I am boycotting threads about the plight of the McCann family - anyone else?

I have the utmost sympathy for the Mccann family, and hope for a happy ending to thier trouble. Meanwhile I am not happy about many aspects of teh many threads, and hearby resolve to completely boycott them. By not clicking, not reading, nor responding (however horrible the views), and thus not adding to the circular and predicatable route they take, no matter what quality of ontervention is made.

Clasp your right hand over your left Nork and repeat the boycott pledge after me!

Pretty much, except blonde.

(If I had the body of a 21 year old, I'd stretch it and make it all wrinkly )

Littlelapin. We went to a 50th party on sat and our 50 yr old friend, came out, later in a catsuit, black bob wig and onassis glasses. She has the body of a 21 year old. She looked AMAZING. Is that how you look ?

(peachy shamefully hangs her head as she has been lurking here)

Twiglett · 05/07/2007 21:08

peachygirl · 05/07/2007 21:07

Hi all, Ok for the meet ups
I suggest we go for a SE / london one which I am happy to be the liason person for

If you want to get in touch. My email is

I will then send you an email from another address which is more reliable

And a midlands one. So who will volunteer to be the liason for this one???

Bienchen Northampton

If this is OK with everyone we an start to suggest dates.
Everything fine here but I am quite frankly knackered. DD is waking in the night so we have relented and are trying a bottle of formula to see if it will help her sleep a bit longer. My expressing is still going well. tomorrow is friday then only two weeks or 10 days to go.
Maazaa I didn't post to you before but I hope work will be OK for you.

Twiglett · 05/07/2007 19:43

Is my grammatically pedantic thread allowed or must I drop it ?

Its not about the case per se more about the grammatical and spelling inadequacies of the joiners who came in to lambast the site

elesbells · 05/07/2007 19:43

keep me away please. she's off again on the other thread

LITTLE LAPIN!
You were quite clearly seen in full screeching combat on a Shrek spin-off thread, when you had actually been left in charge of the nork clasping ceremony!!! (from the thread you started yesterday)

You are on latrine digging duty until further notice and demonstration of good character!

elesbells · 05/07/2007 19:34

lulumama · 05/07/2007 19:34

Twiglett · 05/07/2007 19:32
