Internet Award went to Mumsnet for their online mums community website, but you can find them here too at @MumsnetTowers #RHW

Well done to all of you. You deserve some champagne recognition for all the good work. Especially after the weekend and all the changes to MN and hysterical vipers wailing at you

Send a bottle down to the shed to the TechyOne

Wow, congratulations MNHQ.

Well done! (what's it actually for, if you don't mind me asking?)

Wow congratulations.
Whatever it is.

Hello Helen Mumsnet Sorry not to see you in your glad rags picking up the award too.

Well done!

Have a or three

well done!

Hurrah! Well done MNHQ, very well-deserved!

What a powerhouse MN is!

Is it because we are all hot women?

Helen are you on out of hours deletion and trouble duty again?

You should have a pay rise

(I never said that justine, DH was typing)

Well done MN though.

Oooh how exciting, new smiley, and an award on the same day, well done

Have a plate of biscuits [ __ ]

(i stole that from TMW)

Well done MN!

yes, i think SB is mnner

how exciting
you should sticky this

we DESERVE to know we are all seen as hot women <deludes self>

Helen you should dock her wages for not being able to type us properly

Justine, if ever a website was about encouragement and support and viperishness its MN. When your our fabulousness is recognised, shout it out! Girlfriiiieeeend

I've been off MN for ages but well if there was ever a reason for legging it back!

Well done all who sail in her!

What in all that is holy is that new smiley about????????????????????????????????????? It is more like a chicken than any biscuit I have seen.

'Ledodgy - don't be ridiculous! Helen pays us to work here.'

Eh? I only asked if it was because we are all hot women. <confused>

Do. I'll shoulder the blame if necessary. But I'll also bask in any glory that is thrown your way too/

aw, that's great. congratulations! AND you got to meet Jools Oliver.

Justine are you and your pals from MNHQ going to join us at this years xmas do and we can all celebrate together

Well Done MN

Ok so I was slightly under the influence of wine when i posted last night but that new smiley is still not saying 'biscuit' to me.

Here's the write up!

Congrats ladies!

Just read Red in the bath as up at silly o'clock.

Carrie - love the dress and Justine love your top and shoes - where are they from?

You both look gorgeous - no mn diy haircuts there!

Brilliant and so well deserved.and have another .

Biscuit? Is it? Is it a comic relief biscuit?
<confused>

Well Done on the award though!
Did netmums win anything Did you do an Oscar stylee acceptance speech?

Isn't Red Hot Women a porn site?

You're not coming just to sell us Christmas cards are you? <suspicious>

You both look great!

I still have some of my Xmas cards from last year. Of course I can't actually remember who i sent them to last year. Only very special people!

congrats MUMSNET, you very much deserve it, well done

Ooh well done MN.

<----------- Why, in heaven's name, why?

Has nobody contemplated the contribution of this new smiley to the Global Electronic Zeitgeist?

And yes, congratulations by the way.

Of course, I knew all about it anyway...

<stands up, Spartacus-stylee>

I am Sarah Brown.

Many congratulations - so well deserved. I'm delighted for you

Hurrah!
Well done Mumsnet HQ and all the Mumsnetters who waste contribute hours of their lives here,...sharing their experience and support.

Women (and some lovely men too), I salute you.
Have a jammy dodger

PS: I do love the biscuit, but it looks a bit out of place as all the other faces have a black outline.

I'll get my coat.

<slinks off to Pedants' Corner>

I want your cardigan, Carrie. Where's it from

You both look most gorgeous in the pic. Well done.

That is a very nice photo - congrats to you and MN Towers. And nice one Sarah Brown

Congratulations mn!

ok so I googled Red Hot Women and the first link was this one "slightly scary"

Maybe that's the MN towers charity calendar?

Boco you may have an idea there! I'm sure there's an MNer who'd be willing to cover up their bits with a Gregg's sausage roll and a couple of fruit shoots to be Ms January, all in a good cause...

Oh we should soooo do a WI style calendar!!

Congrats all

I'm picturing May mumsnetter coyly hiding bits behind a parent and toddler car parking sign! This could really work.

Red Hot Women? Sounds a bit FHM Top 100!

Or a bit 'Menopause Today'.

just had to try it

Well done that's excellent news!!!

<high fives all roud>

Congratulations!

Great shoes!!

Did Sarah Brown really tweet this:

"awesome women-fest at Red's Hot Women Awards - everyone thinking everyone else is brilliant!"

Great if she did.

Huge Congratulations Mumsnet!!!! As a first time mum, can I just say that I'd have been bloody lost at times without MN this year. It has been somewhere to seek advice without prejudice, vent, giggle at the deluded really talented x factor line-up, and has made me laugh out loud and cry in equal measure - but the latter is probably the hormones. I'm going all soppy now.

Thoroughly deserved MN!

Just looked at Sarah Brown's Twitter page. I'm very impressed.

Come on MN, she's got nearly 1M followers!

Good lord, that made me cry.

On that basis, I've just upgraded my cold to flu. <goes back to bed>

Well done HQ.

Glad you put this in the news email, you should take credit. Women are terrible at this. If this were any other site it'd be all over their homepage.

<notices it's all over the homepage now, show offs>

The shoes are fantastic. I must confess, I have just read Red at my desk (at lunchtime, of course) and flicked past that article. I thought it'd be a load of eco-mums all growing their own veg.

Congratulations!

Wow you both look Bodentastic!

Congratulations mn, very well deserved.

Boco - a strategically placed lemon drizzle cake for March, perhaps?
June peeping shyly from behind a hanging school run dress?
April holding two flylady feather dusters in front of her?
(This is my idea for a mumsnet charity calendar, in case everyone thinks I've lost it. Although I probably have .)

Congratulations mumsnet

were you all styled to within an inch of your lives? please tell me that you were, the idea that you all swooshed up looking like that is intolerable.

DEFINITELY styled

Carrie normally looks styled but normally Justine wears no make-up and a mini-skirt...

I'd put money on it

i know, but what if they just decided to Make An Effort that day and that's what they all grabbed out of their fancy wardrobes? it's too, too much. those HEELS.

actually maybe Justine does wear make-up and I've given her a terrible insult

she doesn't wear THAT much though

I know she wears mini-skirts because after the last MN drink-up I just had 200 pictures of her thighs on my phone

yeah I bet Justine couldn't stand up in those heels

i bet if she had have done her head would have been out of shot.

I have heels like that

they reduce my BMI into the the 'healthy' range

roffle

is it in newspapers?never heard of red hot women award

Well done Mumsnet - well deserved! Carrie and Justine, you both look fab!

<-- I came home from Sainsburys with a pack of these in my shopping tonight, and haven't bought them for years - now I know why - subliminal!!!!

i don't like the eyes, btw. i think the biscuit would be a great deal more enigmatic without them.

I didn't think it needed the eyes either. Love the detailing on the rim and the colour.

detailing on the rim sounds obscene

Is scalloping any better?

ask her about jack russelling, lenin.

Daren't Aitch, not sure my constitution is strong enough.

DOH I thought that was a reasonably well-know phrase among the ladies

Now my relatives think I'm a pervert

You ARE a pervert MP. Did you keep all the photos of Justine's thighs?

I just googled it thinking it couldn't be as bad as dragonbutter and got an MN thread up!

I imagine J & C as laydees who Make An Effort every day, to be honest.

I think, morningpaper, you have all those pictures of Justine's thighs because you ended up on the floor last year.

<helpful>

Yes sorry it was the wrap dress [or wrap style?] that made me think Boden.

Whatever, you both look very glamourous.

Congratulations, but more importantly where was that white sparkly top from. cheers.

Well done!

Justine I think Red's Readers will be expecting a mumsnet calendar next year now!

Thanks Justine, way out of my league. Looked lovely.
