Fed up of the ConDems robbing the poorest and most vulnerable blind? Sympathetic to the squeezed middle? Have you eyes that can see the horrors that await the dismantling of our welfare state and all that is great and good in UK?

Then you're a frother. This is our safe-space to rally, vent and get organised. You are also welcome if you want to be better informed and/or do something.

God, I didn't realise this thread was full! I changed my customise options and it only says 20 pages, not 40, because I've got more messages on each page.

I'm still a bit sidetracked - 13yo DD has come down with a Tummy Bug, and DS3 still thinks that sleep is for the weak, and that he should be allowed to play with his new toys at ANY hour of the day or night that takes his fancy. Hmm. Oh - and DS2 has caught Ex-P's rotten coldy-fluey thing, and is a bit wheezy. I'm counting the time until it sets his brittle asthma off - I could do with ANOTHER festive season holiday visit.

Oh yes - I managed to fling myself down the stairs while totally sober on Christmas eve, and I have cracked one of my ribs. Just perfect timing to realise that my stair carpet had worn out and was offering NO grip at all...

Had a peaceful Christmas day though!

Fab blog post! What a great start to the 12 days.

AnyFuckerForAMincePie · 26/12/2011 22:51

have a lovely day in the mountains, MMe

and thanks x

MmeLindor. · 26/12/2011 21:35

Have started new thread

I am going to be away in the mountains all day tomorrow, so if someone else could check if there is a blog post ready to go.

If someone has something better than my hastily written and red wine clouded scribble, please put it on the blog.

I will have iphone with me tomorrow and will check at some point if you need anything. Feel free to alter the blog post that I have written if you want something else in there.

Goodnight.

Baby TeWi has indeed arrived - Thus I probably won't be around much for a while - but #frothers rule!

Love you all, thanks for keeping me busy and doing such a fab job keeping the blog up to date and informed.

Oh yes happy birthday to the mini froths!

Hunty have you got that new thread ready? I reckon this one's nearly full. I also reckon the actual St Nicholas would have been a frother Xmas Grin

CardyMow · 24/12/2011 23:05

Do you think Father Christmas would be a frother?

CardyMow · 24/12/2011 23:04

Yay! For the Guardian, and Happy First Christmas to both babyHuntyCat (DS3), AND baby TeWi! Xmas Grin

I don't know if this will work but here's The Guardian link m.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2011/dec/23/guardian-weekend-readers-tips?cat=lifeandstyle&type=article

IslaDoit · 24/12/2011 20:15

Whoop whoop! Tis my recommendation! In The Guardian Weekend mag! Well done lovely #frothers! I've written bog all for the blog but I've been busy on the promotions side... which is dead easy when you're all rather fab Xmas Grin

The mag is that small and the holiday that long I'm hoping lots of people will have a look.
