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

Well hopefully the title says it all. There's been a suggestion, and we agree, that as we did with Baby P and the Mc Canns we just have one thread where anyone who feels they still have anything to add on this subject can post and those who'd rather move on can hide it away.

It feels strange to put this thread in site stuff as we are definitely not wanting to encourage further discussion of Moldies (we have presents to wrap too you know ) but we weren't sure where else to put it.

We will delete any new Moldies threads that are started, so please feel free to report them in case we miss any (what with wrapping the presents and all...)

And if you do want to carry on the discussion please remember that Mumsnet's here to make everyone's lives easier and not the reverse, and that Christmas is a time of goodwill to all mumsnetters past, present and future

Thanks,
MNHQ

Rev - dd is a big ball of snot and I'm offering her free to any home. Yuck.

needmorecoffee · 28/12/2008 09:02

good lord. It made the papers. I had better leave as MN is apparentlee a forum for middle class yummy mummies
And the language in those quotes
I'm glad all this passed me by.

Rev - can you email me again and remind me what I'm meant to write.

there has been a request made to keep things in this thread. so incase the other thread gets deleted, there has been an article in the independant online. thought i would let you know. - thee is another thread about it - but it could get deleted.

IorekByrnison · 27/12/2008 22:47

Happy Christmas everyone - just been reading up on this in fascinated horror. It's all a bit spooky, isn't it?

jojosmaman · 27/12/2008 22:23

I thought moldies were threads for mumsnet oldies (ie middle aged) and seeing as I am a spritely 29year old chose to ignore it! Darn xmas for distracting me!

I have to say though, it feels like mn has been refreshed and a bit of witty banter has returned, no?

lol Christmas shandy rev

Hello everybody!! Did we survive? My capon with thyme garlic and salt crust (stuffed with sage and red onion) was very tendre.
As was my slow-roasted pork neck with fennel and chilli.
Also I didn't get drunk with stress and fall onto the table which is always good

Are we there yet?

Monkeytrousers · 24/12/2008 19:11

Oh the poor hens. I bet they are ogling the cockerals in the other allotments thinking, 'look at his massive head. I dunno why but that does something to me'

onebatmotherofgoditschilly · 24/12/2008 17:51

LOLOL rusty!!

I'm especially taken with the final two sentences of the description. The ideal man, imo.

"In caponization, the surgical castration of male chickens, the testes of the male chicken are completely removed. As a result, the cockerel fails to develop certain male characteristics or tends to lose them if they are developed. Capons are usually quiet and docile, lacking a cockerel's disposition to fight. The comb and wattles cease growing after castration, so the head of a capon looks small. The hackle, tail and saddle feathers grow unusually long."

Wouild you like your BIL to be docile, with a small head and long feathers, MT?

ruty · 24/12/2008 15:20

LOL

Monkeytrousers · 24/12/2008 15:20

He wouldn;t know what that meant

..Hang on, I don;t know what that means!

If it's good I'll threaten him with it though. Thank you for your prayers!

onebatmotherofgoditschilly · 24/12/2008 15:15

I am praying MT. You could threaten to caponify him if he leers too much.

Monkeytrousers · 24/12/2008 15:06

bloody hell!

I'm off to my sisters for burnt yorkshires and learing BIL's.

Catastrophy is always only a moment away. Pray for me!

ruty · 24/12/2008 15:01
