Vanilla has given me the great honour of starting the TENTH thread that absolutely no-one responds to. No-one at all. We have not racked up 9,000 previous posts talking about absolutely nothing.

Along the way we've become great friends. Newcomers are always welcome. So pull up a chair and join us in our mn version of Central Perk Café. We share jokes and memes, random facts and thoughts, our highs and lows, we are the card carrying lifelong members of The Union of different kinds.

So whether your life is perfection or;
Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A.
(If) it's like you're always stuck in second gear
(Whether) it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year,

We'll be here for you.

There's
Vanilla who brought us altogether
Toad & Jet who are our meme champions
Better who is advisory
Portia who has a famous boyf Wink
AGL who is young
Jess who likes to flounce
Red who has red hair
Being who's always there
Noone who is on holiday
Legz who makes purple cakes and Mouse who makes lots of cakes
Cat, MrsTP and others who pop in when they can.
(Sorry to anyone I've forgotten)

Oh and I'm supposed to be starting blues clues but had no idea what that was so will do my homework and add them in soon.

Oh yes (ahem) I am Jess recovering alcoholic; partner of six years left me in May with four year old DS, about a week after he was diagnosed with autism. So am single, over-sexed and constantly developing inappropriate crushes (am 41 and most recent crush is, er, a bit younger)

vanilla my mom is 21, despite me being mid 20's. Until she was fifty she claimed she hadn't aged at all since 18!

Horse I'm a single Mum, I was married to a bastard who hasn't bothered with his own dd for over 5 years. I married young and divorced young. Dd is 17 now and doing ok. Also lost my Dad and have now got a step dad who I don't like

MyDressIsInferiorBlue · 25/08/2016 21:45

Bear in the Big Blue House?

Bettercallsaul1 · 25/08/2016 21:48

You are obviously constantly busy with your farm, Horse - it's great that you can take some time out to be on MN.

AverageGayLad · 25/08/2016 21:48

It's on YouTube Grin

PortiaCastis · 25/08/2016 21:48

I am awesome and I come in peace

VanillaSugar · 25/08/2016 21:48

Dammit. DH has been in the bedroom and left the light on with the windows open. It's full of bloody little insects and months now Angry

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 25/08/2016 21:51

PortiaCastis · 25/08/2016 21:51

Leave my boyf alone you lot. Vanilla knows what he's going to do go nasty bitch school mum if my other plan doesn't work

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 25/08/2016 21:52

Oh!! I know that programme. I never watched it though.

MyDressIsInferiorBlue · 25/08/2016 21:52

I think we should have insect nets built into our windows like in Canada.

I was bitten last night

VanillaSugar · 25/08/2016 21:55

FGS Portia we've already told you off about your Birds Eye habits Shock

Yup, bear in the big blue house!!! I used to love that. Until Ben & Holly arrived, of course.

I also have a 9yr old boy Horse - he asks random questions, i.e. on Tuesday I was trying to negotiate a particularly difficult roundabout near Coventry and he said (in the middle of the roundabout, obvs) "Why are all the cars in Peppa Pig convertibles?" So I went around about 5 times whilst trying to explain about animators' preferences and all that, until I accidentally went to Birmingham.

Bettercallsaul1 · 25/08/2016 21:57

Well, at least it's not mosquitos - I was eaten alive, as usual, in France this year.

Horsegirl1 · 25/08/2016 21:58
