**DIS Girly Weekend 2010** ~ IT'S OVER :(

[wilma-bride]

Hey ladies,
I don't think I'm gonna be able to make it

Even though the airfare wasn't too bad, all the wedding invites for the year have started rolling in, and what with presents to buy and hotel stays, I can't really afford another trip anywhere

The only way I can think around it is if I get a train to London Kings Cross, and then I could get a tube from there, if anyone is travelling from the central London area that I could hitch a lift to Southampton and back with?
Cheeky I know, but it's my last hope!

I really hope you can get something sorted Meryll.

I am still living in hope.

Corinna

I've got my fingers crossed for you Corinna

Unfortunately I will not be able to make it .... we are highly likely to be booking for a few days in Disneyland Paris in July which will limit my time off for the rest of the school holidays. Hopefully 2011

Sorry you won't be able to make it Sarah, maybe next year ?

It sounds perfect Claire

 

[irongirlof12]

sounds good Claire - I've gotta get a move on with the outfit thing- still hoping to lose some weight

 

[Claire L]

Just to confirm then the Saturday night is a 'dress up' night?

If so have the ideal dress that I bought last weekend for a friend's wedding in June

 

[darthtatty]

Just bumping this up as less than 3 months to go.

so is it an 80's style night out on Sat?
think everyone should post pics of possible outfits to give me some ideas.
Im going to need to go shopping as i cant remember the last time i went out.

Nothing's been set in stone, but it could be Flares (70's club) on the Friday night and then Reflex (80's club) on the Saturday night. I can't see me rushing out to wear flares or leg warmers, but I'm looking forward to wearing a couple of nice dresses that weekend

Nat & I were talking about the Girly Weekend the other day, and we're really looking forward to it

 

[darthtatty]

cool, i'll prob just find a nice dress

I cant wait either, got a busy summer.
shame no trip to Disney though..............

 

[natalielongstaff]

So, so, so, so sooo looking forward to the girly weekend !!!!

Hiya,
been a while since I checked in, got very excited when the countdown went to double digits ! I'm not sure I have any 70s/ 80s gear so may have to be my normal dresses lol.
I know this question may have an answer such as how long is a piece of string but how much should I be budgeting for the weekend? I can't imagine I'll be doing any shopping but trying to figure it out. What do you generally end up spending?
2 dinners, 2 club nights, drinks etc. I'm worried about money right now generally as you can tell.
Any guidance would be great xx

I can't recall what I spent but guess as there's so many of us we'll probably pre-book the restaurants and use their set menus so hopefully that'll keep the costs down..

So, on that note, when can we decide about where/what to eat etc..???

Flares one night and Reflex the other sounds like a good plan Mandy.

Oh I like most foods, but love Italian, Chinese or American

Just checked the trains, the weekend before ours is now available so next week everyone should be able to check train times & tickets prices.

Fab news!!! Can't wait...

Things might be starting to look up. Last week we were given the first draft of our new rosters. We just had 5 new team leaders confirmed and today they interviewed for two more. So our rosters are changing. We will only work 3 weekends in 9 now instead of 2 in 5. We do not know when the new roster starts, but I checked the three most likely starting dates and for two of them, I would have the weekend for the Girlie weekend off. I have just the dress (or should I say dresses to bring as well).

that sounds promising Corinna, fingers crossed you can make it after all
