Public transport isn't the best here. All we have is the bus system, and you will discover that there isn't very good coverage to areas like MacGregor. I relied on the bus system for 4yrs, I only got my liscence in Feb of this year.
I think there are about 5 or so of us BB girls living in the new part of Macgregor now. I am not sure if they have buses running through the new area yet, you may need to walk into the old area or closer down to Kippax. First Time Mumma would know.

Hey Joanne i know the buses like the back of my hand (while they are SO unreliable and the bus drives are horrible) i'll hopefully be coming to this meet up i can catch the bus with you. Will you be bringing a pram or so you have a sling for DS?

Sadly I wont be able to make it as I work on Tuesdays. I am one of the mums in the new macgregor area. We should organise a meet in one of the parks there one day.

Yes that sounds good. Theres a park just up on Bryan Hudson and im off that streeteven though my bubba is far from being to play catching up for a chat is always good.

Just thought I would let you all know I am going to be hosting a tupperware party on a sunday in November (either 14th or 28th) everyone is welcome - great chance to meet up and gossip, I don't expect anyone to buy anything you can just come and have a cuppa. Anyway, I will give out more details once I have it all booked in.

Joanne- the bus drivers dont really get crabby with prams i can help you get it on and off. My pram weighs 11kgs and has to be pulled apart (its a strider plus) and it is a royal PITA so i have my sling which i take K out in. And no the park is i guess half way up bryan hudson.
Mad4e- i had no idea you moved into macgregor!! and yes not far from me at all! im in herdson pl
Misty- Id love to come to your tupperware party. 14th is better for me

Hey KaileysMummy, that would be awesome i know you told me where to get the bus from & which 1 to get but i didnt write it down
i'll have the pram for DS and DD will walk (and hopefully not run off) i dont currently have a sling for DS. Are the bus drivers funny about having prams on the buses?.
A meet-up for the one's of us in Macgregor sounds like a great idea. KaileysMummy do you mean the fenced off grassed area at the front of the estate?.

My advice is if you can go without a pram on the bus, do so. Otherwise if you have a little umbrella stroller that is light and easy to carry on and off, use that. I don't think any of the disabled buses come up our way, so that means you will need to fold the pram up and carry it on yourself. The bus drivers aren't allowed to help, and some are downright rude and will drive off before you are even seated. Biggest tip - hand the baby to the driver while you load the pram (don't ask, just hand the baby over): then he cann't drive off until you are ready and you have someone to hold bubs while you are doing everything.

Can definitely meet up at one of the new parks - either the one up from KaileysMummy (which sounds like the most central one) or the other one. I'm up for that anytime, just send me a message on here or a pm or fb me

Oh and if anyone needs a lift I have room for 2 baby seats in my car
