All sounds great ? we'd definitely use it and appreciate it.

Millie, I agree with all your comments and ideas about how to organise meeting up and getting to know each other. Big meet-ups indoors just aren't practical for those with energetic disobedient toddlers like mine. Afternoons out at the park/playground/1 o'clock club with one or two other mums would be ideal for me and my 18 month boy. Fuschia, I haven't been in the habit of using facebook for a while now, but I like your idea of starting a group. Could work.... for a start it would be a good place to swap mobile numbers, if we make sure settings are secure. Anyone?

Hello Jills, have PM'd you

Hi Jills (and everyone else), welcome to East Dulwich! I'm a mainly SAHM (recently started working Mons & Tues) with a 16 month old boy, and I'd love to meet some more mums in the area for regular get-togethers. We don't have any regular classes from Wednesday pm onwards, so morning or afternoon playdates would be great. I confess I've been following a few of these types of threads on the forum for a while, but hadn't got round to joining in till now. I find playgroups etc are good, but we seem have our best times in the comfort of people's houses, where the kids can be easily entertained and watched while a few of us mums chat and get to know each other. I moved to the area while I was pregnant, and am still gradually getting a network together... it's happening VERY slowly, I have to say, mainly due to laziness on my part! But little Max is very sociable, so I think I need to get out there a bit more :) I guess I should read back through this post to see if there are any meet-ups planned in the near future... if so, would you mind if I came along??
