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?

Bagpuss, wewereherefirst, and Doogle2 - Welcome to the middle rock!

Just had to google Mooncup. What!?!

Ooh, cheers Scampi. Have you got any red from Aldi?

ssd I will never write a photo caption on Facebook that says "here is the view from our hotel room window in Marrakech". Or anywhere in the world really...

Brandy dh once put some of those in the bathroom. We later discovered after he'd botched up several packs that it was cheaper to get a carpet fitter in to come and lay some vinyl

I became another mumsnet stereotype today. I had not one but two three year olds strapped into a pushchair. They were having a tantrum too. I am sure people judged

Oh I love cider thanks very much,

I actually don't drink in the week, I'd never get up for school and work otherwise, so I love fridays I start about half 4

bagpuss you should of got me round to do it, Iv'e done my hallway for under £20 with extra and no bodges as long as you don't look under heater

Chocolate cake is always welcome.

Just as long as you dont buy those posey cupcake things. What is wrong with a good old fashoned fairy cake. Why oh why did someone have to shove extract buttercream on top and rename them cupcakes?

I like butterfly cakes, you know where you cut wings out of fairy cakes add some butter cream and put the wings back on. They are not new posey things my mum has always always done those.

Cupcakes with the butter cream towering over the cake are disgusting.

empress if amillion sees your name she's going to go mad

Ooh, butterfly cakes! I haven't made them in ages. I like proper cakes too. My mum keeps us in cake usually Victoria sandwiches or coffee and walnut.

I'll be changing it on the 1st of December.

Seriously though, fitting in? I'm unemployed (not through choice) and live in a council flat. I live in jeans, I'm not fussed about wine and my current passion is McFlurries. It took me a while to click with MN but now I'm fitting in very happily even if I don't match the stereotype (and it is a stereotype mostly).

But I do like cake.

Oooh, I love coffee and walnut cake bagpuss I really want some now.

Seems the cave population is rising I'm starting to think the 'others' are the misfits!

I love mcflurries esp around easter time the cream egg ones are the best.

I love this thread cake, more cake, garlic mayo, lidls bailys, macdonalds and no mooncups.

Madame your favourite subject (mooncups) is going on atm

I'm just visiting, Convert, my real home on MN is definitely the Puddle. We have a fire, a coffee machine and a hot tub. And hot water bottles.

That sounds nice. Lots of warming things, good for this bloody weather

I want a hot tub

I have red wine, that's warming!

Convert I really want a cake now too, but doubt my late night baking will be up to much once the dcs are in bed.

Will you all please stop mentioning the mooncup . They really hurt you know...

DHs face when I explained what a mooncup was would have put me off if I wasn't disgusted already He looked like he had just found tub girl in our bath.

Sorry bagpuss

I don't think I could stand the time waiting for the cake to cook at this point. I may go and bash up some malteasers and sprinkle them over ice cream. Not the posh ice cream. The crappy neopolitan stuff. Mmmm.

Ah I see...

I have mint matchmakers

It's very nice. Come and visit us sometime and you can have a go in the tub. Bring your malteaser ice cream

Stop with the Mooncups...,they make me feel violated. So does Annie Lennox actually, I bet she has a mooncup.

I have had 3 mince pies today

blurgh how horrible madame, I so do not want any of your chocolate.

Oh and when a child is born just came on tv and I burst out crying. Hormones? What hormones?
