This is a terrible name isn't it? It makes people think am awful pervy trucker type. And yet can't quite divest self of it... Pointydog, have been here forever and am actually compiling "Babies" but that's all I can say. Haven't got MP's stomach for being "outed" (or anything approaching her notoriety)...

Mine came this morning, had a quick flick through while ds1 was having a whining strop looking for inspiration on what to do (which meant I was actually ignoring him and he gave up so the book works!) and will have a proper look later while feeding ds2. Looks good so far though.

oh, yes, let's have all the mumsnetters writing a mumsnet book.

Let's see, Justabout could do a worshippy one, Califrau could do a "living in California" one, I could do a... erm...

ok. Bad idea.

I want a copy!

why are Justine's elbows stuck to he body in that YouTube clip? Was it a fight with a toddler/preschooler who was armed with a tube of superglue and an evil grin?

lol if the veg thread is anything to go by it would start off sensibly and descend into role playing and bickering

Franny, why don't you ask Justine if you can write a Mumsnet guide to weird fruit healthy eating?!

Yes, but it is very hard. Some names come up all the time for the quotes. I am trying so hard to make it representative of the rich spectrum of opinion and practices but some folk just post about weaning and nappies and others post almost obsessively about "love" so....

morningpaper · 02/02/2009 20:56

I don't know Squonk TBH

I've helped to Mumsnetify up some parts of some of them i.e. add knob gags here and there which Justine then takes out again

fryalot · 02/02/2009 20:54

are they mumsnetters, mp? are they, are they?
