AIBU to wonder if there are any supportive and kind MNers?

[verbalreasoning]

I had high hopes when I joined MN that I would find a community of helpful, supportive, kind and caring people ... Mums in other words!

So far I have found a few witty and brilliant characters but mostly every thread I've lurked/posted on has been populated by violently opinionated and judgemental people.

Am I on the wrong threads or is the anonimity of MN the root of the problem. Where are all the nice mumsy types hiding? Are they just lurking so they don't get flamed?

You can call me what you like lovename

You know us now, lovename. there's no going back.

And that goes for you too, Gaby. Oh yes.

I grew up on Rathbones bread, but think that may be a Liverpool thing. Waitrose own brand middle class, surely, and yy to artisan.

I wondered what type of chocolate shoes are they me thinks big think chunky ones like cloggs - I seen someone wearing these in Ediburgh the other day!

Oh, I forgot - hang on...

Ta dah!

Ohhhh! But you do know if you continue to eat carbs you cant continue to shop at boden (ive never got the whole boden thing)

The Roberts bread factory is the best building in the world. Simply because it always makes me smile ....always!

Beer, that sounds like Celebrity Death Match. Or something.

no no no

have a wonderful image of a gully and a flabber squaring up against each other

love the new name hab

Is that middle class then port

I'd never heard of boden until coming on MN. Still don't own a single Boden item, unless you count a couple of things for dd off ebay.

Rehab

have name

beri OMW PMSL v v good

Thank lovename, Gibbon - it was her inspiration.

Does that mean everyone will refuse to come to me, though, eh?

Boden? Boden?! Never even heard of it until I joined Mumsnet
Haven't even bought anything seen anything from there for that matter!
Is it a bit posh like? Cos that'd explain why I haven't bought anything from there before lol

Yes. Beri not quite as good. One hit wonder maybe?

Me bitter? Noooooooo

rehab same here I be controversial and it all looks samey and a bit bland. Now come on gibbon you could be untiethegibbon

lovename - never tasted the bread tbh so no idea - but the factory is truly fab...you can like, see the bread cooking and it has conveyor belts and everything and big rotating bread stacks....all from the dual carriageway.

So now I'm into bondage? [deadpan]

they were stilletos - made from chocolate.....

I think its supposed to be a bit posh folk seem to get snooty bout it gaby - and what food do you bring?
