Well MP is someone we can agree on @PunsandNeedles
She and DMBL40 are the only two (who I would class as instamums) I follow.
I do follow Trinny too.She doesn't do links or ads and so you know where you are with her.

Gobbolinothewitchscat · 23/05/2018 20:07

motherpukka is the exception that proves the rule unfortunately.

She is also fairly unique on instagram in that she is articulate and coherent and can see the bigger, more strategic, picture

HolyMountain · 23/05/2018 20:08

ok but appalling? sending dm's telling other IGer's to leave the thread [in question] when they've , quite rightly, pointed out her hypocrisy which she didn't have an answer to and to accuse them of being a bully/ troll.

Yes, appalling.

PavlovaPrincess · 23/05/2018 20:09

@AdidasGirl I agree with you. I was also a Brosette 🙌

I have irrational fear that constant Mn love-in for MP will lead to her being jumped on by jealous gang of instamums in the cloakroom at the next influencer event

Nooooooooooooo Sad

SugarBunker · 23/05/2018 20:22

Obviously irrational because there's no jealously on Instagram 👌🏻

Amanduh · 23/05/2018 20:23

I can’t think of much worse than MP. Bores me to tears

ISayOldChap · 23/05/2018 20:24

You are entitled to your opinion Amanduh even if it's wrong

PunsandNeedles · 23/05/2018 20:34

HolyMountain check those screenshots posted on the last thread. There was history between mod and LH.

Did anybody read all the comments between them before they were deleted?

MarshaBradyo · 23/05/2018 20:36

I wouldn’t and don’t follow sny of them. I didn’t even know who they were before these threads

Ignorance was bliss! Should have not clicked

It will blow over and nothing will change, probably

PunsandNeedles · 23/05/2018 20:48

......no? There was previous history about the Mozambique trip and other people on that trip mentioned in those comments by both of them.

If we are going to be appalled, I really think we must make sure why. Or we are just doing the tabloids' job for them.

MarshaBradyo · 23/05/2018 20:48

NeverWas who do you mean? I’m at a loss!

HolyMountain · 23/05/2018 20:58

If we are going to be appalled I really think.....

I wasn’t talking on behalf of anyone else.

jamoncrumpets · 23/05/2018 20:58

I'm mostly just jealous of all the nice lunches they seem to eat. Shits all over my slice of Warburtons and Heinz tomato soup.

PunsandNeedles · 23/05/2018 20:58

mod and lh knew each other before the KK post. It was discussed in comments on KK post before it was deleted.

Anyhow. Like I said most of us don't know the full story, so rehashing it over and other is a waste of your time.

PunsandNeedles · 23/05/2018 20:59

HolyMountain I edited it from you to we to be polite.

Hodgeheg3 · 23/05/2018 21:03

Utterly irrelevant but thanks to these threads my children are no longer satisfied with having guinea pigs as pets and want an albino peacock. And my Instagram feed is much lovelier since someone suggested following national geographic plus i’ve discovered the fabulous cookie_kibbles

CadyHeron · 23/05/2018 21:04

There we go - jealous. Though if anyone else suggests it nobody's jealous at all. It's obvious from some of the posts on here.

MarshaBradyo · 23/05/2018 21:04

I just need both my arms back so I can get on with stuff (baby usually about my person) of course hanging out with you fine people has been good - Titanic Leo voice

I did think today SM is annoying, not sure it’s doing us many favours

CadyHeron · 23/05/2018 21:05

On here being the thread's in general I should say, not just this one. the "greedy" "grabby" "how is that work" comments etc.

MarshaBradyo · 23/05/2018 21:06

Cady you have trigger timing on these threads, esp for the word Jealous

I think Jam was mucking around a bit

CadyHeron · 23/05/2018 21:09

Trigger timing? Just commenting when it actually comes to actual points, instead of just pages of watching accounts and giggling/commenting/did you sees etc.
