[newwave]

I have read a few topics on here over the last week after being shown this site by a friend.

One thing I have noticed that there is a lot of posters having problems with:

Neighbours
In Laws
Cats
Parking
Schools
etc etc

and come on here to talk about it/let off steam BUT not deal with the issue for fear of "upsetting" someone.

As long as your in the right give them a "talking" to, dont be a doormat or you will always get walked on.

I am back, briefly and had a new idea.

Thanks to our new found friend, Newwave Mumsnet is no more. We will be called from here on out....... ........Mumsmat

I thankyaw!

brilliant

Mumsmat.

By doormats, for doormats.

Indeedy!

Those boots are made for walking
That's just what you'll see
Any old time you want
Those boots will walk all over me!

Actually you can try but I will trip you up! The hall carpet that turned......

AIBU to use next door's cat as a doormat?

And this is what gives mumsnet a bad name, I normally post on the property/DIY section and now I'm glad I do - none of this bitchiness on there!

86...have you got odd socks on ?

you lot are funny!

NEWWAVE......your op says 'as long as your in the right give them a talking to....etc'

well thats why we mull it over here!! to see if we are 'in the right' or being unreasonable!!

before unleashing our anger on those who deserve it!

there is nothing funny about homicidal doormats !

LeQueen - 'Please do wipe, we take any tripe'?

Weirdly and quite genuinely, we've just got a new cat and he likes to sharpen his claws on the doormat, and our neighbour's complained about him shitting in their garden. And we've just moved here and realise all the parents of local school park in our road so there's no parking for us at end of t'day.

I have no in law problems, sadly, or that would have been the full whammy.

I am having so many words tomorrow it's untrue. Am off to rest my vocal chords.

you omitted arse sex/mil/nice ham as perennial mn dilemmas

I wont go into details about my dog and the doormats. Suffice to say we just dont have them anymore.

I had a cat who was in love with our feather duster. That was sweet (well, when I say love you know what I mean).

Still pmsl at the idea of your average Mumsnutter being a doormat.
