DP is fascinated by my fascination with MN and is always asking me what is going on in the world of MN. He, however does occasionally go on Arsenal forums and quite frankly couldn't give a toss what occurs on them!

I have also noticed other posters mentioning what their DPs have said after they have evidently discussed a thread with them.

Do you think the boys are feeling a bit left out? Wink

Oh I don't know. I totally identified with the poster who got embroiled in a silly argument on a recent thread who said that her DH had gone to bed shaking his head in disgust Blush

But then DH is now pretty quick to suggest asking Mumsnet when we need to know something so swings and roundabouts really.

It's the reading it over my shoulder that gets to me Grin

I often read threads out to DP. It is often better than the telly.

i am a man

my girlfriend and mother of our child couldn't give a shit about MumNet.
She prefers the John Lewis website.

All the abreviations get on my tits though.

My dp is such a geek and before we buy ANYTHING he has to make sure it's the best, so now we always just buy the mumsnet best according to the awards/reviews!
