Where is Wobblyknicks?

[coppertop]

I haven't seen her on here for ages. Has she eloped with HJ or has she been here all along and I'm just losing my marbles?

And when you mention that the only computers around when we were little were the ones the size of a large room.....

ct - you'll get shocked looks just for mentioning that it wasn't standard to get virtual reality with your PC!!

Deffo it will be yours and HJ kids that will be half sisters and brothers to DD

so aunty and uncle to DD children

CBeebies programmes of today will seem as ancient as The Woodentops did to us.

Thanks for reminding me RTKM, that's better then, they can't call their grandad minging, he'll have to be 'distinguished' instead!!!

Looking on the bright side, maybe they'll have invented a cream to get rid of our varicose veins and wrinkles. I also like the idea of a 3D virtual man. Wahey!

Who needs creams, we'll all just live in VR and be 20 year old models who just shag all day

Until we find out that our virtual man isn't really a 20-something male model is really a 90-yr-old pensioner called Wilbur.

And that is why you NEVER come out of VR!!!

No need to remove our false teeth before climbing into our virtal beds then.

or even VIRTUAL!

Nope, there's an army of robots doing all the RL stuff for you while you get on with the serious having fun business. Or you can live in a VR world of being a geriatric where your kids can be guilt tripped into visiting any time you ask, you have bed baths from lots of young mayaan on demand and you still have all your own teeth to eat chocolate with!!

Mind you, after watching the global dimming programme, am convinced we'll all be in the next ice age by then so the reality is we'll be huddled in an underground bunker having to cycle an hour a day to produce energy for lighting etc, eating spam and dreaming of the days when we could watch telly and go on mumsnet.

Noooooooooooo! I could live with the spam and the pedal-power but no mumsnet????

But because none of us will be able to live 'on the top' and we'll all have to be crammed underground together, we'll all be right there with each other anyway, dd will be president of the world by then (i can see it starting already) and I'll persuade her to organise us all by preferred website rather than by anything silly like relatives, where you live, age etc etc.

I shall beg President Mini-Knicks for a bed in the MN section. Then again if you went for a more male site then you'd never be cold at night.

I'll make sure she puts the MN section next to the 'most gorgeous men of all time' section and the eBay section, to keep all MN'ers happy!!

Anyway, better get off to bed....and dream of the day when VR means I can sleep and mumsnet at the same time!!!

'Night!
