I always thing there should be a cats bum smiley. For those dissaproving moments when MNers are shocked judgy at the general world around them.

I am happy to think that tech is a stud muffin.

I see nothing wrong with a bit of tech perving. I am sitting at the pc, looking out at a grey, wet scottish morning, and I've got a lot of cleaning and cooking to do, because dh is bringing a colleague home for supper tonight - so I deserve a bit of something fun!

And re. the studmuffinliness of tech, I trust your judgement Norma!

I can't remember which tech it was. Might have been the original Tech. I would find the thread, but I can't be arsed (and we would probably find that I was the only one calling him a stud muffin )

lol @tech perving

Ohh. Haven't been around long enough to see them.

Tech did have a profile page. Will take a look...

OH ther are seasonal variations on the usual smilies:- Easter (bunny ears), Christmas (santa hats), red nose day (guess what)

But they are just variations on the usual smilies, not a completely new one

There have been scary halloween smilies Norma. Now departed.

Norma - are there any pictures to show the studmuffinliness of Tech?

Perhaps it's a multi purpose emoticon, bonfire - which just goes to show how clever MumsnetHQ and Big Tech are! [crawly emoticon, anyone??]
