(Inspired by another thread-posts may be entirely fictional)

My 10y old has never had a fizzy drink in his entire life.

I don't allow anyone into my house, ever. We renovated our house and all the builders had to work with blindfolds on because it is a huge breach of my personal space for anyone to see my home with their eyes. Any skilled builder should be able to do this, and should respect your decision.

We decided not to have a wedding, only a civil ceremony, just the two of us.

We gave the money we would have spent on our wedding to one of our friends who can't afford private education. She does struggle, poor thing.

I breastfed my 6 children until they left for university at 16 (would have been earlier but I didn't want to wean too early)

I would never sit out in my front garden because I am categorically not "council".

I wear a mooncup all the time even when I don't need to because, well, it's a mooncup , man, and they are the best thing EVER.

I will dress my son in vulgar looking khaki Clarkes shoes until he is 25 and will never even consider giving him adidas trainers three pairs

Me too Bolton - wish I could meet all of 'us' in person

We did not accept any gifts or money from our wedding guests. In fact, we paid them to attend.

Grin cliff. It was a Mongolian rare breed chicken fed exclusively on the tears of unicorns so despite only getting 75 meals out of it at least they were healthy.

Meant daisies. My hamster corrected me on that.

Only 75 daisy? You're obviously not trying very hard!

Greggs (anyone correct me if I'm wrong-never actually seen one ) sells those things made with puff pastry and sausage meat. The word escapes me...

We used to enjoy tantric sex but we no longer copulate, we have Jacintha so any more children would interrupt my hot housing schedule with her and hold back her socialisation schedule. I use a kind of deep meditation to bring myself to orgasm, I'm unsure what DH does but it's not while he's in the house.

My 12 year old has never been out of my sight. I walk him to school, holding his hand the entire time, and I sit in the corner of the classroom and discuss his progress with the teacher on an hourly basis. It's all very fashionable on mumsnet to say that you believe in letting them have a little freedom because it is good for them, but it's just an excuse to make yourself feel better for your lazy parenting.

Ocado phone me to see what Christmas delivery slots I want before they go online.

PurpleDaisies · 14/05/2016 08:52

I got 75 meals out of my standard sized chicken.

We like to practice tantric sex in traffic on our up cycled tandem.

There's nothing like it to deepen your spiritual connection.

Of course, it's not for everyone, some people find it hard to achieve the correct level of concentration.

LaContessa - how do you mean livestock? Surely everyone is vegan these days?

OohMavis - that one took my breath away. Grin

My husband does this too, but he cycles rather than drives to work. He really cares about the planet. It's totally cool that yours doesn't though.

I think fast food is the same as junk food Dead but I'm not 100% sure, the nice lady in my local artisanal deli had to explain it all to me while I was buying DH's gluten-rehabilitated raw avocado gnocchi.
