Bunglie's Gerbil Cage

As Bunglie's Box is getting so big and turned a little sour, I thought somewhere smaller and more bijou would suit. We can still suspend it above Mumsnet Towers if you like

Thank you WWB and KM....Hic! nice er hmmm water!

How are you two skinny birds then eh?

WigWamBam · 25/11/2004 11:57

So, what are your suggestions for how KM and I tame our 46Gs then? We've got you kitted out with your two acorn cups and piece of dental floss, but what are we going to use?

Sorry WWB no batteries for you...they are mine...

Buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Have you thought about coconut shells and heavy duty duck tape?

KangaMummy · 25/11/2004 11:59

Frustrated with this connection prob

Keep being disconnected so if I disappear it is not because I don't want to play

It is because of this stupid TISCALI connection

So I still love you but may keep disappearing.

It works in evening and weekend but during day it will not work

WigWamBam · 25/11/2004 12:00

Coconut shells might make good nipple shields but not much else . Couple of mixing bowls might be more the ticket ...

Duck tape is good, though, you'd be surprised what you can do with duck tape ...

industrial strength tape

Bunglie · 25/11/2004 12:02

AWE! KM I am with Tiscali -broadband, no probs!

'Nipple sheilds' that big?

Seriously where do you get a 46G bra...not from M&S

WigWamBam · 25/11/2004 12:06

Don't get us started on shopping again - finding big clothes, and particularly bras, is a bit like finding hens teeth.

It was even worse when I was breastfeeding and went up to 48K .

Looking for a "jaw dropping" icon, bunglie

Bunglie · 25/11/2004 12:08

Oh no! I have to give a lesson....back at 1pm

Bunglie · 25/11/2004 12:10

48 what?

That must have been awful....

Think of some jokes for when I have finished in about 45 minutes.....not shopping....

WigWamBam · 25/11/2004 12:11

K

OP posts:
Bunglie · 25/11/2004 13:35

You said K, not a slip of the fingers.....ooooh! I hope that your dh/dp (not sure which you have, but assume you must have one due to dd!) appreciates them in all their G for glory!
Oh and 'K' for Krikey...do I get a spellchecker?

WigWamBam · 25/11/2004 15:05

Maybe she was an immaculate conception, Bunglie .

No, dh did have something to do with it ... somewhere along the line .

OP posts:
Bunglie · 25/11/2004 15:50

Oh...that is reassurring to know, that she was not the second immaculate conception in history.....so you are no longer 'virgo intactica' Personally I prefer Battlestar Galactica....But it is not as good as PS in Next Gen, Star Trek.....talking of which I am overdue....I might have to miss the first episode and watch the 5pm one as I still have lots of work to do.

Just a thought...who was MG last night...WK or Secur...perhaps Bonkerz...or was it you

God! I just thought if when you were pg we could have painted a face on each boob and you would have had two Patrick Stewarts attatched to you Bet you're glad I thought of that!?

Off to do a bit of work...uhg! back later....bye

Oh and think of a name for me please....NOW!

WigWamBam · 25/11/2004 16:14

You are turning my boobs into a figure of fun, and I can assure you that they are not funny. Not very funny, anyway .

A new name for Bunglie, a new name for Bunglie ...

The obvious one is already in use, Davros would have been perfect .

Fudge, because it's another word for Bungle;
Blaine or Tupperware, because you live in a clear plastic box;
Rabbit or Octopus - I shouldn't have to explain why ;
Piper, Chanter, Drone, Bellows or Reed (bagpipes)
Dalek (they run around on wheels, scaring people and not wearing shoes too)
Socrates (I couldn't think of anything to do with socks)

Tell us some things you like/dislike/do, that might help

OP posts:
WigWamBam · 25/11/2004 16:26

Acorn, because if you can turn my boobs into a figure of fun, I can do the same (and no-one else need ever know );
Picard or Stargazer, for obvious reasons;
Mirfield, because it was where PS was born and I quite like the sound of the name

Oh, think, think ... feeling thick today, can't think of anything that sounds right ...

OP posts:
KangaMummy · 25/11/2004 16:26

I like tuperware as other non-insaniacs would be v confused

KangaMummy · 25/11/2004 16:27

WWB acorn it should be

brill WWB

WigWamBam · 25/11/2004 16:29

Come on, km, help me - this is sooooo hard and I'm running out of ideas!

OP posts:
KangaMummy · 25/11/2004 16:33

I think acorn/tuperware is brill

going to do DS tea, back soon

WigWamBam · 26/11/2004 10:30

Bunglie? Are you going to come in and try some of your new names on?

Or do you hate them all and will sulk until we think of some more?

OP posts:
Bunglie · 26/11/2004 13:39

I am shocked...How did you know that my students call me Davros? They think I do not know and if I let on I am afraid that they will think of something worse!

Well done...I quite like Acorn

Because out of acorns grow mighty oaks, and although I do not feel like an oak yet, maybe one day I will.

What do you lot think...Acorn is my favourite....so far!

Do I seem like an Acorn...do I feel like an Acorn....Hmmmm 'Yes' it is a distinct possibility.

Are you going to change your name to pumpkin....just joking you are a WWB and I shall always think of you as one. The problem is that I need to change my name as it has appeared on another site and people think it is me and I can not afford for people to confuse what this person is posting on this other site with me....I know that does not make much sense as I like being a Bunglie

WigWamBam · 26/11/2004 13:44

We like you being Bunglie too (and I will always think of you as Bunglie, even if we can't call you that).

I like Acorn - growing into a strong oak is a lovely metaphor as well (although we'll all know the real reason for the name, of course ).

Why don't you try it on for size, see how it feels?

OP posts:
WigWamBam · 26/11/2004 13:44

And no, I don't think I shall be changing my name to pumpkin, thanks ...
