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

oh and being on my own for 24hrs over Christmas/Boxing day - going to be a bit weird.

Which reminds me - must try and get some Ben and Jerry's to gorge on for Thursday night.

goldFAQinsenceandmyrrh · 23/12/2008 23:45

nah I'm ok onebat - just can't get my head round Christmas this year, first since exH and I split (which is bad enough) but then last Christmas in this house too.

goldFAQinsenceandmyrrh · 23/12/2008 23:43

actually it shouldn't take too long, at the time I shoud have been planning the 9 Lessons and Carols I just couldn't shift past the end of November (DS3's Christening) into December at all in my mind. Could only come up with plans for Easter - so already got some, just need to get the script out of the play I was hoping to do this year (but it was cancelled as I wasn't well) and planning the music to fit between the scenes......

FAQ, (sorry might be late to this) you sound very low - are things not going well?

onebatmotherofgoditschilly · 23/12/2008 23:41

VanessaParody, I'm sure I'm not the first and I'm sure I won't be the last, but might I congratulate you on your adoption of the perfect MN name? It is clever and also alyooring.

VanessaParody · 23/12/2008 23:40

Well FAQ, it's as good a plan as any other.

My piles are stinging so if you all don't mind, I shall mince off to bed. G'night.

NotanOtter · 23/12/2008 23:39

lol onebat

goldFAQinsenceandmyrrh · 23/12/2008 23:38

I'm think I'll just muddle through Christmas day until 4ish, pretending it's all jolly, the start planning the Good Friday (yes Easter) service. Boxing day when the DS's get back in the afternoon I'll watch the DS's on their Wii and feed them cakes and rubbish, then wake up on Saturday and forget that we've even just had Christmas.

NotanOtter · 23/12/2008 23:38

preview. always preview.

onebatmotherofgoditschilly · 23/12/2008 23:37

Really NAO>?>? they are freakoids, surely?

DP is from Yorks and I've never heard of such a thing. Which means nothing - I didn't know that he had parents until last week. Do they heat it through, or is it an entirely different dish?
Do they eat it, or worship it?

ruty · 23/12/2008 23:37

i went to ELC today to get stocking fillers. They had a big sale on. It was almost worth getting trampled on by psychotic shoppers happy passers by.

pooka · 23/12/2008 23:36

God - had forgotten about the dress!

It'll be a chocolate one next year, mark my words! 9bah humbug)

It's my god-daughters birthday 13th, DH 18th and close friends on Christmas Eve and New Years Day. The latters birthday was bloody awful because he would force us to go out to celebrate whilst nursing the biggest hangovers of the year. God, we looked green. Fortunately having kids has got us off the hook.

holidaywonk · 23/12/2008 23:35

Good night Effie

Telly was shite tonight. I looked at the listings and was pleasantly surprised at how much I wanted to watch, then realised I was looking at last night's. Great.

BitOfFunUnderTheMistletoe · 23/12/2008 23:34

Nighty night Effie! Custy- get thee a DVD of It's A Wonderful Life as soon as possible! It cures all possible ills...

onebatmotherofgoditschilly · 23/12/2008 23:34

Hot pork pie?
Do you know what pork pie is, my dear?
