Happy Sundays everyone. I have started the week with a rant about the Zara Mike non story in the Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday. Here.

BTW - just so you know this isn't a sponsored post. These are our real favourite crisps!

Commented on ur post Petite (Sunday one just noticed I'm a day behind!) I think we've all guessed that Kate would be compared with Diana all the time :(

BsDad, totally understand your worry. Hope that everything goes well for your son!

Queen, I think I'll get myself a glue gun as well haha! Wonderful! Thanks for instructions too

Hehe Dilly! I actually have a link to your blog from mine! I lobe your blog, can't wait for your next yarn bomb and your sheep counting vid made us laugh, sorry f it wasn't meant to be funny!

FB sorry for the HUGE comment!!

Mme, that's cool with what Railway children are doing! I can't believe only 1/3 of parents report their children missing! That's just terrible!

Here is mine, Raymond Blanc's Lemon Cake, my favourite Lemon Cake recipe, give it a go!

angie80uk · 03/10/2011 13:51

Oo and I have followed and RT too for Railway Children, they have Diversity participating as well! (I know I'm too old for this, but they really are cool!)

FlamingoBingo · 03/10/2011 19:32

Angie - I loved your huge comment! :)

DaddyCool1980 · 03/10/2011 20:42

Comments welcome!

Hi all, just popping in quickly after my knitting group to revel in my MN Blog front page fame Grin

Angie, it's ok if you found the sheep video funny, it was quite funny, I just found it quite mesmerising though Grin

FlamingoBingo · 03/10/2011 22:14

Go you, Dilly! Smile

FlamingoBingo · 03/10/2011 22:16

Hi Daddycool :) I commented on your blog. Are you going to join the MN bloggers network?

MmeLindor. · 03/10/2011 22:22

Hohum.

Remember my Bucket List? when I said that I wanted to get 1000 posts in one day?

Welll, I posted some screen shots of the DM Amanda Knox fuckup, where they put not just the wrong story, but a completely fabricated story on the website.

500 hits in 30 mins.

it is here

queenmaeve · 03/10/2011 22:23

mme lindor that is brilliant! good for you Smile

FlamingoBingo · 03/10/2011 22:59

Wow! Go you, MmeLindor!

FlamingoBingo · 03/10/2011 22:59

My record is 645 in one day :)

angie80uk · 03/10/2011 23:54

Congratulations DC1980 :) I know how you feel as we too never told anyone about both our children until 3 months into the pregnancy! We were entertaining ourselves by dropping hints around hehe

angie80uk · 04/10/2011 00:00

Way to go Dilly and Mme!

Queen I like your attention to detail! Those hair poking out throughout the top is brilliant!

ScatCatShoo · 04/10/2011 03:45

Mme, congrats. It was so clever of you to catch that story... I am completely and utterly horrified by it. I can't believe they get away with this.

Am going to wander around people's posts round about now... so please don't be panicking if you see a mad woman muttering away on your blogs.

And we finally cleaned out the garden this weekend... and here's what I made with my thousands of green tomatoes (well, maybe only exaggerating slighty :))

Spicy Green Tomato Salsa

MmeLindor. · 04/10/2011 06:47

Thanks, but it was no great feat, no great blog post.

New post about the DM here

PetiteRaleuse · 04/10/2011 07:09

Well done MmeL was just about to google screenshots I can't believe I missed that I thought I was spending more than enough time on the DM website but it appears not!

OP posts:
MmeLindor. · 04/10/2011 07:12

I happened to open the DM at the right time, and on iPad so it was easy to catch the screenshots.

Still cannot believe that they would do that.

PetiteRaleuse · 04/10/2011 07:14

Me neither. I will be ranting soon and will link to yours. Have two possibly three rants coming up today. Must have got out of bed on wrong side :)

Am chuffed that my Diana post got rant of the week award on taste of garlic

OP posts:
MmeLindor. · 04/10/2011 07:15

Oh, well done you. It was a good rant.

purplemom · 04/10/2011 07:32

I've blogged about my crow's feet and double chin. www.purplemum.com/2011/10/about-vanity-and-my-face/

PetiteRaleuse · 04/10/2011 07:39

Thanks MmeL

Here's my take on the Daily Fail's insult to the world of journalism: pint-sized-rants.blogspot.com/2011/10/rant-about-daily-mails-biggest-ever.html

My post about not being a driver

Well done to all of you on the DM stuff. What a crap piece of so called journalism that rag is.
