If you (still) feel the need to discuss Moldies, please do it here so folks can hide this if they want to.

banana - the only thing that anyone can guarantee in all this mess is that if you'd said fuck more you wouldn't appear in the paper.

Your words might but somehow the journalists would find someone else entirely to pin them on ...

...it was the circle of life thing...

Also I was still worried that MP was going to post something about shoving stuff down the toilet, and wanted to head her off.

hunker where did that come from!

yes she did mention it on that thread, but according to moldy information, it wasn't the first time it had been mentioned on mumsnet.

Hunker i wrote my post in the belief that the previous poster i was refering to, was wrong.

thats all.

Unless i get special rights by being quoted in the telegraph?

Lolol at 'Ive killed a hippy'!!! I love that sketch

Captain pants - well, I've read all of it. All of it. I am exhausted and I read most of it a week ago.

It is distressing, you won't find out a clear version now unless you read the lot, i think. But like people say it isn't up to me what people write about. I can always go and do something else. But i do think everyone ought to be made to read it all if they are that bovvered.

Wished I had said fuck alot on my post further down. I could have been quoted in the paper and been famous .

LOL cat. No idea why you've posted it, but LOL.

I really cant be bothered to read nearly 2000 messages on the subject , just wanted to catch up on what has been mentioned in the media.

If old ground is being gone over and over then so be it , come off MN and do something else if it causes you too much distress.

Golly - excellent christmas present pag. I got a lovely bracelt but alas my wrists are tres bony as in large boned and back it must go.

NEIL: [picks up a large bag of seed packets] OK, I've plowed this bit, right. And now I'm going to sow it. [throws packets of seed down] This self-sufficiency thing really is amazing. We sow the seed, right. Nature grows the seed, and then, we eat the seed. And then, after that, we sow the seed, nature grows the seed, and then, we eat the seed. And then, after that again, we sow the seed, nature grows the seed....

RICK: Oh, shut up, Neil! Shut up! Shut up. It's pathetic. I mean, what about radical magazines? What about Kicker boots?! Can we grow them? No, we can't, can we?! They beauty of your plan, Neil, seems to rest on everyone being really into seeds.

NEIL: No no no, Rick. You don't understand the timeless wonder of the whole thing. We. Sow the seed! Nature grows the seed. We eat the seed. And then....

[Rick clobbers Neil with a shovel. Neil collapses, unmoving.]

RICK: All right. Now, shut up. [pause] Come on, get up Neil, there's a lot of work to be done. Neil? Neil?! [bends over, feels the body] Oh, God! Oh, God, I've killed a hippie! I've killed a hippie, and now I'll have to pay. Oh, God. Vyvyan's bound to tell on me, and I'll get sent to prison and raped in the shower by Mr. Big who's in with the warders. Oh! Burn the corpse! Burn the corpse.

[tries to light Neil, but he won't catch fire]

...

As there are SOOOO many people on this thread can I just mention that I got some Christian Louboutin shoes from DH for christmas. He chose them and they are lovely. Plain black, kitten heels...

as you were

I need to find the part of the thread where we were talking about cocktails

It's kind of hard to do that on my iphone

@ WSW and LL7 - alors please don't assume they represent the majority fo m'netters.

...its the circle, the circle of life....

OMG I wish this wasn't on my threads now! Surely all this has been gone over and over and over - people, you can read the whole lot on the other threads, or even on this one if you can be bothered. Why is it being rehashed again and again? It's turning into Chines whispers, it's not possible to get a straight factual potted history so please just stop.

Justine mentioned it twice on Twig's original thread, Custardo. She's since also said she's fine with its existence. If people are carrying on the indignance in her name, I'm really quite sure she'd rather you didn't bother. If it's some other reason, as you were.

ok, i may be proven wrong, but justines part in all this was to write a post on the MN blog telling the WWW that old members had left and made room for new ones ( but much nicer than that)

then twiglett posted that it was hurtful and it all kinda unravelled from there.

It all started here:

www.mumsnet.com/Talk?topicid=_chat&threadid=669385-Oh-what-an-interesting-blog-entry-this-week-MNHQ- and#13621161

And then went on to many other threads until they were all full too.

But the OP in terms of sudden public realisation that there was a moldies site, including justine's MNHQ comments are in the link.

WSW and LLou have just kicked off on my "lets be nice to each other" thread;

FFS.

I give up.

October !

So quite a few would have kept it a secret from the rest of us then !

So did Justine 'expose ' them then and tell them not to do it ?

it was a secret - and justine didn't mentio it at all!
