Why doesn't Justine come on MN and discuss thongs

160 replies

Puggsville · 08/08/2017 11:36

I love MN and have no intention of flouncing. I'm also not invested in The Thread That Must Not be Named, but ..

Lots of MNetters are upset/angry/confused about that and other matters. Long term posters are getting banned. Moderation policy is bewildering.

I remember when it were all fields round here Justine used to regularly engage with the membership. Can't she do it again, to resolve matters and show us we're still loved?

Hey all - I can confirm that Justine is indeed on her summer break.

I want to say that we'll debrief her when she gets back, but that now sounds every kind of wrong in the world.

More seriously - we will of course be talking through the big issues that have been raised over the last few days with her as soon as she gets back. I'm hoping she manages to get a few days break though - she works like a Trojan for 99% of the year.

Sloggis stand up to everything!

(As, I am sure,does the lovely Pencils)

PencilsInSpace · 08/08/2017 21:14

I was mentally unwell and ran away to join a self-sufficient commune. It was the making of me and they weren't a cult at all the sloggis stood up to lots of hand washing and physical labour

TheRollingCrone · 08/08/2017 20:18

Pencils I need to know why you were ruuning-away to Ireland. ..And good choice on the sloggis

PigletWasPoohsFriend · 08/08/2017 20:03

look out for them in a sale - they really sort out all arse probelms!

Not sure anything could sort out my are problems

ilovesooty · 08/08/2017 20:02

And Dawn.
And YetAnotherHelen and YetAnother Becky.

magimedi · 08/08/2017 20:01

Pencils (lovely to see you!) - look out for them in a sale - they really sort out all arse probelms!

(And for all obsessive MN washers - they come up whiter-than-white in a 40C wash!)

Thongs and the woolly huggers on crack. The highlight of my MN day!

So when Justine gets back from her hols, she can chuck some thongs in the washing machine and get on here and chat to her product. Sorted 😀

They are known as the 'Rolls Royce' of underwear - I can vouch for that

Me too. I've only ever owned two pairs of sloggis which were my running-away-to-Ireland knickers, bought at the airport when I was 19. They were the bollocks! I should get myself some more.

HistoriaTrixie · 08/08/2017 19:42

How many people ARE there at MNHQ?

There's Fliss too.

magimedi · 08/08/2017 19:40

All the problems with undercrackers would be solved if everyone wore Sloggi knickers.

They are known as the 'Rolls Royce' of underwear - I can vouch for that, I've been wearing 'em for 20+ years & never get in a tangle*

*Can get in a tangle that I choose, however

Sittinginthesun · 08/08/2017 19:38

Update - RowanMN had indeed just confirmed on another thread that Justine is on her hols.

PencilsInSpace · 08/08/2017 19:31

Gets my vote

LilaoftheGreenwood · 08/08/2017 19:12

I see we responded with a sensitive mix of mockery and lechery, which is probably why we're not allowed to talk to them

CocoLoco87 · 08/08/2017 19:11

Sittinginthesun I read that as 'erotic biscuits' maybe all the thong talk has turned my mind to smut

FruBayerischOla · 08/08/2017 19:08

Oh yes, the Movember thread www.mumsnet.com/Talk/have_you_seen_pictures/1613200-Them-taches-are-a-growing-Come-gasp-at-the-MNHQ-Men-and-their-Movember-face-furniture featuring the MN chaps' moustaches!! I can't believe it was 5 years ago

justanothernameagain · 08/08/2017 19:07

Why are the police involved?

Oh sorry I don't want to start rumours!

No idea if the police are actually involved or not -- that was for effect!

LilaoftheGreenwood · 08/08/2017 19:04

The Techs are allowed out on threads once a year to do Movember

NerrSnerr · 08/08/2017 19:03

Isn't there Rowan and Emmanuel too?

WeDoNotSow · 08/08/2017 19:03

I feel like ive missed something. Who's been banned? Why are the police involved?

justanothernameagain · 08/08/2017 19:03

Sittinginthesun

FruBayerischOla · 08/08/2017 19:02

And there are loads of XXTech people, but they're not usually allowed to talk to us.

I miss MainTech (Steve, who was the third person to set up MN)
