To start ANOTHER thread that no-one responds to?

[VanillaSugar]

Go on. You know you want to. Either don't post or help me get to a thousand posts (again). Please sing, laugh, quote Jane Austen and post pictures of Aiden Turner in the buff.

So you're more of a virtual mother then, toad?

There's a MN poster called BishopBrennansArse if I'm not mistaken.

Better

Yes, a virtual one. Trying to mother at a distance over the Internet is a tough one. I wonder if I should start a thread about that?

I've seen that poster around, Better

Yes, you start a thread about the difficulties of mothering Average - how he won't eat nutritious food and how hard it is to make him.

And about how you don't know if he's 18 or 43.

"AIBU to not want 50 mumsnetters forcefeeding me apples and halloumi?"

Or if he's male or female

But then he'd probably come on and argue his case and try to put you in the wrong. That's a problem
that doesn't usually arise in threads - it's conveniently one-sided.

Oh, he's already done it!

"AIBU to not want 50 mumsnetters forcefeeding me apples and halloumi?"

We do it because we CARE! You can't have too much love.

Thank you - much appreciated..an afternoon spent reading Roald Dahl in his bedroom won't do any harm. It's too hot here, anyway sorry to everyone who says it's raining for him to be outside.

S'fine. We can pile in and accuse them both of being trolls

Better

Oh yes, I never thought of that.

I will send him to his room and take away his access to the Interwebs whilst I put the thread up...

And about how you don't know if he's 18 or 43

Yes, I have a feeling if I mention this in my thread about my own son, they might suspect I'm a troll

Hmm. S'pose.

Unless he is adopted

It would actually be much more fun if the person being bitched about in a thread always made an appearance and gave their viewpoint. Then we could be the judge and jury. It would be like a virtual Jeremy Kyle show.

Yeah, it'll be okay. Sun? Heat? What's that then?

Vanilla No cutting tubes today as the waves are small. I've lived here all my life ( except for uni) and only managed to tube a couple of times
However I did my lifeguarding many moons ago and once brought a child back to shore.

We have been mainly larking about and having a giggle.

Right AGL tell us your plans for the future. Will you be gainfully employed or a slothful student? I take it that you've just left school if you're 18 as you say

Better

It would certainly be interesting

Portia

Glad you had a lovely time.

That reminds me - AGL have YOU learned to swim?

Woohoo! 600!

Next weekend is the boardmasters festival in Newquay. According to dd Chase and Status are headlining
I thought Chase was a quiz programme and Status was what people put on fb but when I asked dd she said FGS Mother!
