A hoodie saying "sorry I'm late I didn't want to come" 🤣

MrsMoastyToasty · 10/06/2025 22:17

I will wear a sequin and tulle flower girl's dress, a tiara, some plastic jewelry, glittery nail varnish and a smear of lipstick from my DMs dressing table. My signature fragrance will be made from rose petals collected from the garden and steeped in tap water.
I will give the hostess a home made card and a gift that I secretly want for myself.

Will there be pass the parcel and cake?
Yes, there's a 5 year old trying to get out...

I'll bring a giant Connie the caterpillar cake for those of us with a sweet tooth....or maybe two if there's a fair few of us? And wear something glitz and glam for the special occasion.

LimeShaker · 10/06/2025 23:21

I’ll bring elderflower cordial and hope someone asks me why I am not drinking so I can say ‘Did you mean to be so rude?’ and give them the Paddington Hard Stare…I’ll be wearing black cigarette trousers and a silk cami of course

bluejelly · 10/06/2025 23:39

I’ll be wearing a t-shirt that says ‘no is a complete answer’.

TheTwoLeggedGrooveMachine · 10/06/2025 23:58

Oh I knew there was one more thing! Lemon drizzle cake!

RomainingCalm · 11/06/2025 00:08

Has anyone signed up to bring the super soakers yet?

ArtemisiaTheArtist · 11/06/2025 00:13

I’ll bring an Indian snack pack and a case of Brixton lager.

I’ll wear my Lucy & Yak brown cotton trousers with my Van Gogg Sunflowers t-shirt. I’m very into clodhoppers at the moment so I will wear my brown/green walking boots and thick socks.

Kleptronic · 11/06/2025 00:29

I remember when it was all fields round here, and we used to have a Drunk Thread on a Friday night.

I'll be bringing bacon, bacon and some more bacon. And vodka.

MagpieCastle · 11/06/2025 00:34

Will we need to start the party early afternoon? This being MN none of us will answer the door after sunset so guests will be left waiting on the doorstep in their party finery. Anyway, we wouldn't want to get darked on.

shellyleppard · 11/06/2025 07:17

@MyFavouriteSpoon the Mumsnet chicken is really really really really really really really legendary 🤣

Davros · 11/06/2025 08:38

@Kleptronic me too! I’d forgotten the Friday drunk thread

ChippySauce · 11/06/2025 08:44

I’m bringing the Emergency Trifle.

I’ll wear a string of pearls to clutch.

CrushingOnRubies · 11/06/2025 15:28

Will bring Pom bears Bear is the mumsnet scarf still a thing?

hagchic · 11/06/2025 16:21

I am bringing Tunnocks teacakes and wearing immodest clothing - bum scrunch leggings and a crop top, which will be all the more scandalous because I definitely do not have a size 6 body.

NoLongerATeacher · 11/06/2025 17:11

I’m bringing my 2 golden retrievers - they won’t be on their leads and will want to sit on the sofas
sorry in advance for the hairs on the black cigarette trousers
you can all say what a wonderful dog owner I am 😂
They will also happily lick the dishes before they go in the dishwasher ( apologies if your DIL is there)

JackJarvisEsq · 11/06/2025 17:14

Icedcaramelfrappe · 11/06/2025 17:18

I will wear my mumsnet scarf, it will need a good wash as it's been in the wardrobe for at least 10 years

I'll bring a note from the neighbours moaning about all you CFers blocking their driveways

pictoosh · 11/06/2025 17:20
