I only found this website a couple of weeks ago, but since then I am shocked at the amount of hours I have wasted spent on here, fascinated by other people's lives. From staring with open-mouthed awe at the education section (as a teacher in a deprived area, I have NEVER met mums like you: 'How do I get my 11 year old child into Cambridge?'), to giggling at smut (licking out. Pah ha ha ha!) and general nosiness, I have easily spent the equivalent of a day here.
Yesterday, my MIL came over to babysit and give me time to study, but I bunked off and went to costa so I could read some more threads, furtively, like an addict.
Through my general reading, I've noticed that the same names post throughout the day and night, thus suggesting that they are on here permanantly. If I'm going to get anything done in my life, I'm clearly going to have to give up mumsnet again. How long do other people think they spend on here? What sections of your life have you given up?
AIBU?
to think I need a sabbatical from Mumsnet?
