We ask because obviously we know the harsh reality but we're looking to reveal all put a pic on our Twitter page. So, we'd love to hear your ideas on what you want to see at Mumsnet Towers.
The Shed?
Justine's untidy desk corner office?
Our Studio60 style countdown clock to the full moon?
MNHQ's feral children creche?
TIA as ever

I imagine it to look a bit like the penthouse flat on The Apprentice but an office version all sleek lines and minimialist.

Oy Custardo, that looks remarkably like my house

Tortington · 05/06/2009 16:28

whomovedmychocolate · 05/06/2009 16:21

Will do Justine.....but it's umm in a small number of places - however one is very obvious....hang on.....

scottishmummy · 05/06/2009 16:20

well quite imagine all the irate huns bumping gums if they had your number

Tortington · 05/06/2009 16:18

WAT?! MY mobile number on the web - that's a worry given how many folk I pee off on a daily basis. Can you mail me and tell me where WMMC?
txs

whomovedmychocolate · 05/06/2009 16:16

Custardo, don't let my DH see that!!!!

He already has a man shed with a bedroom, lounge with fitted wine racks, tool room and sleeping loft. It's like the anti-mumsnet zone.

Tortington · 05/06/2009 16:16

tree pod
i think i have a new fetish

Tortington · 05/06/2009 16:14

shed pub

scottishmummy · 05/06/2009 16:13

i imagine the lunchtime work out tech glistening in green shorts

all after a hard day tapp tapping

whomovedmychocolate · 05/06/2009 16:10

Anyway...here's my guess

whomovedmychocolate · 05/06/2009 16:10

scottishmummy - ah I don't think people would shout at Justine, just say 'well done'

Mind you it's astonishing how much info we all leak on a daily basis online.

fruitshootsandheaves · 05/06/2009 16:09

I've said it before but I ALWAYS picture you all at MNHQ in the disneyland castle.

here it is I think the fireworks must be a result of Tech doing something with the wiring

Tortington · 05/06/2009 16:08

ivory tower in never -ending story becuase its a never ending story

midnightexpress · 05/06/2009 16:07

Maybe a bit like this (with a shed)

Greensleeves · 05/06/2009 16:06

It looks a bit like Beauxbatons Academy, shimmery white marble with blue slate turrets. With a big kickass swimming pool and a pub next door.

GentleOtter · 05/06/2009 16:06

posh shed with towers but made with cheese and looks a tad phallic kind of link

JustineMumsnet · 05/06/2009 15:58

We need a pic of a shed with towers!
(Does Alexia count as a posh coffee machine ?)

Blackduck · 05/06/2009 15:58

ABetaDad's image made me smile, partic the image of the server with a fan to keep it cool The pizza boxes would be all Tech's of course...

madwomanintheattic · 05/06/2009 15:55
