Holy moly, I make the total raised £671.57!!!

Oh dear - in all of our frivolity on the Aitch thread, you have incorrectly said that I've won the name. I can't be Aitch - it would be funny for a while, but Aitch needs to be Aitch. I think you'll find that she bid a tenner, I raised her a fiver, and she then raised me a fiver, so in fact it is rightfully won by her for the sum of £20.

Can I pay the £20 anyway (my contribution to mfm so far is woefully short), but you still assign the name to Aitch?

I wondered why you had that, CSWS!

boco

you must remain boco

not wolfie

[stern]

Enid!

Mrs Pot, have you met Mrs Kettle?!

LOL, they did get out of hand - I blame Twiglett <points finger>

Enid i liked Wolfie because it reminded me of Citizen Smith and the Tooting Popular Front. I thought i could rise above small engine, but maybe not. I will remain a very useful engine and maybe be a hapless revolutionary on public holidays.

I've paid and I'm now working out how best to announce my transformation from the rather mumsy, Cod-despised 'Issymum' to the much cooler 'Issy'. A dramatic flounce perhaps followed by an equally dramatic return?

wolfie makes me think of the wolf from clever polly - in itself excellent but not...well..boco

god issy is so much better

its like you've had a makeover

How to Sound Good Shortened

ive paid for cc

Ooh, I've paid! I don't know whether I'll use my new identity though - I kinda like being me.

issy, you've been made over by Cod and Enid - the Trinny and Susannah of MN

<ponders which is the blowsy one and which looks like a horse>

It is better isn't it. I realise that this is super-pedantic and fussy of me but 'issy' doesn't feel quite right so I've asked if it can be 'Issy' instead.

I think a very simple and restrained announcement of my make-over is called for rather than a classic 'reveal' in front of a gaggle of friends gasping and weeping for the camera?

WHAT I OFFERED 10 QUID FOR WICKEDWATERWITCH1 _ I was going to sell it to www for 10 quid and thus give 20 to charity

WHAT FUN!!!!!!

look at me look at me!!!!

Quick peek from behind the changing room door in my new more sophisticated, shorter, sharper guise.

welcome!!

Ooh, look, no numbers

<strokes otter soothingly> Yes very nice dear.

<twirls> oooh, I like this

what a lovely name Crackwhore - you must be PROUD!!!!

Yes, I've NO idea why I bid for this!

<goes to change outfits again>

hi peeps

will pay next week when i have funds.

Ta x

look at me

i'm happy to pay for it, tech. will now go and see what else i was stung for... i have a Bad Feeling.

wascally!

okay, that is Weird. i know i bid (it was a joke, but i bid) for some other revolting name as i remember doing it.
will have a look later and tell you what it was if you need me to. as i recall i owed you about £25 all in, including Aitch. so why don't we just come to an arrangement and i'll pay you £25 for Aitch, as i haven't contributed much elsewhere to MFM?

Erm MNHQ! I paid for my nae, but when I tried to change to it, it said the name was already in use! What do I do now?

Thanks Tech - I'm so impatient!

don't worry, i was only after the other one as a joke, i didn't really want it. it was something absolutely nauseating as i recall. just givvus Aitch, that's the important thing. or i'll have to kill CSWS. (sorry csws, but that's the way it is.)

Hello, I really wanted jas even though it wasn't on the list (can't find any uses of it though) but it says I won jazz. Can it be changed at all?
Pretty please?

great, will sort that out later. thanks for that, tech and olivia.

ok, thanks anyway

Is that a vague definition of 'a couple of times' or is your search not working Tech?


(dons borrowed pedant hat - used 8 times from 2002 - 2004)

thanks tech, have paid. Shall save my new name for a rainy day

Thankyou.

Tech I asked for yorkshirelass and/or yorkshirepudding (yorkshirepudding was def on the available list) but neither are on that list of names that are won, did I get either of them?

go here and log in

i still can't change my name and i paid aaaaaaages ago

bolleaux, sorry my last post was meant for an entirely different thread

Thanks tech

<whispers: my bid was a fiver but you've put me down for a tenner >

sorry, i was far far too impatient!

for tech as he's spending so much time in his shed today

Oh, I said I wanted Infidel and it's not on the list???

have paiud

Thanks Tech, have paid

I've logged into the results page but don't see a buy now button! Could it be that it has bexie as the winning bidder and not BexieID ?

MNHQ, I bid for snowbear, I know I was really late, I'm sorry <hangs head> Can I still have it, it doesn't look like anyone else bid? Pleeeease?

Thanks everyone for organising this, I've paid for snowbird

.

OOhh, <flutters>

Kewl, just paid!

[evil]

Wha-hey! I'm now in disguise

Oh please, can we have a thread of what everyone used to be called, I'll NEVER remember all these changes. Other than obv ones, I won't recognise anyone!

ooh i've paid. am going to try and change now....

in a minute..

hang on...

right then, ...has it worked.....????

yes it has.....woohoo feel like a whole new me!

Hi tech. I asked for Cadders and pledged £10

I was masquerading as Cadburt at the time

http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk?topicid=2728&threadid=318360#6421457

Done it, all paid up.

So can now be Posey or Posie, depending on my mood

Thanks!

I've paid for my lovely new name and here it is...I feel so comfy now.

Right, I have paid.
Any spare choccy comes my way OK?

Just checking my shiny new name works...

yay

I completely missed the auction




<sulk>

Trying out my shiny new name ...er.. hang on... not exactly shiny is it?....

I see that PayPal has a button to 'Return to Mumsnet Ltd'
I had no idea that Mumsnet was limited in any way....

Thanks tech


Well, how does it look <<holds out skirts and does a little twirl>>

Got this name and I can't use it because it is too similar to a much more established poster than little old BellaBear. Sob. Oh well, this will be my one and only post under this name.....

Back in my old name ...

So does this mean I become (gasp, horror).... a name changer?!!

have paid
Might be being stupid but how do i change my name?

Didn't I win 'goose'? It's not there.

Wahey! <<does a twirl>>


And not a number in sight.

Tech, still wondering about snowbear? It was on the list, I bid £5 (eventually )...any chance?

Thx Tech, paid for snowbear

Have coughed up for TigerFeet

Thanks Tech

mwah mwah

<twirls>

that's right that's right that's right ...

[happy]

And I am the only Mars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh yeah!!11

Sparkler1 all paid for and changed to Sparkler with no problems. Thanks.

Crikey! Been away on holiday and missed all this!

Hi Tech, I bid on the name "infinity" anonymously and it's not on the payment list. How do I pay for it?

Space1999 is not my usual name btw, so you could list infinity against this name if you want and I'll know it's mine. So long as you don't list it against my regular name, otherwise it won't be anonymous and I won't be able to use it for nefarious purposes.

Thanks.

I also won a name under my usual nickname, so perhaps I could add the payment for infinity on to that?

No rush, I'm sure Tech has better things to do on a wet bank holiday weekend. I'm not planning any mischief in the near future anyway.

Have coughed up.

MrsH

What a hideous idea - I will now be eternally confused thinking that certain mumsnetters are whole different people [Victor Meldrew emoticon]

Oh bloodyhell didn't realise this had happened until I got mumsnetnews
I'm SO out of touch
Anyway I've paid, and am off to try on my new dress

Ta daaaaa!
Oh isn't this just MARVELLOUS, wait until Rupes sees it, he'll want to just shag me SENSELESS on the Aubusson

I bid £5 for tri but it is not on the list. Can I pay for it?
