Gather round you coven of witches,
For the chance to win some Mumsnet riches,*
As it's that time of year once more,
When (plastic) ravens croak and monsters roar,
And the un-dead climb out from their tomb,
When the night takes on an eerie gloom,
Mumsnetters have but one ambition - to win the Halloween name change competition....

Welcome, you spooky lot, to the 2019 Halloween Name Change Competition.

Enter by posting on this thread under your terrifying new name, which should be a clever play on your usual username.

You have until Monday 28th October to post on this thread with your name change, and we'll then create a shortlist of the ten best ones.

You can then vote for your favourite, which we'll announce on Thursday 31st October. The winner will receive a bundle of goodies from the MNHQ cupboard of treats.

Halloween Grin

*tat

UPDATE The poll is now live so cast your vote nowooooooo!

Circle I think you’ll find you’d be a participant observer. Come along.

TheLidoOfThighs · 09/11/2019 17:16

Don’t be alarmed Josepheen. Here, come and look at our puppies.

DanglyTasselsOfThigh · 09/11/2019 16:50

Oh I see, well that's easy then, the answer to all of those questions is 'I don't know'

Carry on with the Chronicles, they'll be of value to future generations!

I am a chronicler. As such I must be an independent observer like an anthropologist.

THE THIGHMAID'S TALE
Book one: The Lore of Thigh

I need more information.

Do the Thighs have physical bodies?

How many thighs are there? (N=?)
Does this number increase or decrease over time? (N=N-1 / N=N+1)
Does the Thighs' predeliction for cannibalism form a nutritional, religious or sexual function?
Are all marriages in the Thighway conducted with unconscious participants and what part does cannibalism form in the ceremony?
Is the claimed ability to commune with higher beings a load of bollocks?

DanglyTasselsOfThigh · 09/11/2019 15:46

She's one o' them lurkers Thigh I tried to dazzle her with my higher connections but no ...

ThighThighOfthigh · 09/11/2019 15:40

Circe are you saying you eschew the Super Thighway? You're too good for us?

DanglyTasselsOfThigh · 09/11/2019 15:27

"The Lore of Thigh"

Maybe not Circle, I must admit I couldn't concentrate properly with 'Four in a Bed' being on telly. I wanted to see what they had for breakfast in Blackpool!

I'll travel astrally to the outer reaches of the galaxy next time!

CircleofWillis · 09/11/2019 15:14

Hmm, Dangly I'm not sure you went high enough if it was still conscious minds you were consulting.

I'm edging back behind the curtain now so that I can watch you all and take notes. History might need an accurate account. I'll call it 'The Thighmaid's tale", "The book of Thigh", or "The Thighble".

DanglyTasselsOfThigh · 09/11/2019 13:37

Ok the answer has arrived from the highest realms of consciousness, we are many people, with many voices, but we channel The Thighway 'as one'.

DanglyTasselsOfThigh · 09/11/2019 13:32

Wait there Circle, I'll just do some studies and then consult my higher self during a guided meditation with a Tibetan monk and then I'll be fully equipped to answer your question.

I warn you, the answer will be so profound it will blow your mind! 🤯

CircleofWillis · 09/11/2019 13:19

ipecac

CircleofWillis · 09/11/2019 13:18

Oh no thank you! I've been peeping at you guys from a safe distance and have the ipacac syrup to hand just in case. I think I'm definitely an upper body sort myself.

ThighThighOfthigh · 09/11/2019 13:09

Circe that's a very interesting question, we haven't worked that out yet. Come and live with us, you clearly have a strong Inner Thigh.

DANGLY! collect this one.

CircleofWillis · 09/11/2019 13:05

Thighs I am so confused. Are you many people with one voice like Legion or one person with many voices like a Hydra?

I want it paid off in one chunk so I don't have to mind my manners for the rest of my fucking life innit.

DanglyTasselsOfThigh · 08/11/2019 19:51

The cheque hasn't arrived yet Thigh. Maybe MNHQ are planning to make easy monthly payments by direct debit?

Can you pay our mortgages MNHQ? I'd be SO much happier without the mortgage to pay, I just know it!

ThighThighOfthigh · 08/11/2019 19:18

Has your £2m cheque been handed over yet Dangles? I mean, you deserve that for your name change.

DanglyTasselsOfThigh · 08/11/2019 18:13

We ARE the fraud squad!

Well the thraud squad anyway!

Yeah Jo and I've got a cough.

DanglyTasselsOfThigh · 08/11/2019 17:14

No it isn't Josepheen it's allowed! In fact it's encouraged .

We won some Ikea sharks by pleading!
