Mumsnet seems to constantly be having a bashing in the media so I thought I'd come and see what all the fuss is about. Are you all cackling o'l know it all witches and woman scorned doing voodoo dances naked? Wink

Should I run for the hills? Grin

If you have a partner prepare then to be ignored in tbe evening while you read active threads. My DH hates MN for this reason prepare your kids for being a little bit neglected too

It's highly addictive.

I also joined during the rockets into Lebanon period, and never returned to Babycentre.

I wonder if the Daily Mail realises that they're effectively running a MN recruitment drive?

NoSuchFairytale · 24/04/2013 21:33

Cheers all. No naked voodoo dances and witchcraft?? Bugger! I was looking forward to that! Wink

Hmmm. Intriguing nickname. Are you just a natural cynic or has your life so far been 'just one bloody thing after another' as Churchill apparently said? Either way, you'll fit right in.
