Who you calling PEASANT?!

I know when I'm not wanted, I'll not be sharing any more of my ingenious and resourceful advice

It was a truly great tip too.

What's this with the anchor tips anyway?? Are they us or just corporate tips??

WhenAChildIsBored · 09/12/2007 17:29

They're SHIT

compared to mine

Ok, so why does "janeite" have the same tip 3 times, and yet my (nearly identical it turns out) tip isn;t even listed?!?!

GrizzledOldScroogeMumznet · 09/12/2007 17:37

Oh, we're SO sorry Greensleeves, what an embarassing oversight! How could we have been so remiss as not to publish or even acknowledge your fabulously clever and original festive money-saving tip!

We'll rectify the mistake right now, in letters ten feet high, possibly even employing a sky-writer to get the job done properly. There's not a moment to lose.

And you can rest assured we will be launching an full internal inquiry into the origin of this schocking error. Sackings are a very real possibility.

WhenAChildIsBored · 09/12/2007 17:39

Humpf. Well........don't let it happen again.

FrannyandZooey · 09/12/2007 17:39

I somehow sensed this was your thread just from the title

I bet it was about ruddy Snowman Night

BahHunkerBug · 09/12/2007 17:44

"Get your friends and family together to learn the parts to all your favourite carols. Then you can go carol singing in your local area - a lovely way to spread the festive cheer. Perhaps you could raise money for a charity?"

Has anyone got friends and family who would do this?!

Kill me now...

WhenAChildIsBored · 09/12/2007 17:44

Oh no, I shan't be boring MNers any further with my kindly-meant but oft-spurned snowman-related teachings

I know when I'm not welcome

That carol-singing one is a veritable pile of bollocks

It's favouritism, that's what it is.

We have a group of 10 of us that sing in a 4 part choir set up around all the houses here. They love us. You can even hear the joy of "It's them again!!!" as we approach
