one with pink feathers round it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamsin Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Hiya, I have consulted my social diary. Could you decide between you which of these two dates will be best, we have shows on other dates and the first date sugested clashes with my brothers engagement party here, ( dont suppose he will appreciate us 'Omlette Fans' having a cluck over his hog roast and bar b). The dates that I suggest are Sat 29 July or Sat 5th Aug Please e.mail me privately for directions. I am just 10 mins from M25, so hopefully fairly easy to get to.I will send directions nearer the time. I look forward to hearing from fellow Omletters, Oh yes the badges sound great, I often forget my name! te he Tamsin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 That is so kind of you Tamsin and Thorpe is really not very far from me. Unfortunately, I can't do August 5th and probably not July 29th either (plans not quite fixed yet). I am really really disappointed because I can't go to Burghley either and to come to you would be SO easy and convenient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 I could do the 29th of July, but not the 5th of August. Can't do the Saturday of August bank holiday weekend as I have something already booked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kazaddress Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 may I recomend Royal Holloway in Egham (junction 13 on the m25) www.rhul.ac.uk or we could all meet at virginia water parks. i normally have picnics at the lakes, and sit by the waterfalls and roman ruins. (there is also a large pub within walking distance) I will be there where ever it is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 What were you doing up so late (early) Kaz! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 It's a fabulous idea all having a get-together, and I'm definitely up for anything in the South East, and will always consider more distant venues if at all possible. But I'm not at all sure that I can make either of the dates suggested, since it's school summer hols and we've got a lot of friends/ family get-togethers as well as a holiday planned. When there's a final date I'll confirm, but I'm so upset that it really is looking unlikely now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel (& Paul) Posted April 30, 2006 Author Share Posted April 30, 2006 Its difficult isnt it Tamsin!! We cant do thd 29th July or 5th August - why dont we have two Southern get togethers - one at yours on a date you can do and another, further west perhaps for the bank holiday Sunday?
