Favourite forgotten threads

Inspired by a few cracking zombie threads that have popped up over the last few days I was wondering what peoples favourite forgotten threads are?
I remember one about 8 years ago from a woman who had a ONS and the guy hadn't been particularly vigilant in washing his arse which was hilarious (the thread - not the dirty arse obviously).
Would be great to link to some funny ones and also see if the posters are still on here and can update though perhaps not the one I mentioned

"Also the chalet thread, I think it was linked to the Mexican house thief story"

The (Swiss) chalet and the Mexican house were two different MNers - albeit with similarish problems!

Swiss chalet OP was EspressoMonkey www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/1663760-To-tell-them-to-find-their-own-way-to-the-airport-in-a-foreign-country

Spin off thread based on 'sordid affair' troll thread. Was absolutely brilliant. Anyone else remember?

Yes!!! I loved that thread. It developed into a groupthink Jilly Cooper novel! Set in Farkin on the Water if I remember rightly. A Cheshire Scumbag became a thing!!! I was really sad when it petered out.

Champagne I remember the Christmas acorn game, it was hilarious!

One of the first posts I read was about a lady whose husband wouldn't let her in the garage. Does anyone know what happened?

CheersMedea thanks for linking, I couldn't find it! Loved it. Will re-read. Some talented, hilarious writing. Sordid bonkbuster.

What happened to Liftzilla? Or was that a troll??

CaulkheadUpNorf · 18/05/2017 22:40

My favourites were the little old Korean lady, the poo poffee (sp?) and I remember one about a horse. I can't remember it all but was it left
In someone's garden or something?

I loved the thread where a woman wedding dress was altered but she wasn't happy. A wonderful mums netter on here offered to fix it. We all watched and admired the pictures, she did an amazing job, but it all went pear shaped and the bride wasn't happy (mums netter was fab though that helped Grin

The shagging of the ow in op's wedding dress was a troll - it was becoming a magnificent novel suitable for serialisation in magazine form...

So glad it's not just me who loves Marty, Welsh Wales and Chip and Dale. DH, DS and I still quote from it,,and rereading it I still cried with laughter.

I'm really enjoying these- thanks, OP, just what I need on a rainy night,

Does anyone remember the MNer with the hollow banana? That was the stuff of nightmares - don't read on if you're squeamish: everyone egged her on to open it and it turned out to be some kind of huge beastie, a banana weevil, maybe?

It was horrifying.
