There will be a short period where Mumsnet is off the air tonight (Wednesday). Hopefully it won't be for more than a few minutes so there shouldn't be any need to, y'know, talk to your partners or anything.

Well I had a lovely time tonight.

Awwww - YMT waited for me to return before turning out the ligh

TrinityRhino · 27/08/2008 23:09

no slubber that was a scary thing out of techs control apparently

mehgalegs · 27/08/2008 23:09

No slub- that wasn't really it.

It seems to be slowing down.

Slubberdegullion · 27/08/2008 23:08

didn't it already happen?

mehgalegs · 27/08/2008 23:08

I'm never usually on here this late - think I'm subconciously hanging in there to see if it's really gonna happen.

Humph - you funny

OhYouBadBadKitten · 27/08/2008 22:54

ermmmm, I think I might get an early night - that way I can remain in control of the situation.

Goodnight fellow mn-ers - travel well on this difficult night.......

Good job i'd planned to watch the 2nd part of Star Trek Voyager on Bravo at 11 then (even though i've seen it before!).

Saturn74 · 27/08/2008 22:48

And now
the end is near
And so we face
The final curt.....

BecauseImWorthIt · 27/08/2008 22:40

Only 20 minutes to go ...

TrinityRhino · 27/08/2008 22:39

lol cocolepew

cocolepew · 27/08/2008 22:26

I'm logging off . You can switch off anytime you want now.

Saturn74 · 27/08/2008 22:09

I wonder if YMT is starting to think that five hours notice gives us just a leetle bit too much time to moan?

DontNeedAnything · 27/08/2008 21:34

Oh do you know what I have just had the most stunning idea on this planet.

Tech you need to go to bed NOW!!!

Then you need to set you alarm for 3:45am...then you can come and switch off MN at 4am in the morning when you normally switch it off anyway so 80% of us won't even notice (sorry Dooney - but it sounds like you already suffer so why make us all suffer???).

Off you go. Night night.

dooneygirl · 27/08/2008 21:22

I missed that, because I ignore all posts by people with tech in their names, lest I start yelling at you all. Strictly for your benefit, you understand.

Looks like I will have to go find a new most unfavorite person on the planet next week. Anyone have any suggestions where to start?

cocolepew · 27/08/2008 21:19

'Fairly complex plan' translated that means they're going to stagger their tea breaks, so there will be always someone ready to put 50p in the meter

ElfOnTheTopShelf · 27/08/2008 21:18

lmao @ all the "oooh, was that it" posts thinking to myself phew, DD took longer to get to sleep than usual... only to find it WASNT it!! Nooooo!

YetMoreTech · 27/08/2008 21:14

dooneygirl, as I mentioned earlier, we're working really hard on a fairly complex plan which will mean we no longer have to shutdown for a few minutes each night around 4am. No promises but it'll probably be up and running some time next week.

Grublin, thanks!
