I am quite new and keep seeing references to the mumsnet "heavies" on other threads. Am intrigued. Who are these people please?
"Heavy" because of strong opinions? Especially articulate posters? Nasty?
Or dos it refer to people officially involved with the actual running of musnet?
Please enlighten. I'd love to know who they are and why so called.

I'm making myself laugh, definitely a sign of mental not-wellness, fark Jameela was right! Now to lose weight and take the long road back to glorious sanity and no doubt blissful happiness which will of course go hand in hand with being thin. Can't wait

AnyFuleKno · 31/10/2010 01:00

I love those people but they are the royalty. I know it, you know it, we all know it

Oh, how did I miss this thread? It's brilliant. Glad to see a further few thousand of Jameela's synapses have fried in paroxyms of verbiage ...
I've found out I'm now a size 18 (last time I looked, I was a 10, but that was some years back). Does this make me a heavy? And horizontally-challenged?

Please say yes [hgrin]

Totally, AF. If the lunges don't use up your calories, brushing all the crumbs under the sofa up will :)
