Hi all, thanks for signing up.
Jo Blackroot Bistro is just at the bottom right of Blackroot pool on google maps. You access it off Blackroot Entrance Blackroot Road rather than the main entrance.
I thought it would be better to keep away from the Main entrance. I'm sure the bistro won't mind us using their facilities as some of us will probably end up buying from there. If anyone has any other suggestions on where would be a better place please feel free to say.

Can we have trips around the park on your bike rob.

This is looking good, women out numbering the men.

Hi peppylapugh, thanks for signing up.

Although people are bringing children, people without children are welcome. and yes it is a singles event. I can't guarantee everyone who attends will be single as with any pof meet but the majority will be.

Meets work, you have a far better chance of finding someone to have a relationship with by attending a meet rather than just sitting at home on the pc.
You may meet them at the meet, you may get noticed on the feedback thread.

Well bubbles and a picnic sounds fab to me and for you guys coming along us women are ready to say hello....

As for moving to Sutton Coldfield its a lovely place and I know that whatever the weather we can find a retreat as there are several local pubs we could always escape to that welcome children....

This is my first picnic in the park & I know Joe has worked really hard to find a place to come up with so were just a group of friends meeting up to have a laugh and maybe a game of footie or cricket who knows..... frisbee fights etc

Were just one week away

Not long to go now and sign up has been good. You can still get your names down though. Everyone is welcome at the picnic, even teddy bears.

See you Sunday!
