Somebody placed an obvious advert for a new music prep school and nursery in the nursery forum. I pointed out it was a blatant advert to Mrs Mumsnet and it removed. In the email Mumsnet sent me I realised that the name of the school was a bit...unfortunate: RIMU.

Policeman - "Where are you going to Miss?"
Lady - "I'm going to RIMU!"

snigger :)

Hungrydragon · 23/10/2011 15:02

the logo's a bit unfortunate too.

Nothing like a bit of free advertising even if it is for the wrong reasons!

TiggyD · 23/10/2011 15:10

It is a bit slow in the Tiggicave today.

Thankfully. I so do not want to see what a [wank] emoticon would look like.

AnyPhantomFucker · 23/10/2011 15:32

do we have a [wank] emoticon ?

if not, we should campaign for one

MrsDalliard · 23/10/2011 16:05

And they've misspelled "focussed" on the website too.

AnyPhantomFucker · 23/10/2011 16:06

that mis-spelling of "focused" irritates me beyond belief

Bohica · 23/10/2011 16:12

Yes, we need a [wank] emotion and the we can add er to the end of it.

valiumredhead · 23/10/2011 16:13

Snort! I know where that is as I used to live nearby. How funny! Grin

I keep reading the thread title as "...to ask for a removed head to be returned just so we can take the piss?" I know it's coming up to Halloween, but I didn't know Mumsnetter were that bloodthirsty.

'RIMU'. I'm so childish Blush

Ok I am childish to and so is DH.BlushBlush

nenevomito · 23/10/2011 18:13

I'm sending my child to RIMU

Erm, no thanks Grin

nenevomito · 23/10/2011 18:15

Gosh, just checked the fees.

I thought I could get my child to RIMU for less than that.

Shock
TiarasTimeOutsAndTantrums · 23/10/2011 18:15

Fecking hell do real people honestly pay that much for nursery?!

NessaRose · 23/10/2011 18:18

Why are the fees for the afternoon less than the morning? Confused

vincentvangogh · 23/10/2011 18:23

actually, that's an accepted spelling of focussed. Just the less common one. But I suppose they probably want only the "less common" types there. I was looking to see what RIMU stood for but it's not just an unfortunate acronym, it's actually some tree. Confused
I won't be sending my child to RIMU

SickleBOO · 23/10/2011 18:23

?

TethHearseEnd · 23/10/2011 18:26

Hahahaha RIMU Grin

I used to teach in a school whose motto was "More is in me". We all sniggered through assembly. Every day. For two years.

hatesponge · 23/10/2011 18:29

sniggering here too Grin And it's only just down the road from me.

I do know someone local who could afford to send her DC there, and may well do so. However she is so straitlaced humourless I doubt she would get the joke...

sorry. still Grin a bit. corners of my mouth keep twitching.
