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.

Hello! Can I join this thread please? I'm in the network, which is inspiring me to blog a little more frequently - here's this week's post about why I'm actually cancelling three job interviews I had lined up: mummyneedscoffee.blogspot.com/2011/10/mummy-needsan-epiphany.html

Am off to bed for a snooze, as I had a disturbed night so will read your posts later. Here is mine for the day, Farewell Steve Jobs

I actually had a post about how to open an account in a foreign iTunes store, but thought it would be a bit weird to post it today.

Trills · 06/10/2011 13:40

Ooh, hate mail :)

And I get fan mail (sort of) - chillies are great, I always want my plants to look nice and be useful.

ScaredTEECat · 06/10/2011 13:56

My short little tribute to Steve Jobs

GMTA mmel!

Hello Smile

I'm new here. I'm new to blogging full stop so if I'm in need of dire improvement, do tell Grin

This is my blog zoomzoomphoto-a-digital-diary.blogspot.com/

It's about parenting and photography. Nervous now....

Tomisinathewitchescat · 06/10/2011 15:59

TheGrassIsJewelled · 06/10/2011 16:31

New blog post up, of interest to pregnant ladeez and their companions, or parents of babies/toddlers. It's all about slings.

stitchthis · 06/10/2011 16:40

a second bite of the Apple from me. Must learn that humour isn't always appropriate. Blush

PetiteRaleuse · 06/10/2011 16:49

Was hoping for more hate mail but didn't get any. Oh well. Does anyone know that when you see people arriving on your blog from a tiny url or a bit thingy if there is anyway of finding out where that link was published? Someone RT'd the hate mail thing and I got a lot of people from that (and even a couple of emails offering help tracking down the irate journo) but another link was posted and I can't work out where. Anyone know?

Have put blog post up about the coming miscarriage campaign here

Have included a blog hop link thing, so you can link your blogs now and then again on Monday on the new post.

MmeLindor. · 06/10/2011 17:06

Will be back later to catch up, but just posted on your blog, Petite. Hate mail, eh? Good for you.

Amodmillymum · 06/10/2011 17:44

RIP Steve Jobs

I stole that i-sad from you Mme Lindor because i-loved it. I hope you don't mind it was i-nspired. :)

MmeLindor. · 06/10/2011 17:53

No worries, I stole iSad from Neil Diamond.

Think we are all a bit iSad today.

And iNspired by his Stanford speech.

PetiteRaleuse · 06/10/2011 18:41

Well it was just a couple of emails - and I have to admit I did post links to my blog in particularly provocative places (ie the Press Gazette) so yes, I did get what was coming... and if I could have asked for one thing from my blog, it is that it would have annoyed a DM supporter or journalist. Yay. I can die happy :)

mme just saw your viral posts. Well written!

Kittylenz · 06/10/2011 19:42

Here's the latest from my blog ...And PND Makes Three. Think it's a timely post given how much PND has been in the news lately. Thanks again for your support, everyone!

Great to be here, see you later.

Hey all, no new post but the museum who commissioned the artwork I yarn bombed commented about it on twitter and their web page in the bottom left corner here.

CoffeeMummy · 06/10/2011 20:10

I have comments - this is a first for me! Being in the Network is clearly the way forward Smile! Thanks you guys.

Just to clarify and re-post the post - this is hecklephone - I've just namechanged because I think this new name ties in much better with my blog and twitter account too.

So - here is the epiphany I blogged about earlier. No more hecklephone, it's CoffeeMummy from now on!

MmeLindor. · 06/10/2011 20:43

Coffeemummy
good idea to link MN/Twitter/blog name.

Dilly

Lavender
