I'll wear a sister wives dress and matching sister wife boots.

Food, nothing upf of course. Chopped up organic everything, but no bananas. They aren't MN acceptable.

RomainingCalm · 10/06/2025 13:27

I'll be a bit retro and bring some cutted up pear and a couple of fat balls.

Not sure what to wear yet, I'm sure I have a MN scarf in the cupboard somewhere...

Maybe our opening line should be to all ask complete strangers how old they think we look - that always goes well! 😂

ohpuzzle · 10/06/2025 13:27

I will bring my 92 year old mum and her walking fame we will both be dressed as the blues brothers.
A bottle of cherry some ham roles and an LP of elivs.

You aint seen dancing till you see my 92 year mum spinning with a walking frame😂.

screwyou · 10/06/2025 13:28

What about games we could play a few?

screwyou · 10/06/2025 13:29

I think it should be a BBQ and I will bring the chicken drumsticks and sausages.

FurForksSake · 10/06/2025 13:34

Who’s bringing the penis beakers?

manicpixieschemegirl · 10/06/2025 13:38

I’ll not bother bringing food as the Mumsnet Chicken and Massive Salad ™️ are covered - only gluttons would want anything more!

I’ll swamp myself in a monstrosity from Klements, paired with some sensible Clarks shoes to really set it off.

BeMintFatball · 10/06/2025 13:40

I will bring champagne as we got an unreasonable amount at DH 60th and need the space.

I will wear no makeup as I can’t see my face without glasses. I will also wear trousers that hide my fuck off slogan socks which are my daily act of rebellion

SociableAtWork · 10/06/2025 13:54

I’m not coming because my mum’s not invited. I’m honestly so offended, even though she doesn’t want to come anyway.
<flounces>

<stomps back>
It’s not fair because my SIL is invited but her son isn’t so they’re going to gatecrash once it’s in full swing and they fancy a dance but my mum doesn’t want to do that.

ErrolTheDragon · 10/06/2025 14:08

I’ll bring Biscuit and wear my best judgy pants

DuckieDodgyHedgyPiggy · 10/06/2025 14:14

Are DPs invited? If they are, I'm not coming. I'll bring organic hummus from Waitrose and I'll wear the Nepalese top with the elephant on that I bought at a fete at the weekend in a moment of madness. It's not meant to be ironed, honestly it's supposed to look like that.

NotDarkGothicMama · 10/06/2025 14:27

I will not see you there, for I have declined the invitation ("no" is a complete sentence) and will be spending the evening in my pyjamas, reading MN on the sofa and playing with my cats.

AdaColeman · 10/06/2025 14:42

Isn't anyone bringing curry in a slow cooker?

Planesmistakenforstars · 10/06/2025 15:09

I will bring an elderly Korean lady to sit in your garden. I'll wear bum scrunch leggings, but haven't decided on a top.

MiddleAgedDread · 10/06/2025 15:11

A massive salad, black jeans and a "nice top".
Will also bring air freshener in case I need to poo in your bathroom.
Is it ok to tie my horse to your downpipe?

WillimNot · 10/06/2025 15:12

Well I'm a pub Landlady with a alcohol license so happy to run the bar

Hoppinggreen · 10/06/2025 15:12

I will be wearing Toast
As in the bread stuff as I will look much better in that than any dun coloured over priced hessian.
I will bring Hummus and olives, if I can wrestle them off a toddler who eats nothing but ( I don't actually have a toddler any more and when I did they sure as hell wouldn't eat Hummus and olives)

FurForksSake · 10/06/2025 15:16

I’ll dish up, women get half the portion size of the men. And no you can’t go and sneak off for a takeaway.

lunaswand · 10/06/2025 15:17

I will wear a wedding guest dress in white & bring white wine & junk food in a child's lunchbox

Gundogday · 10/06/2025 15:25

I’ll be wearing the Sainsbury marmite dress from a couple of years back (which I actually do have hanging in my wardrobe).

EmotionalSupportBlanket · 10/06/2025 15:31

I'm bringing extra cheesy scones (to rhyme with gone), warm from the oven with loads of melting, salted butter, because that's what I really want to eat at the moment.

I'll be wearing a striped t-shirt and jeans (the jeans will turn out to be a mistake because of the number of scones that I'll eat). My hair will be in a messy pony/bun type 'do because I'm a scruff.

Twoshoesnewshoes · 10/06/2025 15:37

I’ll bring lots of protein and no peanut butter cos it’s just ridiculous.
ill wear a midi dress with pockets
can I have a diagram of where to park please?

LuxuryWoman2020 · 10/06/2025 15:49

I'll bring one square of good dark chocolate because that's plenty.

I'll bring enough wine for a thimbleful each because anything else would be irresponsible in case we need to drive to the hospital.

I'll be wearing something fabulous, not from Shein obvs

SociableAtWork · 10/06/2025 18:42

On second thoughts I might want to come.

Is it child free? If it is, my DH will sit in your bedroom and look after my DC; I’ll just need to pop in and feed them.

And you’ll all need to keep the noise down (DC won’t sleep if you’re noisy) Oh, and can we not swear or get drunk - it makes DH uncomfortable.

Exciting! Should be fun.
