Amelia Hill, Social Affairs Correspondent for the Observer writes:

I am writing an article about the huge success of online parenting sites and why they are so useful.

I need to speak to a mother who can talk me through what sites like mumsnet.com mean to her - especially compared to parenting books or magazines.

As always, I'm afraid my deadline is very tight: I need to speak to someone tomorrow (Friday, 29th February), so can I please urge anyone who wants to help me to get in touch asap!

Many thanks

I think anyone up for it would have to call her (rather than her call them) and leave a number for her to call back - even if we had numbers we would never give them out.

Or alternatively just call/email tonight with your version of "what Mumsnet means to me" (sounds like an essay question )

Don't think it matters how many get it touch. Think it's a question of the more the merrier!

Thanks all

I'd be happy to!

Lulumama · 28/02/2008 19:42

good point, is it under user name or real life name?

saltire · 28/02/2008 19:42

And I wouldn't want DH, or MIL to read it and find out my user name and then search for all the things I've said about them

McDreamy · 28/02/2008 19:42

What do we need to do? Ring her?

Lulumama · 28/02/2008 19:40

saltire · 28/02/2008 19:40
