Making new friends

I feel quite invigorated! After organising a group of mummy bloggers to get together for a coffee, who knew making a bunch of new friends could be so exciting. And all through the world wide web.
We chatted about how the web has changed the way we do life. Want to know if dogs have tonsils...google it. Want to see and have a conversation with someone on the other side of the world...skype them. Its possible to meet and fall in love with someone...all through the web! And its possible to make new friends through blogging. Its like having aan old fashioned pen-pal, except that you have many pen-pals at the same time.


You know a little about each other...and then meet up and fill in a lot of the gaps.
The conversation wasn't awkward. It flowed...crafts, cakes, family,life and of course being a mummy... with shrieks of laughter in between.
All in all we all had a great time....and we should totally do it again sometime!
