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.

Apocalyptic [faints]

CantSleepWontSleep · 27/08/2008 20:42

eandh · 27/08/2008 20:41

PuppyMonkey · 27/08/2008 20:40

cocolepew · 27/08/2008 20:40

Where did you go?! That wasn't 'after 11'

FlightAttendent · 27/08/2008 20:40

AAAAHHHHHH are we back on now?

Are we? God that was awful!!!!

TrinityRhino · 27/08/2008 20:39

I hope that was it

and are all my clocks wrong???

SpandexIsMyEnemy · 27/08/2008 19:52

was that it then?

TrinityRhino · 27/08/2008 19:45

no I dont know who you are

are you a regular with a name change on then??

I just thought the name sounds cool and the three things put together have no relation to each other and it usually quite hard to pick a name like that

CuckooSplodgeandTubs · 27/08/2008 19:43

TrinityRhino, do you secretly know me? Those names make sense to me, but I think they are just gobbledeegook to everybody who doesn't know me.

Cuckoo does not mean a husband-stealing 2nd wife by the way! As I know that would make me v. unpopular around here!

Oh. It's "down" now.

Oh bravo. After 11 is fine by me.

WilfSell · 27/08/2008 19:36

Yetmoretech, you're proper funny. Do you secretly MN on the side? Male or female? Did we teach you all our best tricks lines or is it a requirement of the job?

I can see MNHQ drafting the job description, sat round the amoeba shaped table they're hotdesking on, bedecked in Whitestuff combats, LKBennett wrap dresses and flipflops, drinking green tea and actually writing 'must be able to fend off cackling harpies be diplomatic with good humour'

TrinityRhino · 27/08/2008 19:33

cuckoosplodgeandtubs

that is an amazing name, how on earth did you come up with it??

CuckooSplodgeandTubs · 27/08/2008 19:32

Swedes, that's what I was thinking . The May 09 birth threads will be bulging.

I don't have a husband to talk to so I'll have to defect to babykidztipz or whatever it was kalled karen1985! ONLY joking...

S1ur · 27/08/2008 19:31

Just a few minutes.. Is that the punchline to a joke?

How long does it take five techs armed with manuals to change a lightbulb?

Just a few minutes - unless its a bayonet.

Macdog · 27/08/2008 19:30

Fingers crossed I don't have irate drag queen in garden/suicidal neighbour crisis then!!!

verylapsedrunner · 27/08/2008 19:27

I'll be well in to the land of nod by then

onlyjoking9329 · 27/08/2008 19:23

PestoMonster · 27/08/2008 19:23

TrinityRhino · 27/08/2008 19:21

Grublin · 27/08/2008 19:21

Cute baby YetMoreTech

BecauseImWorthIt · 27/08/2008 19:16

I reckon he's doing it just to toy with us. Just to make us realise how much power he has over all us vulnerable women.
