Do you have to be old to join though? Otherwise you are excluding me

I'm old and very grumpy today so can I join too - please?

(...it really annoys me when people don't say please and thank you...)

um, I like the idea of replacing AIBU whinging with some good old fashioned grumping.

Not sure what counts as old (apart from me, obviously!) but it has to be "grumpy old women" because if it was just called "grumpy women" it wouldn't be needed. I mean, that is what Mumsnet is most of the time nowadays: grumpy women.

Certainly not SDof3!

I've had my children and I'm not adopting any more of them!

but would i be right in thinking singledad, that your gf is actually quite a bit younger than you?

not that you're old or anything.

Was really trying to find out how old VVV is!

VVV is about 26 I reckon.

Well she's definitely not in then!

These youngsters today - think they have a right to everything, including being old[grrrr]

Why the old tart is 30! (Just checked her profile). Huh, and she thinks she is still young. Who are you kidding VVVQV?

thedogsbollox · 12/05/2007 23:02

Nah - have to be over 40 or been on MN for more than 5 years to get in!

Oops - guess I just defined

Oh should we narrow the criteria here then? So what are the prerequisites now: over 40/a Mner for 5plus years, middle class, lentil weaver, and mooncup user?
