I HAVE to take a break for a bit. I am neglecting the ironing.

[mrsseanbean]

I have only been on MN for a couple of months. It's enormous fun, never before have I become so engrossed in a forum and its members, truly something special (as the lovely Justin would say!) But it is becoming just a bit too addictive.

I don't expect anyone knows me well yet anyway... but to all those who do, or have been on my threads and with whom I have shared a laugh, I say thank you and bye bye for a bit....

I will be back!

[compo]

ironing, what's that?!!

[whomovedmychocolate]

LOL - I do the ironing while mumsnetting and watching TV on the iplayer

[WhereTheWildThingsWere]

Oh god was it the hat thread?

Did you get it btw?

Don't be gone too long now.....

[dizzydixies]

hang things up when you're having a shower - there you are, job done

[IAmTheNewQueenOfMN]

what is this ironing you speak of?

[Niecie]

I recognise your name MrsSB.

Good luck with staying away - you are right it is addictive round here. You are obviously made of stronger stuff than me to walk away completely, on purpose.

[TsarChasm]

Oh Mrsbean I have been on one or two threads with you...it is far too addictive though isn't it?

[daftpunk]

what? you cant!....i was just about to name you on this weeks clicky thread....do you know what i was going to say?....i'm gonna tell you anyway!

i have a soft spot for mrsseanbean, because she is v.funny/intelligent/kind...the sort of person you would love to know in RL,.... a breath of fresh air!

come back soon x

There isn't a tombstone ANYWHERE that states "she didn't do enough ironing". Seriously, if your DC are old enough to need ironed clothes then they are old enough to iron themselves.

[Stayingsunnygirl]

And it is actually good for ironing to be ignored - giving in to it will only encourage it, and you'll be making a rod for your own back.

Mind you, I'm a bit spoiled, because if I ignore the ironing all week, dh will do it at the weekend - but then I have to put up with him being a martyr about it.

Perhaps if I offered him sex in return for the ironing, he'd be happier...... At least sex I can do lying down!

[MrsSeanBeanHasGivenUpIroning]

Aw thanks Daftpunk - what a lovely thing to say!

Well that lasted well. Just over 24 hours though Niecie, but you weren't far out. Seems I can't stay away.

[squeaver]

Oh I'll miss you Mrs SB. I can't believe you've only been here a couple of months. I always seem to end up on threads with you. Who gives a fuck about ironing anyway?

[MrsSeanBeanHasGivenUpIroning]

I'm still here though Squeaver, that's the embarassing part!

I was full of good intentions, cold turkey I thought. I think I may just have to restrict my MNing time rather than flounce entirely.

[squeaver]

Oh sorry didn't read the whole thread. Very happy you're still here.
