Good one Justine...you almost fooled me there

This is my favourite bit: "one that's a little bit pinker than Mumsnet and a little bit bluer than Netmums"

We did think about avatars and babydust but given BigTech's track record would inevitably have resulted in huge amounts of white space in MN Classic , so we thought better of it... maybe next year though...

and yes the NCT announcement is REAL.

I had me going until Netmumsnetnet.com. Tickers would have been sooooo funny.

"Ds (Year One) is planning to tell his teacher he can't do any homework over the hols as he's going on a space rocket train to the international space station. Hasn't really got a grip on making an April Fool believable yet, bless him. "
lol edam - although I think that's mmore believable than the OP

VipersEatBabyDust.com?

SoupDreggon · 01/04/2009 10:26

It would have been far funnier to change all the emoticons to moving ones overnight without saying anything at all. And possibly add random tickers too.
