Would I being unreasonable to ask how many mumsnetter were are the concert/festival today. Looking around it looked about that like about 50% of the mums were.

How do you work that out ?

Are Mumsnetters a particular type ? Not being goady , genuinely wondering.

lisasimpsonssaxophone · 08/09/2018 23:36

All wearing Mumsnet scarves and brandishing bottles of Zoflora?

Fair enough .

I was going to go but couldn't afford too even though I live not too far from Blackheath so this Mumsnetter was not there Smile

But what made you say that?

MissusGeneHunt · 08/09/2018 23:53

I don't think there is a 'type' at all... Hence the joy of MN! Everyone's different, and hallelujah for that...

Liverbird77 · 09/09/2018 15:12

I was there last year!

Sheldonoscopy · 09/09/2018 15:16

leesa hey! Wondering how local to me you are now!
I wasn’t there, but could hear it. Hope it was fun!

Bunbunbunny · 09/09/2018 16:34

Ooh is there a mumsnet scarf? I missed out!

I wanted to go to see Madness a few years ago at Blackheath, saw them at Clapham Common instead but they took ages to get on the stage.

ThanosSavedMe · 09/09/2018 16:36

Have been before but not this year. Line up was shit!

keyboardkate · 09/09/2018 16:46

Boden clothes

Saltwater sandals

Children who are immaculately behaved

Organic food

Dogs galore

Hi there!

LaurieFairyCake · 09/09/2018 16:51

The Divine Comedy were playing last night according to the line up. They’re fantastic live, seen them before.

I could hear ‘Squeeze’ from my house Grin Very big stadium band

LaurieFairyCake · 09/09/2018 16:52

No dogs allowed at the festival

SE13Mummy · 09/09/2018 19:03

I was there yesterday but only because I was lucky enough to get a free ticket.

I had to leave as there was a nutter with a snake around her neck today, sorry it is a massive phobia. Love the way you are search for a wee glass of wine......but snakes, come it in by why not.

I could walk to it but agree the line up looked shit so this mumsnetter wasn’t there either.

Grumpasaurus · 09/09/2018 23:21

I usually go (also an SE13 Mom), but was at a wedding this year, so couldn't.

Didn't love the line up.

If it helps I went before I was a mom!

Ethylred · 09/09/2018 23:32

Huh? I thought Mumsnetters were overweight with unfaithful husbands whom they resented even before the affair.

nancy75 · 09/09/2018 23:34

I drove past at about 4.30 but I doubt if you saw me as I was in a car

Leesa65 · 10/09/2018 13:58

And another bold fail .

ForalltheSaints · 10/09/2018 14:00

I went a couple of years ago and would guess about 50% of those who were there have at least one mumsnetter in the family.
