I think we should have an MN village show

What should the categories be?

Clearly we will need:

  • most unusual object covered in glitter
  • sculpture entirely from Waitrose recycling
  • best artisan scotch egg (ahem)

What else? And what will you be entering?

Feel free to nominate yourself as a judge but we will need to see your credentials...

Before we have the finale - let's all relax in one of those absolutely vile hot tubs of bacteria that all the chav gardens have with a competition to see how many neighbours kids have been dumped on us !!!

anotherneutralname · 19/03/2022 10:45

I'm concerned we haven't come up with a category including zoflora yet.

Hot tubs + zoflora .

Two birds one stone. Yadda yadda.

We need a shed and an elderly Korean lady for extra cosines and warmheartedness! Smile

(Last time I mentioned this on a thread someone went batshit about ‘racism’ Hmm )

And a fucktonne of bunting

Wouldn’t be a fête without it! Does anyone remember ‘cunt bunting’? Thread was around when I joined and in my memory connected with the PTA, lemon drizzle cake and a poster called MarmaladeTwatkins? In fact I may have joined as a result of that thread!

Piggy666 · 19/03/2022 13:18

I saw Jenny Eclair a few years ago and she had 'cunting bunting'

Masivest surely

Guess the Song and Guess the Novel - both from really tiny clues that the OP might not have remembered properly anyway.

Piggy666 · 19/03/2022 14:57

@Hoppinggreen indeed! Lol

Nnique · 19/03/2022 15:38

Guess the riddle competition?

Nnique · 19/03/2022 15:38

Super soaker event? Or was it the other brand? I can never remember...

Nnique · 19/03/2022 15:40

Badger barbecue, anyone?

Nnique · 19/03/2022 15:41

Hope I’m not just repeating everyone else’s...

Should’ve RTFT!

Parpophone · 19/03/2022 15:51

Surely the most important question is who is going to open the show?

I believe that Boswell is free.

Nnique · 19/03/2022 15:54

Or Balonz?

Oh my god , that thread made my week ! 🤣
Nnique · 19/03/2022 19:53

Ugh I definitely wrote ‘cosiness’ and it decided to ‘correct’ it!

[quote ImWearingReallyJudgyPants]@Pyri

MN was genuinely funnier. I've been here for 20 years. The difference now is that there are so many people just waiting to be offended, and far more 'thread police' types. It was a bear pit and the 'cool girls' could be annoying because they were so quichey, but it was genuinely funny. When I looked at the cake cunt thread, I thought it was a little sign that MN hadn't changed - then saw it was an old thread. And even by 2013, things had changed. Won't derail any further, though.[/quote]

Can we please have a stall offering free tarot reading, where the person doing the readings has to guess who it's for Grin

disconnected1 · 19/03/2022 21:15

Can we please also invite the Daily Mail ?????

NinaDefoe · 19/03/2022 21:20

Grin maybe we could get them to sponsor the prizes but then not let them in?
