I am fairly new to mumsnet and although i have seen some good advice given to people who have posted on here, i have to say i have been astounded by the judgemental and sometimes aggressive posts i've seen. Some people seem to 'give advice' very often on a number of subjects but they always seem to end up as sarcastic or nasty. This is obviously a personal opinion and i'm sure i will get flamed for it. On the whole there seems to be some great people here with just a few odd confrontational ones.

Just says Feb 2012 will be notified.

Have you registered for online sales ? Might be worth doing.

I wouldn't panic too much, if need be we can just travel up on the day and camp overnight.

Maybe we should start a MNWimbyDayOut thread ? Grin

I'm going to stick my neck out and say that I (sort of) agree with the OP. There are posters who seem to inhabit AIBU and there are some MNers who are aggressive. Have seen a few serious flamings recently.

However, the OP concludes that On the whole there seems to be some great people here with just a few odd confrontational ones. Yep. Pretty much sums it up.

Can we try a Mexican wave? I have had such a giggle waving this afternoon...it would just seal it for me and possibly confirm all pelvic floor comments too!

Before we do I wd like to say that I am a relative new commer to MN and am hooked.i have learnt so much...there are some angry people but there are more really witty women out there.

Ok....here goes....let's see how many waves we can do ?

Aw shame.

There has been no one decent to ogle at Wimbledon since the lovely Goran Ivanisavisavic.

Jamie, yes. Yes it was snarky. I'd say get thee to AIBU but it appears we're already there.

Judgements are usually witty, sharp and funny.

MrsDeeBee · 23/02/2012 17:01
