Here it is guys!!
The next meet up for a fun afternoon in the pub, no doubt with no sign of the kids again if yesterday was anything to go by!!
Would be great to see even more faces there at the next one   Grin

Same place as always The Old Brickworks, Drighlington, Near Leeds

Address is Wakefield Road, BD11 1DH.........or Junction 27 off the M62, take the A650 towards Bradford and look for the chimney!!

yay!!

Thanks for this Debi, I will finally have the boys that weekend! Hope they are as happy to go off and play like the others are so I can continue to get to know/chat to some more people, obviously as well as the ones I already chat too!

Speak soon!

Deb, you may have to change this as it clashes with Sharon's Bredbury Hall night out.

Michelle, the pub meet is lunchtime so doesn't clash and not everyone will be able to do a night out if they have the kids that weekend anyway

Oldhogs, if you're not doing anything else, please still come to the pub, others come without kids.

Me and E will be arriving about 1.30pm!

Oh I may brave this one, Sue informs me that you are all a lovely bunch of people!
Has anyone ever tried to organise a Leeds city centre meet?? I just wonder if it might be easier re public transport (selfish because I don't drive)

OH not really thought that hard about it, I did just wonder if it had ever been done as I know that personally I put off going places if it's a bit tricky to get there on buses etc! So wondered if it had been done before and if it was popular with it being a very central location. As for kids there is the museum but not ideal for keeping them entertained for a long time suppose Leeds centre more adult based??!!

We did a meet with kids to Leeds museum not long ago. (you just beat me to that one Rach!!)

The main reason we do the pub meet is for the kids to play and get to know each other while we have a bit of adult company so would be difficult to do a city centre meet. Not many places in the centre would be happy for us to hang around all afternoon either.

Where in Leeds are you njw? Maybe one of us could pick you up or meet you somewhere
