To think maybe we don't fit in?

[MadameOneSword]

I think I'm definitely an outsider on MN, my kids arent gifted, we aren't rich, dammit we both have the work, full time! we don't live in a castle, shopat waitrose and certainly don't eat this good ham that y'all talk about

Maybe I just go back under my rock?

Ooh I love it when they put bubbles in the fountains!

Can't recall ever seeing bubbles in a fountain, what epic vandalismm!

So where is this place I need to move to? Bristol? Right, whilst I look for babysitting jobs in Bristol, perhaps one of you could kindly prepare your spare room for me (I'll bring you a onesie and a tin of spaghetti hoops as payment) and start spreading the word that there's some welsh meat on its way...

MrsRB, I just microwave strands of spaghetti they kinda go all crunchy and bubbly- almost as good as a biscuit really and a lot more value for money!

Oh and just had a wee in my onesie, it's quite cold this evening but I'm sure my nipples will recover from the shock (especially when confronted with potential sperm providers in Bristol)

Madame you haven't lived! the whole centre (almost) ends up covered in bubbles! It's lovely :)

I will try your spaghetti snack tomorrow Cezella.

I need to know how you discovered that snack actually. Did you just think one day 'oh I wonder what microwaved uncooked spaghetti tastes like' ?

Do I qualify? DH and I are renting my brother's flat, all our furniture is second hand (including the sofa which, sadly, is not leather but green velveteen). I love the pound shop, and all my ds' clothes are from Sainsbury's TU range. Can bring some pot noodles to the picnic under the rock... Curry flavour, anyone?

I think I should be here. Before I moved down south and got the internet, I didn't even know I was common and big fat wrong in everything I do, poor ignorant me.

I actually aspire to laminate and twigs, I'm more manky carpet and children's doodlings on my walls.

Maybe I should be in a rock underneath your rock?

Well I live in a cardboard box in the bottom of a pit. We eat spam for very meal if we are lucky. Can I join in?

I'm actually serious unlike spamweekends. .

vforvientetta I just read that as "I aspire to laminate twigs" and I was like damn that's gunna break the laminator

Scampi I like the sound of that rock, good thinking. Somewhere I belong at last!

Looks like its a village here now!
RE onesies- not a good idea if you have the squits lol!

Mrs RB- I confess I'm a little bit of a pastaholic, I know a bit too much about it and would eat it for every meal if I could. I aspire to cook it in many different ways so these spaghetti cookies as it were, were just another kitchen experiment (being a poor student) which turned out well!

I don't have a spare room sorry cez, but move by me get ofstead inspected and we'll sort out breakfast club and school holidays child minding

"I'm more manky carpet and children's doodlings on the walls"

We aspire to hiring a carpet cleaner and updating my children's doodlings - I kid you not

I'll never start a thread saying

"we earn £70k, why are we still skint"

ever

We have a moth eaten hall carpet but I have posh laminate upstairs

I have ranjani floor laminate tiles in my hallway. They were 99p for a pack of 12 and have been on my hallway floor for years....

That is a total bargain! In your face expensive and non durable floor coverings!

I know wewere! I even bought a spare pack in case I'd need to replace any at some point, I haven't yet!

I could possibly persuade DH to put new flooring down if I could get something at that price he does not spend money

Shut up! Rajani do laminate? Why did I not know this?

I should have known really, they do everything else ever invented...

No there black and white sticky back fake tiles not laminate. I put them down myself with a stanley knife. you just peel the back off and stick it down it's not wood laminate.
