#frothers Unite!! Time for change.

[northernmonkey]

Hello to all you #frothers
Thought I'd take the liberty of starting us a nice new thread as the other is getting rather full. :)

Morning!

Morning.
Cant say good because it doesnt feel it at the moment :(

Morning.

Morning. Re the blog. I can't promise to get involved as will be going back to work soon and my freedom will be ending but please let me know if you want to use any of my posts MmeL

Can someone explain what 'doing a #ff' is? It sounds like something I could do if that would be any help Although I am a bit of a technophobe, I am a quick learner!

clocking in

#ff is "follow friday" where you tage people on Twitter to let your followers know to follow the new people IYSWIM

Hello

I am crap at twitter. I'm not a technophobe but every time I try to use it I just end up confused

Good morning

Are you okay NM?

Twitter guide here.

Just jump in and start using Twitter. I do recommend Tweetdeck, if that is not too much new stuff at once. You can have a #frothers column

CSA changes

Please can we add this to our frothing? This government are proposing that single parents should be charged to arrange child maintenance with NRP.

It is outrageous.

I have started a thread in campaigns, but I really, REALLY, feel so strongly about this that I think it's definitely worth fighting on two fronts.

Honestly, I could CRY

Posting on here and on old thread

Shirl
Do you want to do a guest post on my blog since you don't want it on yours.

Will have a look.

MNBloggers just tweeted to invite us to be members of network

Looks great! Might the #frothers want to join our network...? mumsnet.com/bloggers-netwo?

(we'd love tohave you #frothers on board - political debate is v welcome in these uncertain times)

charged to arrange child maintenance?? FFS. And there was something else I read about CSA that made my blood... well, froth.

I've submitted something to CH today MmeL.

I'm going to copy across to the frothers blog now (if I can remember how to use blogger )

Thanks sweetie. I don't know why I've sauddenly frothed up about it all again but I have!

If you want to froth on my blog anytime, be my guest.

Someone no Twitter just said that she gets £25 a month. What a joke.

Latest frothers blog post

Pfft - on the Campaign thread there's a woman who gets...wait for it..£1.36 per week.

FFS

I don't seem to be able to do anything.

Hopefully this state of affairs isn't permanent.

Waiting for help.

the csa have always been a joke, my mum was awarded £1 a week for 3 children! the bastard still never paid that

Checking in. Sorry, been busy with real work.

Shirl, I am at the CSA charges. They want to charge and get a cut - or have I read that incorrectly?

Fantastic blog post, my lovely.

I'm trying to sort the twitter thingy... I am totally crappola.

Is anyone watching George Aligiah (sp?) he is talking to someone that maintains Jeremy Clarkson should be allowed to say what he said about people on strike 'because he is Jeremy Clarkson.'

Words actually fail me.

Found you all. Sorry got busy.

RW, #ff is follow friday. On twitter you use it to show your followers who else is good to follow.

with that reasoning can we string him up

...because he is jemery clarkson?

Oh I dunno. Complaining Jeremy Clarkson is being a twat is a bit like complaining shit stinks. Obvious and pointless.

I don't think it's healthy to give Jezza any more air time, breath or column inches. Like a petulant toddler after the telling off it's best to just ignore.

Some good RTing on Twitter. Shirley's blog post going down well. Pls RT it if you haven't already.
