Introducing CatherineMumsnet

109 replies

JustineMumsnet · 18/01/2008 13:27

We're very excited on account of the fact that we've got some new blood round here at Mumsnet Towers in the form of the very lovely CatherineMumsnet. She's here to do general site duty/ editorial bits n bobs and to look after competitions while Olivia goes off to have her baby. (Did we tell you Olivia was preggers - we're very excited about that too?)

Anyway you'll be seeing Catherine around and about - we know you'll be nice and gentle, after all we've all been the the new girl on the block in our time .

(Am just scheduling her in for weekend duty next full moon by way of an initiation).

Will Catherine be like the supply teacher? A tough role at the best of times.

I think it's totally fab that you managed to find another person with the Mumsnet Surname! Or has she just "married in.." so to speak

It WAS Olivia I met at the beginning of the Christmas Meet Up wasn't it? Sorry, I subsequently got so very drunk that the name flew out of my mind...
She was definitely pregnant...

Only I was wondering, did you get your photos developed? Because obviously you've got nothing better to do than email those you took of me and the Shiny possee now that you're going on maternity leave and all... Good luck with the baby

Welcome Catherine!! Talk to us! We don't bite.. often!
