Anyone still around from the olden days ??

[TheOriginalNutty]

i think I joined when Ds was around 9 months old, so 2003, and then stopped posting around 2013/14 ish maybe, not too sure.

Seems like a life time ago and was just sat here wondering if anyone from then was still around, or if we all buggered off.

I've been here since 2005 when I was angsty about DS starting secondary school, always as a variation of Mumblechum . Pagwatch was indeed lovely, I always used to enjoy Cod too

Yes I remember DaftPunk. There were a lot of very aggressive posters for a while who seem to have either disappeared or mellowed.

I love these threads - I've only been here since 2008, but still remember so many of you "oldies"!

Tante - how are things? are you still in the same country?

I’ve been here since about 2003 but under different names. I was mainly on the fertility forum and remember Anitaanon and anonymouse and also someone called Purplesam.

I remember daftpunk too. I miss Scottishmummy’s posts.

Daftpunk was an utter utter knob. They were the only MNer who has ever made me cry - a post along the lines of "no one wants their DC to sit next to the DC with SN in the classroom, everyone thinks it but they won't say it". Cock.

Isn't scottishmummy still here?

I miss Scottishmummy's posts too!

Oh Bollocks that's horrid

Hi ThumbW
Yep still in Japan...I'll have been here 28 years in July
How's you?

Lequeen started off as Lequeen, until someone pointed out to her that it should be Laqueen, when she changed it.

I think CheerfulYank is still here but doesn't post as much any more.

Pagwatch definitely is still here.

That's a long time, Tante!
Doing ok - just survived a 40 degree day with no aircon (barely) but then there was a 20 degree drop in temp and it's been much nicer the last couple of days! Back up into the 30s again tomorrow though (booo!)

Shit, I hope I haven't upset anyone else posting that awful comment. I'll get it deleted if it does.

It really upset me at the time as my DC wasn't being invited to any of the numerous birthday parties (primary school) and I was sad. They are now in their late teens with about 8 million online friends and good RL friends, in fact they are in the pub with two of them right now

Eek, no air con

Hope it cools down a bit soon

I think I joined 2003. Never namechanged and never deregistered. I’ve just embraced my MN addiction from day 1

I’m not here much but I think I joined in 2001 🙂

@notacooldad do you mean the poster who referred to her DH as ‘manshape’? As I recall it was because her first DH had died and she needed him to have a different nickname. Can’t recall the poster’s name though...

Don't worry, you are absolutely right.
She said some truly awful things.

I read more than I post, love the feminist board. My ds is 21 now and dd is 15, for anyone who remembers me.

Jaded that was demented wasn't it?

WWW I remember you

@TanteRose I’m not sure. But I do remember Demented so it could have been.

Slightlyjaded
That's it... and her name has just come to me. Something like 'Deemented'

At first I thought Manshape was silly but she explained why she used that nickname and said her DP was cool with it , so fair enough!

A bit of a x post going on !!

Ah LeQ, what ever became of her minge waxing career?
Did it take off?
