Page 27 | Tunnocks Thread 2

The question asked in Thread 1 has still not been answered satisfactorily, and so the quest continues to discover which side of the fence Tunnocks are on or whether they are in fact sat atop the fence throwing Snowballls and Tea cakes at both sides. I have no idea where the link below will send you. hopefully to the original thread and at the start, but it could be a completely different thread half way through. I'm too full of sugar to concentrate properly!

Congratulations Beetle. Will you get your head turned? Become too grand for MN😥?

Nah! Although she might start every post with "As a well known poet......"

Dd is drafting a poem as I type. We are on the station platform with a man dressed in leggings and a T-shirt that is belly button level standing with his hiip cocked and hand on it. Standing near him is a man in jeans and butt covering tshirt and the contrast is striking. I'm all for wear what you want but the obvious bulge is putting me off my wotsits.

It's it bigger or smaller than the wotsit? And for reference I mean the normal size wotsit not the giant wotsits

I'm beginning to think I wasn't daft holding on to the mountain of face masks I purchased when the end of the world was imminent.

Ooooh - congratulations 🎉

Coughs, I will be reading my poem (only one I saved all the rest for volume 2 of OUR book!) at the event, suitably disguised as a Tunnocks ninja (and that may actually turn out to be true if I can't come up with a better way of disguising who I am!)

@CervixSampler it's always time for ice cream!

I've just had a thought, there's those places that make their own ice creams and often have novel flavours. They always have oreo and loftus(?) biscuit but I've never seen a Tunnocks flavour 🙁

Now you said novel and I thought oh "I'll have Under the Duvet of Darkness flavour (Mainly edible, but slightly bitter with a dash of irony) as the bottom scoop with Tunnocks caramel flavour on top, oh and a flake!"

It'd have to be screen shots or you could just make up any old number.

You know this could be one of those things we actually end up despising!

At the moment you can convince yourself that your posts are witty and informative and that everyone loves them as there's no way to know any different,.

But this 👇 on posts if you're sensitive to these things could cause immense psychological trauma to those who may be affected by such things...

goes off to wail in a corner.

I see no gratitude button on the app. Nor is there any sea to sea. Tide is always out.
When we got here it was quiet and we chose a nice spot away from anyone. It's a huge beach. Since then several noisy people have set up camp right next to us. Like 6-10ft away. What is wrong with people? Then they walk right past you flicking sand at you with their dusty crusty feet, I don't like people. Mumsnet is as much social interaction as I need. Is it time for ice cream yet?

Always time for ice cream when you are by the sea!

why do people do that? its like when you are in the doctors waiting room and there is only one other person there then someone comes in and sits right next to you. there's a whole fucking waiting room mate, piss off with your germs breathing on me!

But on the plus side, they will be close enough to see your reading material.

is UTDOD enjoying the sea breeze on its pages, sand on it's cover? hope it doesn't get sunburn and need a lie down. it is after all used to darkness.

Perhaps, what we could do is post an 'ingratitude' below the wanky poster then everyone can thank that post. Although, that wouldn't work because only the 'ingratitude' poster could see it. 'Tis a pickle.

well the poster who posted the word ingratitude could then just post

1098
etc!

I want an ingratitude button 🙁

I love that they knew people would want one but decided to deny us the ability to tell certain posters to fuck off via the medium of an ingratitude button!

We all know what would happen with some posters posts. There would be no way to police 😁 us from pressing it On every post forever!

UTDOD meets my seaside ribbons. They've been there 2 years now.

Nice! I'm impressed they've stayed there two years! They must be so happy to see you

Oh my we have a new button! I've just pressed it On the above post Cervix, only Cervix can see it though!

This is going to be interesting!
