I will not let you hide in the cloak and dagger Mumsnet Mafia

[TheResistance]

you won’t get away with this

Ooh I love a bagel with pastrami / salt beef, turkey, Leerdammer cheese, mayo, yellow mustard & gherkins. Tastes amazing.

I went to a shop today that sold chocolate horses' heads. I nearly bought some for the MNM but then realised it might out us.

Womafia, you mean.

Surely MN has a Muffia.

At the moment, analysing your colleagues, and in theory seeing if they they would be recruitable, and what their skill sets are

Well this all sounds excellent. I'm in!

@LadyOfTheCanyon 😂

That’s good to know Hawkins001 as I wasn’t clear on our brief. I don’t have colleagues but I’ve covertly observed 3 of my friends over coffee (with Jaffa cakes in absence of bagels, croissants etc). They definitely seem recruitable to our organisation. Will let you know how this is going via coded messages. Chocolate horses heads would be quite conspicuous I suppose . They’re sound quite a niche chocolate product. We can’t risk drawing attention to ourselves through our snack choices.

Most impressive and very good perspectives.

@stepuporshutup I absolutely can take the wheel, thank you for asking.

I drive too fast and am impulsive with a complete disregard for safety. If the only way out is through tiny back streets and down steps, I'll take it.

Couldn't navigate my way out of a paper bag though so will leave all of that technical stuff to you.

@Hawkins001 I am getting on the everyday people disguises for us. I'm adding in plenty of pockets for tissues, lip salve and Kendal mint cake. Also heavily elasticated waistbands in case we hit the bagels and tea hard during lunch.

Correct. It’s probably just one though I reckon. With an alternate communications channel outside of MN. No you won’t stop it. Rogue will be informing Mafia of your alternate incarnations (and mine of course)… now.

Very impressive and most excellent, thank you for your talents and creations.

Aw man. I own a toilet brush. But it looks like a cherry so it's good at being incognito. No hot tub. Can I still join?

Pls cancel the cheque

I am fabulous at logistics. I can pack for three in under an hour, have everything unpacked & put away at the other end in less than that. With five minutes I know what's in every cupboard. Navigate? Nah, you're going to have to do that bit.

@iklboo will you please come and run my life for me, please?

I have a black cape and access to a large traitor-sized Victorian safe that I can't open or can I?

@007DoubleOSeven - blessed are the list makers. ☺️

The way that loads have jumped in on this is making me think it is a thing!!!!

it’s becoming a thing. I think we are at the mobilising stage where we ask/offer to join, list our strengths/weaknesses. Next we have to work out what we are meant to do. Today I went to town and bought some stuff from John Lewis and HomeSense. I tested some perfumes and chatted to a neighbour. I’m not sure how this fits in to Mafia type work as I didn’t come home with any protection money, I didn’t threaten to fit anyone out in a cement overcoat and I didn’t gather any intel other than what my neighbour had done in town.

Today at work I practised my evasion tactics, and managed to not get spotted all day by the person I was avoiding. Tomorrow I will be public facing, so I shall be practicing pretending to be someone who is good at being the centre of attention. I’m a chameleon me… Could be useful maybe?

sunbird your day sounds far more productive in terms of Mafioso activity than mine did. I must get more serious about my duties from tomorrow

@Pifflewiffle sounds like you’re all good for blending in with the public, so you cover that side of it, and I’ll get the sneaking about and not being seen stuff! Teamwork…

Brilliant I will pump up the tyres ready for driving down steps.
I will go shopping in the camper tomorrow and try a bit of surveillance from the back of the van.
I could analyse the shoppers trolleys
If no bagels, kendall cake or gin then obvs would not fit in.
I have a dodgy looking neighbour who was sat in their front garden wearing sunglasses and reading a paper that had peep holes..
I have a feeling it was a fellow member but neither of us wanted to blow our cover, the only thing she did whisper that the camper would look good with black curtains or
Could she be a spy?
