Would you like to organise a regular-ish meet-up in your Local area?
It doesn't have to involve coffee and toddlers. It could be an evening in a gin palace, a frenzy of biscuit-making at a cookery school or a trip to the nearest canoeing centre. We won't judge.
You get to be called Local Ambassador (with a special calling card, no less) and there are some shiny Meet-ups pages in Local which will make get-togethers easier to organise. Here are a few examples of Meet-ups that are already active:
local.mumsnet.com/islington/group-meet-ups/islington
local.mumsnet.com/oxford/group-meet-ups/headington
local.mumsnet.com/exeter/group-meet-ups/exeter-centre
local.mumsnet.com/norwich/group-meet-ups/norwich-centre
local.mumsnet.com/bolton-bury/group-meet-ups/bolton
local.mumsnet.com/bath/group-meet-ups/bath
Of course, you can just join an existing group (look on local.mumsnet.com to find your nearest site), but anyone who signs up before midnight on Monday Feb 4 to be a Local Ambassador will receive a Dodo Book For Cooks to archive their favourite recipes and a Dodo Household Stuff Book to keep their paperwork in order.
Please email local@mumsnet.com putting 'Dodo Ambassador' in the subject field and stating in the email your local area/town.

Oops maybe I did use the wrong email, tried again and sent
Can look into it for Sheffield still, along with Katz.
Do I need to email to confirm for Sheffield or am I still down?
So there are labels for my town, but when I go to join it says this feature is coming soon?
I geddit, it's because there isn't an ambassador! I'm quick me!

I have emailed regarding the Isle of Wight - I presume we can have our own local instead of jumping in with Southampton or Portsmouth?
clearly nothing happening in my neck of the woods as none of my messages appear to have been seen 
Hello, I e-mailed about Sheffield too earlier, how many do you need?

Please tell me mine finally worked?
Emma - did you get my email????
How do we know if you have got our emails?
Do you email back? (In which case you haven't got it as I've not received one) or are you waiting until there is actually a group to arrange meets for (as said below, very, very quiet in my 'local')
Emma I did email, did you not get it?
