[Sybafairy]

I am now definetly coming.. boyfriend is working away that weekend

[Miss Cydonia]

nearly a week to go and the weather aint looking great. Whats the backup plan regarding food if it rains? (ie do we still bring picnic-foods)??

EDIT-just read back and we decided probs go to the tea room place. I guess that answers that.
and PLEASE!!!!-can we go to Scruffy Murphy's????? please please please ? lol

[iamtheparty]

Haha Scruffy's could be fun I'm really looking forward to this guys!

[Sybafairy]

Hi ladies

I wont be able to make it now.. had a £180 vet bill yesterday and the cat now needs £500 of surgery, so anything non essential is cancelled.. pretty much so is food for the month, so sadly wont be able to attend!

have fun all!

[Miss Cydonia]

thats a shame. A few people are dropping out but theres not much news for us still going. Been quite quiet this thread considering its this weekend lol

[<<Miss_Sami>>]

Yar it is a bit quiet!
Anyone know what the crack is about the picnic? Should I bring picnic-y foods with me? Or buy them down there? Or are we not having one? Questions, questions, questions...

[Haylum]

I think we're going to have a picnic regardless of what the weather's like. We'll just find somewhere to have it indoors if necessary. I'm going out to buy some yummies on Thursday

[Miss Cydonia]

Im also buying picnic stuffs (including wine ) on thursday. Got my dreads from Angelaar yesterday so Im doing a self install on friday night. I warn you now-i cant install neatly whatsoever and 'cos Im only wearing them for 1 day you will have to excuse the mess lol.
Im really excited-want to take loads of photos

[<<Miss_Sami>>]

Fair doose - thank you for your replies ladies

[iamtheparty]

I'm going to bake some cupcakes I think

[~*Zombie Candycane~*]

Just like to mention im bringing x2 if possible. Firstly i want to show off my handy work (as ive recently dyed his hair bright red) and second *whispers* because if my car breaks down he knows how to fix it without calling the insurance >_< lol. my OH god bless him knows NOTHING about cars so i need a backup lol.

Looking forward too it and will be bringing veggy picker nicker foods me thinks!

Thanks

[Sybafairy]

Bollox to it.. it is only £9 return on the train.. i might be poor but not that poor.

Signing myself off work for a week aswell because i work with crazies who havent given me more than 2 consecqutive days off in a year!

So count me back in

[<<Miss_Sami>>]

Yey!
I am beyond poor after having to fork out for 4 new tyres, not earning any money until the end of Sept, and my MOT being next month. Add into this my and my OHs anniversary, a festival and 2 mates birthdays this month it does not make for a rich Sami!
I can't remember the last time I had so little money!

Likewise.. it is a complete sh*tter at the moment.. but all work and no play makes Nicky a really dull girl..

Wont be able to afford picnic stuff, but i am so anal about food anyway i am sure no one would eat anything i brought

I wont have a mobile either as it got lost at the o2 so can give someone the time of my train arrival from Leicester and a meeting point?

No me neither (about the picnic stuff) and I feel rather bad about it
Do you want to give some the time of your train, I believe there is a key word missing from your sentence
I think Madii has put the specific meeting place in the first post? Outside Millie's cookies

[Sybafairy]

Ok just saw that and haha yes i did.. silly me

will be on the 8.49am from leicester anyway so will be there for Millies Cookies

If you have sugar, butter and flour in the house you can make shortbread But don't fret about it, I'm sure no-one will mind.

[~*Zombie Candycane~*]

I wouldnt worry about it i am also a little picky/weird about food so ill be bringing a fair bit of veggy food and just eatting that proberly. My boyfriend also loves veggy food and my other friend does too so we will proberly provide for ourselves. ^_^

As much as i love cooking im not very good at it lol. So i dont know if ill manage to get anything baked before the meet ill have a try anyways.

Same here lol. I wouldnt eat anyone elses if i didnt bring anything for anyone else.

[Miss Cydonia]

oh my god Im so excited now-so glad more ppl are coming than I realised. Im willing to share my foods with anyone who wants to risk my homemade pitta-pizzas (they will break your teeth though-im no masterchef!!) My train is costing me £30 , cant really be affording to do this either but it's so out of character for me to get out and do stuff like this so Im going for it lol

[iamtheparty]

Is anyone else a tiny bit anxious about meeting lots of new people at once?

[~*Zombie Candycane~*]

Is anyone else a tiny bit anxious about meeting lots of new people at once?

ME!! LOL

[Miss Cydonia]

Is anyone else a tiny bit anxious about meeting lots of new people at once?

ME!! LOL

[Haylum]

I'm going to bake some cupcakes I think

Me too.

BEST CUPCAKE COMPETITION!
