To think Mumsnet is mainly south of the border members?

I've been on Mumsnet for about 8 years and I've seen so few posters who say they are Scottish, and none whatsoever in my area (just outside Glasgow).

I've been on the local group (which is dead). It would be great to meet someone near me as I'm bloody lonely. I tried the meet a mum on the other mums website, that's dead too.

You'd think there were no mums in the west coast of Scotland or maybe they are all part of some super amazing website / group that I've yet to hear of!

Scottish mummies, where are you???

Another Fife poster here too. Indeed, is FannyFifer still around? Was she, indeed, from Fife?

frankie80 · 24/03/2015 20:57

I like everyone muddled in together. You must have been sleeping if you didn't see all the Scottish words ones or the independence ones!

beatricequimby · 24/03/2015 21:05

There was a whole thread about Dumbarton recently with quite a lot of people on it who were local. They are probably still around. I'm near Glasgow too.

frankie80 · 24/03/2015 21:08

I didn't see that thread? Do you have a link beatrice? Whereabouts are you?

Another Scot here - there's buggerin' hunners of us!

SayraT · 24/03/2015 21:19

I am from near Glasgow but now live in the borders.

Of course there are more people from England on this forum than from either Scotland, Wales or Ireland as the population is much bigger!

candycrushhater · 24/03/2015 21:19

I'm in North Lanarkshire Grin

MmeGuillotine · 24/03/2015 21:21

I'm Scottish, but currently live (very far) south of the border in Bristol. We're planning to move to Edinburgh in the next twelve months though. :)

shitebag · 24/03/2015 21:21

Frankie I'm from the same area as you! I live in NE Scotland now but originally from that town and many of my friends/family are there still :o

There are quite a few of us from there, I namechanged after saying a bit too much about school on a recent thread Blush
