Here it is, the shiny after party thread carried on from Salsa's epic thread here:

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/_chat/4272664-To-see-how-quickly-we-can-fill-up-this-thread

All welcome - you can post more than once, just don't double post or no trophy for you!

Party on dudes, and be excellent to each other 🎉

BOOM

I was post number 800, 900 and 1000.

Thank you thank you @UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa for providing this struggling new mum on mat leave with the greatest achievement of the last year.

Omg wow! Will this be your first grandchild? Thinking of her x

Can’t wait for baby and husband to wake up in the morning and share what I did. Doubt my husband will be impressed lol. Should I say it at the 3am feed or wait for 6am wake up?

Well done BakeOff!

Okay, I say the no-double-posting should go into effect tomorrow.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 19/06/2021 22:22

@KurtWilde

I almost asked if you were pregnant! I just knew it was baby related!!

Congratulations on first grandbaby (from what I gathered) on the move! how exciting!!!

KurtWilde · 19/06/2021 22:22

Thanks all!! I'm bricking it a bit tbh, can't even go visit her but she has a fab OH so I know she's in good hands. Second grandchild - another little boy. I already have a 15 month old grandson courtesy of my DS.

And primary aged kids at home too. I'm a young granny Grin

Thank you @KurtWilde

I like the no-double-posting rule added some tension Yh o

PurpleyBlue · 19/06/2021 22:23

Curry was good. Am tired after socialising. Am not used to it. Will now hibernate for 3 more months.

NigellaSeed · 19/06/2021 22:23

Congrats GrannyKurt!

UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa · 19/06/2021 22:23

Being able to hit all three of those is impressive, especially considering your sleep-deprived brain is a bit mushy.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 19/06/2021 22:25

@BakeOffRewatch
greatest achievement
😁
I call 2nd greatest. after your LO!!😘

sorry you are struggling. anything we can help with?

BakeOffRewatch · 19/06/2021 22:25

The first two were luck, the last was reading @NigellaSeed’s post and furiously typing lol. I did a full stop first rather than an exclamation mark and was worried I’d miss out! Sorry @nigella, but couldn’t have done it without you setting it up!

HannaHat · 19/06/2021 22:26

Place marking for tomorrow 👍🏻

KurtWilde · 19/06/2021 22:27

It started moving so fast towards the end there! Salsa did you clock roughly how long it look to fill up?

BakeOffRewatch · 19/06/2021 22:29

Ah thank you @ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba, just the usual stuff, I’m enjoying the light hearted ness here though. I am part of one of the postnatal club chats on another part of MN too.

It’s really weird to see the green posts and it’s like oh wait that is not @UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa!

UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa · 19/06/2021 22:30

Oops! Mine was for BakeOff.

And, yes, now I see we'd better fully keep the no-double-posting. Otherwise, the trophy would be worthless. Smile

I have GOT to get some sleep. But I feel great about our accommplishment (silly though it may be) and I'm thrilled to hear about Kurt's fantastic news!
