Come and celebrate our new [thanks] emoticon by saying Thank You to a Mumsnetter who's made a difference. Spot prizes to be won and all!

..... for Chaos. As a shameless 'I am sorry please I am not worthy' for changing back my username to baby letters.

I Luff you

Ooh and Lougle for some well timed if potentially controversial advice

Can i nominate two people please?

Firstly, Shabbs from the bereavement board. She is always there to reach out to others, always ready to give some of herself, despite having gone through some of the worst things imagineable. She is a truly inspirational lady who holds herself with great dignity and poise, and i feel honoured to call her a friend.

Secondly, Lissielou. She too, is another wonderful MNer, always ready with a kind word for folks despite going through tough times herself. She has been a rock and really deserves some recognition.

I'd like to thank the Shineys, past and present, for their warmth, laughter and support over the last couple of years. And for the slight stigma of cuntdom which stops me ever being TOO popular

to everyone on the blanket threads - particularly regulars like KnottyLocks, Pistey, Herbie, DutchOma, NessaRose, Trumpton and loads of others who I can't think of right now who have listened to me whinging when my shitty day job has got in the way of the crochet!!

to Custy who told me to get a grip in 2005 when ds was tiny, I was in a weird country and struggling a bit. She said it over something quite trivial but I realised actually a grip was needed in general and it really helped :)

And lots of to everyone on the miscarriage/pregnancy loss board for being there when I thought I might go mad. And to harassedandherbug for being with me every step even though she was going through the same thing herself at the same time.

to all the mums from the aug 08 threads, was so nice to have a thread to share our pregnancies, a place to come & moan etc!

I'd like to say thanks to MmeLindor, for being there to chat to and for helping me through dark times

To the lot of you - I'm terrible with names but you don't arf make me laugh .

HMTheQueen
for the the PG Tipps. :o

To Maryz for althogh she sounds like she has plenty on her plate coming upwith lots of advice for others stuggling with teenagers (thanks) Ha ha I dont know how to add asmiley

to all the wonderful ladies who take the time to give so much help and advice on the breast and bottlefeeding board. I am probably one of many who scoured the board in a sleep-deprived haze, desperate for answers and support.

for being there - couldn't have done it without you.

MN for returning all my calls and texts, and remembering my birthday; and for just being you.
I love you just the way you are, the way you loooook tonight, now will you go all the way with me?


then a

to every single mumsnetter who has ever said something kind or supportive to anyone who has suffered a pregnancy loss.

InstructionsToTheDouble

Here for you for always xx

Damn, I wish I'd read this thread earlier, I've already misused it and complained about the woolies'

Can I to purplepidjin, knottylocks and lydia for their work on the blankets. They're endlessly polite, helpful and resourceful

to all the Feb 2011 ladies, especially ledkr who has had a pretty shitty time of it but always, always makes me laugh.

And to miffles for being lovely. :)

Wow....

Mumsnet wouldn't be the same without any of you.xxx

to the ladies on the Sleep Nightmares threads. There have been many, but Cosmosis, Bumperlicious, JudysDreamHorse, narmada, bigkids, missrose and 4madboys spring to mind. I wouldn't have got through the first six months of this year without them.

Also to Iggly for not only giving excellent advice on sleep, but also having the decency and foresight to live just down t'road

Another to Tiktok and all the lovely people who've answered questions on bf.

to my December 10 post-natal group for being a lovely bunch of coconuts people.

to all the BESH and to the lovely supportive people on the freak out room in Conception. You have helped me through some really tough times in the last year.

Sorry, really quickly want to thank Chocamum for her expertise on eczema and her ongoing support. Tbheveryone on my thread in Allergies titled 'Argh eczema help please' has been really helpful and kind.
