to wonder if an oldie is still around that I don't really know but adored her all the same?!

I came on mumsnet many, many moons ago and there will always be one member of the forum that I remember the most because she was just so funny and likeable and her name was Cod. I remember that she came out with the most bizarre things sometimes and couldn't spell very well (I wonder if she was dyslexic?). Does anyone know what happened to her?

it wasn't pretty, there was a stalker involved, there was decamping to another forum and occasionally she is about but I don't know who she is or what her names are

Gooseberrybushes · 31/05/2011 23:28

i think she had rather an awful time of it tbh

K999 · 31/05/2011 23:29

Ooh, I remember Cod too. She was hilarious. Smile

BecauseImWorthIt · 31/05/2011 23:29

She's still here, although keeps a somewhat lower profile, because of her stalking problem.

She isn't dyslexic, just can't type very well!

If you hang around enough (try Style & Beauty) you'll probably spot her eventually.

Mamaz0n · 31/05/2011 23:31

She is alive and well and will post occasionally.

certainly not at all Dyslexic and able to type and post very well indeed, she just couldn't be bothered.

She changes her name regularly due to some rather pathetic person outing her RL identity all over the boards. but she is still here every now and then

i'm so glad she is still around :) but so embarassed I thought she was dyslexic Blush sounds like she had a horrible experience.

Cod was about when I used the boards moons ago. Good to hear she's still around.

Cocoflower · 31/05/2011 23:54

Gosh I have always wondered who Cod was....

I often search archives for particular subjects and there has been so many times people mention Cod on loads of threads and how much they miss her (before my time)

Why was she so beloved and adored?

NulliusInVerba · 31/05/2011 23:56

Talking of which - where is Hecate?

Ive not seen her on any threads for a bit. Maybe ive just missed her and been on different boards?

She was just brilliant cocoflower, absolutely off her trolley! She never got drawn into the bitchy stuff, if people were being unkind, she never was but she definately spoke her mind! Also, a few people on here thought they were something special but she never did, she was very much down to earth, normal (or not normal as the case may be!!!). She was totally and utterly gone in the head! I've never laughed at another member so much on a forum as I did at cod. She was the best! Hail cod!

Cod is around in various guises - often when a post makes you do a double take you go back and realise it's her.

Ditto with a bizarre/funny thread title.

I think I joined around the time she was being stalked, so don't have much memory of the 'old' days, but I know she can be funny and wicked. Seems to have improved the typing skills as well...

Cocoflower · 01/06/2011 00:10

Thank you littleoscarmama

I am very intruigued now, guess I missed out!

BecauseImWorthIt · 01/06/2011 08:30

Hecate is still here, she has just name changed (although if you read it carefully you can tell it's still her!)

Buda · 01/06/2011 08:40

cod is def still around on and off. She is on Twitter a lot more though. Changes her name regularly. Still speaks her mind. Still very funny.

Is loved by some and hated by others.

Praline · 01/06/2011 08:43

She is brilliant fun.

deaconblue · 01/06/2011 08:50

lol she's not vaguely dyslexic, just a crap typer. She's very much around. (she's my RL friend :) )

JaneyLloydFoxe · 01/06/2011 08:51

She is great fun - can normally tell when a thread title is hers, she has a knack for choosing very funny subjects to talk about.

is here quite a lot but not as much as she used to be.

skinmysunshine · 01/06/2011 09:28

Look out for threads about people with bad style choices - wearing crocs or linen pants. She also love make up.

5318008 · 01/06/2011 09:33

and before the cod-bashing starts can I say she can be v v kind

and yy still around, name changes regularly

here is one of her funny threads

GetOrf · 01/06/2011 09:35

She is very kind, as well as being funny.
I have never understood the vitriol about her.

BalloonSlayer · 01/06/2011 09:39

I was overjoyed to see riv en yesterday!

ShowOfHands · 01/06/2011 09:43

I can remember the day I saw a photo of her for the first time.

She was bloody normal.

She loves these sorts of threads btw. She'll be here in a minute to tell you to get a grip. She's alright. No messiah though.

EvenLessNarkyPuffin · 01/06/2011 09:48

Wherever there are women wearing cut off linen trousers, wherever there are women who wear the same jewellery every day, wherever there are women who wear jeans that finish half an inch above theit shoes for no obvious reason, there ye shall find her.

EvenLessNarkyPuffin · 01/06/2011 09:48

Megatron · 01/06/2011 09:52

I like the sound of her. Grin
