To issue a siren and sound a klaxon for those of us that once played together across the boards

[Hullygully]

Perhaps I am...but where are they now?

Come hither lamented playmates and fill my heart with joy and laughter.

I actually wrote that song but it was nicked off me.

Fuckers.

Honey, move to Norfolk, I'm going to move there as soon as DD2 has finished school. We can terrorise the neighbourhood walking all the dogs together.

You forgot me, GetOrf, you forgot ME.

Wouldn't it be great if all the best MNers moved to Norfolk together!
I could move too and be the geeky kid following all the cool kids about!

By the sea please, I am spoilt for beaches up here, and have no intention of giving up that privilege. Norfolk is lovely, and Norwich is great for shopping.

Ok, I'll move to,a Norfolk when Stratters does.

Yay!

We could take over an entire village. The Village of the Damned Mumsnetters.

I'm up for it. We could start a communal dining hall, (run by me, obviously) so no one had to cook if they didn't want to.

I grew up there and my mum still lives there so it's my first port of call when I go back to the UK.

Yes to the beaches (the light is amazing) and to Norwich being A Fine City. I daydream about returning to the UK more frequently than ever and mull over where exactly I'd live.

aw, Fids!

Norwich is definitely where I will settle when I stop this expat shenanigans. I love it there.

Too flat and nothing but windmills.

Naaarch is lovely Hully, and flat is good for old people

Flat is good for everyone. Where's the extra virtue in climbing?

Beautiful skies and light too.

Oh yes, Stratters. You're not helping my homesickness though.

Sorry Fid, lovely. Just daydream about the lovely village we will all live in.

Nothing to be sorry for Stratters, I was being wistful - and a bit tactless I think.

Yes to daydreaming.

My garden's full of wild boar again. I've had the village "Hunter" out this week trying to shoo them back to the forest. That's his job title. It's like something out of Hansel and Gretel

Norfolk? Naaah

Nice spot, but you can keep it.

Getorf reminded me today I've met you Paggy which I'd forgotten. I have no memory of what you look like though!

So waves

Also, whist she's on her way home I have to point out that Getorf's 'missed my train stop' tales are only limited by mainline trains. She confessed to tube disasters today
So I'm right to be texting her like a mother hen asking if she's on the right train

She's going to call me a cunt I know it

Not me Len
I ask a woman with a shopping bag for directions
Never fails

DD1 got to go to Norfolk for a week in April
She adored it.

Dolly you are a cunt.

I can't help it is a great big bell doesn't ring at paddington to encourage me to get off.

I am just watching masterchef and waiting to see the wellcome trust

Who needs fucking masterchef when I am cooking lunch?

getorf you are normally pissed when you miss your stop though
