Wow, this is really late notice, but can i join too? It's been ages since the first M and Ms meeting (the one and only one I was able to make!!!!) and it'd be nice to see new and old faces. I just read about your night now and think i can make it! Just checked with hubby and it's ok, I could make it for dinner.

Count me in if it's not too late :)

Hope all of you made it back home safe and sound last night!

Oh, the night out was just brilliant!! :star:

My first in seven months - relished every moment, every bite of dinner and of course most of all the great company ladies! Thanks M&Ms for organising this.

Since there are so many food lovers in the group, how about a night out once a month to check out Helsinki's culinary offerings? Anyone up for Thai next? Villa Thai is worth checking out and would have the space to accomodate our large group. (am feeling very bold and adventurous after the successful evening at the homefront!)

Thanks to all the daddies for babysitting last night. I'm actually so proud of the hubby who managed to hold the fort and successfully put baby to bed at his usual bedtime. (We had worked out some worst case scenarios and thankfully there was no need to resort to Action Plan Code Red) :P When I got in at 11pm, the little chappie was still sound asleep and a very eager husband was waiting to report his paternal achievements of the evening to me!

Let's do this again!

P.S. Everyone looked fantastic btw - no bits of potato mush clinging to hair and puke-stained free clothes... :D wow and even lipstick!

Hi and thanks for everyone from me too!

It was lovely to go out and have a proper dinner (although I was feeling still a bit panicky about when to go home but fortunately all had gone well here as well).

I am very keen on having a dinner evening once a month or something. Good idea Shazzer! I have heard that Helsinki really does have some good restaurants and as a foodlover - I would love to go and explore what there is to offer. The Thai sounds good and I would also like to try a Japanese cuisine here ...

Have a good weekend - looks like a sunny one!

Hi Everyone,

Thanks to M&Ms from my side too. It was fantastic night.

Marianne: Thank you very much for dropping me till my place. Actually, it was the first time that I went out alone at night. Really I was scared on the way to bus stop as it takes few minutes. So you came in the shape of GOD :D

It was a very good night. 3 of us went onto a bar and stayed for a while.

Didn't get much sleep last night as we were woken by the geek barking letters at us at 6.30am! Grrrrrrr.

Yes, we must make this more of a regular thing...it'll be good for us all!
