The Covid threads have been as batshit as you might imagine (they even have their own topic). At the start of the first lockdown it all got too bonkers so I left it alone for a good few months.

I was a long time lurker from the bygone era of time many years ago.. some of the mumsnet names mentioned on here have given me a huge blast from the past! Feel like also mentioning lottiejenkins and stewiegriffinsmom

PAFMO · 27/03/2022 22:08

Have been here since 2004.
Found MN a bit like the weird twins in the Shining tbh. On the left the in-jokes and pile-ins and we'll hellair mwah mwah-ing. On the right truly, marvellously, geniusly funny threads (not the practical joke things, I don't like those, but the brilliantly timed comic posts) that would make your day.

Now it's all just a bit "you looking at? come over here and say that you slaaaaaaag and I'll have you". Confused

A580Hojas · 27/03/2022 22:08

What day of teh week do you wash your sheets?

exLtEveDallas · 27/03/2022 22:08

Pie and Bovril, now there’s a blast from the past. How are your boobs these days @Sparklingbrook GrinGrin

BIWI · 27/03/2022 22:08

... oh, except we aren't allowed to do that because Royalty

Sparklingbrook · 27/03/2022 22:08

My nest is half empty but still not confident enough that's a permanent arrangement so his room is untouched as yet.

PacificState · 27/03/2022 22:08

NC and staying mysterious but waving anyway. (First thing I thought of was potty training and your insistence that YOU MUST NOT WAVER)

Maggiesgirl · 27/03/2022 22:08

Been here since 2004. Fuck that's a long time.
