I met a mumsnetter in Spain... How did I recognise her? (Just for fun, but I did meet one of us in the wild and there was a recognising factor).

Was she literally shaking with anger?

She mentioned that she boil washes her sheets and towels daily and anything less is 'grim'. She also spoke about the importance of having pears cutted up.

She was internationally on the run from a particularly vicious crow?

Did she snap and fart?

awaynboilyurheid · 12/05/2026 01:34

Was she going to a wedding but was worried and asking everyone if her perfectly acceptable floral dress had too much white on it, like everyone would mistake her for the bride and force her down the aisle ?

was she wearing this?

Much more likely to have been this, but neither start with b.

She was wearing a ... beanie? Bustier? Bobble hat? Beret? Baseball cap? Bib? Burka? Bow tie? Barbour oilskin? Bodysuit? Bandana? Burburry trenchcoat? Balaclava? Ballgown? Bomber jacket? Bowler hat? Bikini? Bum Bag? Bolero?

Did her pervy DH grope her boob from behind while she helped herself to a massive salad from the buffet, and when you called him out on it she tilted her head, gave a tinkly laugh and said "Gently, NAMALT, iyswim?"
