The Mumsnet Assembly

[Goldenbug]

The hard bit would be to find a hall with a nice cold hard floor for us all to sit cross legged on. Mods would go down the sides to keep an eye on us, and Justine would lead it at the front.

The religious bit (though half of of would be allowed to sit it out) would be about how if Jesus was alive he would report trolls rather than engage.

Some hymns? Kum ba yah seems a bit wet for Mumsnet...

Fight the good fight?

Sisters are doing it for themselves? Maybe with an organ to make it a bit more assembly like.

Disclaimer
I don’t mean that sisters are doing it for themselves with an organ.

I’m the oldest here, so I get to sit on the bench at the back and look down on the peons

Oooh binary - how old are you? I'm wondering if I get to join you on the benches.

We'd have to say 'Good Morning Mumsnet Justine. Good Morning Everybody' at the start.

I always liked singing The Ink Is Black The Page is White

Sing Hosanna, as The Women's Institute have already collared Jerusalem.

I can play all the old classic hymns on a dodgy piano in the corner.

I think on the whole, Mumsnet is probably more incontinent than your average primary school assembly, so which mod gets to hold the roll of tissues and look out for suspicious wiggling?

It must be nearly time for the special Harvest Festival assembly - what should we bring in our baskets (made out of shoeboxes in the last Craft lesson)?

ikboo i'm actually going to be 11 in July...

Oh wow that IS old! Can I do your pigtails during assembly? I've got a quarter of pear drops.

You get to wear the Birthday Badge the whole day.

Why would it be in a hall? Surely it would be in some nice outdoor space , with catering from a well-known partnership?

@ForalltheSaints - OP means assembly like you used to have at school. Not a grown up meeting

ikboo yes, but if we get in trouble you have to take all the blame. Miss says if I'm good, i MIGHT be able to change the hymn slides!!!!

Damn... I'm 12 so need to find the secondary school version. At least it probably won't have any religious bits.

binary - I shall be very careful. I can't do detention as I've got recorder practice.

There would be a percussion group playing to accompany some of the hymns, and enthusiastic rhythmic clapping from everyone else, the naughty ones would hand jive.

At the end of term assembly, plates of Rocky Road or brownies would be passed around by the monitors.

Maybe we could have a recorder recital made up entirely of those 4 foot long ones that only the coolest people played?

I'm only 5ft tall!

I have been good all week so i get to do the overhead projector with the clear plastic sheets with the lyrics to our song.
