Grace - glad you had a good Christmas. I know what you mean about having some time to spend with
DH. I feel like this last week has been the first opportunity we've really had for some quiet time together, and also to do some thinking - which has been painful at times but feels like moving forward.
Jen - so glad you're up for coming out. I'm really looking forward to meeting you.
Lucy, Lou and everyone else over here, I hope you're having a good break and maybe managing to escape the baby business a bit, but hoping too that you'll still be around on Wednesday.
I've racked my brains for a big easy to find venue which won't have many people in where we'll be able to find each other easily .... and can't think of anywhere! So I'll suggest the Pitcher and Piano near Trafalgar Square/Charing Cross - according to my A to Z is on William IV St. If you're coming down from Leicester Square tube you turn left when you reach Trafalgar Square - St Martins Church is in front of you and there's a pub called the Chandos on the corner where you turn. Sorry, I'm rubbish at directions... but you're all intelligent women, you'll find it! Anyway, I will be somewhere upstairs (I'm hoping there'll be more space and fewer people up there) with a glass of wine (possibly red, possibly white, depending on mood!) from 6.30. I've got shoulder length blond hair, a bright red coat, erm... and no very obvious distinguishing features! Descriptions of you would be most welcome! I suggest we stay there til 8pm to see who turns up, and then go in search of food.
I'll post on the main board too - I'm really quite excited! Love
