Come hither all those who haven't found their place on mumsnet, have scrapped in Aibu or crossed words in chat. The buddy bench shalt not judge.

The buddy bench will hand out wine and cakes, it will join you on your scoffathons getting pissed

All those who sit on the bench, will have their sins erased and be given a warm welcome and cheerful chat from CheerfulYank, gomummy, tiredmum, Elmo, valiumredhead and far, far too many more to mention.

Welcome to the buddy bench, we look forward to meeting you all Smile

Oh and don't forget, last one to leave polishes bench and locks up!

Hello :)

I have a cracking headache, had it all day... roll on bedtime.

How's everyone else?

gomummygo · 11/10/2011 19:31

Sorry to hear that, Valium, they are miserable things. Hope you can get some rest tonight and wake up without it!

Fab weekend here.

Oh, and I am thankful for my tiny-but-much-loved family.

And that I live in a peaceful country (been watching CNN, always scary).

And you lovely lot! :)

FearfulYank · 12/10/2011 01:42

Hope you feel better Valium , I get bad headaches too and they're so terrible. :(

valiumredhead · 12/10/2011 12:05

RedRumMum · 12/10/2011 17:26

I'm hiding out here for a while before i lose my rag with someone on another thread .

deadtiredmum - yummmmmmm i love Chinese food . We will be having Chinese takeaway tomorrow night Smile

TiredMUMMYno1 · 12/10/2011 17:30

What thread was it?

RedRumMum · 12/10/2011 17:34

It's a thread i should have avoided tbh - it's about bullying and it's too close to home for me .
it's in "primary ed " section .

IdjustassoonkissaWookiee · 12/10/2011 17:38

My Halloween name last year was bloodandsnakesplease. Grin

RedRumMum · 12/10/2011 17:44

I remember that name wookiee Smile

I've just been told "no need to be snippy" Blush my first ever telling off on here Blush

TiredMUMMYno1 · 12/10/2011 17:45

Aw redrummum dont let it get to you

Will you use that name again wookiee, or you could be IdjustassoonkissaZombiee Grin

valiumredhead · 12/10/2011 18:08

You've done well red if that's the first telling off you have had! Grin

Don't let it worry you, I can't imagine that you were snippy at all xxx

RedRumMum · 12/10/2011 18:15

I'm here 3 years now so it had to happen at some stage i guess Blush

I think i was actually being a bit snippy tbh Blush but it felt like the op was trying to play his ds's behaviour down a wee bit Sad .

Aww tiredmum thanks for sticking up for me on that thread x i shouldn't have posted on it at all tbh . I will avoid threads like that in future .

FearfulYank · 12/10/2011 18:35

RedRumMum · 12/10/2011 18:41

No need fearfulyank (love the name btw) i was in the wrong . Not sure what came over me tbh Blush

FearfulYank · 12/10/2011 18:49

You may have come off a bit short but you weren't being b*tchy or anything!

I would just say that, that your own child has been bullied and it's very hard to see.

Also I think the OP has his head in the sand a bit. Hmm

RedRumMum · 12/10/2011 19:07

Thanks fearful xx

I was too hard on the op . getting a well deserved roasting now

IdjustassoonkissaWookiee · 12/10/2011 19:39

Ahh Elmo much love to you. Hide the thread x

Funny Tired mum. I like.

TiredMUMMYno1 · 12/10/2011 19:47

Redrum I had to say something as yanky said the op had their head in the sand, they need to take the other parents and childs feelings into consideration.

Glad you liked my name idea wookiee Grin

RedRumMum · 12/10/2011 20:48

Thanks xx

I've apologised on the thread , so i'll leave it at that now .

Wine anyone ?

FearfulYank · 12/10/2011 22:38

:( :( :(

Someone was shot in our town, well, outside it. here I didn't know any of the people involved, but how sad.

Anyway, that's my town and our police chief, and that's how I sound when I talk I guess...

gomummygo · 12/10/2011 23:17

:( That's awful Fearful. And a bit chilling; the way people describe the "alleged shooter" reminds me of someone I used to know very well. :(

You were right though, we do sound alike.

Haven't seen the thread Redrum, but three years in, you've done well!

I remember bloodandsnakesplease! I want to do a name change (not halloween, I mean in general) but have no idea what to pick . My current name is because that's what DS used to say to me all the time! Before this name, I basically namechanged every time I posted! Blush
