Forgive me mumsnet, for I have sinned...

[AlternativelyWired]

Lighthearted!

My sin: I went to a Wetherspoons whilst on holiday in England. Not once, but twice The food was great and I have 3 children with very restricted tastes in food. I'm the same so the menu suited us all. I feel bad about going there knowing the mumsnet consensus on the guy who runs Wetherspoons but it met our needs. I am a Catholic and feel like I need to say a few Hail Marys as a result.

What are your mumsnet sins?

I have 4 children.

I took my son to eat at wetherspoons twice in one day at Easter. He had the same full meal both times.

Not done housework for a whole week, in my defence I was having a new bathroom fitted.

Lol OP!

I like a Wetherspoons too.

I park in parent and child, when I have my kids with me. They ARE young enough - 5 and 9 - but according to the Mumsnet Commandments, you must NEVER park in P&C, even if you have 2 sets of triplets all in car seats and need the room. You must keep those spaces free (otherwise you’re ‘entitled’) in case someone with an invisible disability comes along. Even if it’s a 22yo bloke in a Porsche 911 with no children, who sprints into Asda like Linford Christie and comes out carrying 4 weeks of shopping on his biceps, he’s probably got a unidentifiable sore foot and needs it more than the triplet mum

I smoke.
Earn under 21K a year FT - have never earned over 25K and I’m 58.
Need to lose 4 stone.
Don’t eat fruit.
Have a loo brush.
Put milk in a mug, add teabag then water.
There’s lots more (I also have strong views on wains in nappies past 3 (SN aside) - I really don’t belong on MN really.

Yeah smoking in the house with kids isn't cool. Are you my mother ?

I love my MIL
I have TWO toilet brushes
I have never ‘confronted’ anyone
I don’t mind that DH is a terrible cook, and therefore I cook all the time for both of us

Please note I’ve never smoked inside.

I also cannot make a weeks worth of meals from one chicken.

I make one meal from one chicken

Oh and I forgot

I ALWAYS ANSWER A KNOCK AT MY DOOR

(phew, that feels.better)

I can tick some boxes here
I like a Wetherspoons
I use toilet brushes
I don't wash towels after one use
I get on fine with my MiL
I have never had a drama or any big "falling out" with a friend, evr
I don't keep track of who I have invited round to play or who I have given a lift to
I am happy to give lifts to whoever if I am going out, taking or fetching my dc from the same place
I like seeing my friends' Facebook posts and seeing them doing nice things....yes, even if they haven't invited me. It has never once crossed my mind it is boastful.

Probably worst of all - I like weddings. I don't spend "hundreds of £££" on them. It it is too difficult to get there, I accept that and thank them for the invitation and decline without there being any issues, but mostly, I go, and I enjoy the day. I even like being invited to the evening party of a wedding.

I can't understand how I've not been drummed off MN a long time ago.

I started a thread in AIBU about Noah Donohoe. Don't worry, I've already been severely punished! It is now languishing in the MN equivalent of a dusty broom cupboard.

I like hen do’s. As in proper old fashion inflatable Willy L-Plate hen do’s in Benidorm. I know In MNland if you’re hen do is anything other than afternoon tea at the Knitwear Factory, followed by a game of dominoes, you’re a massive chav, but I LOVE them!

I smoke weed.
Sometimes I go out and don’t come home till 6am, then expect (and get) nursed through my hangover the next afternoon leaving dh to deal with the kids.
I didn’t give a shit if someone touched my baby in the street.
I like my mil, no beef there at all.
I don’t care about my husband gaming.
I love bonfires and don’t mind if my neighbours have one, even if my washing is out.
I don’t care if people let off fireworks.
I’ve never seen a single thing I would wear in Toast.

Sat in our hot tub.
Didn’t bulk anything up with lentils and never have.
Ate carbs and sugar.
Used our en suite bathroom
Enjoy living in the US
Didn’t armchair-diagnose anyone as a narcissist
Put the dogs’ bowls in the dishwasher
Used the dishwasher and the dryer
Didn’t book a spa day
Didn’t take in ironing
No one came to the door but if they did I would have opened it without hesitation
I have tattoos

What’s wrong with having a toilet brush?

I voted brexit
I read the Daily mail

Are you from the UK? Forget about Mumsnet, you should probably renounce your citizenship for the way you make tea.

I have a hot tub and I love it. Use it daily. Sorry not sorry.

I am also pretty much always on the cyclists side in any cyclist bashing thread - they are not the ones polluting the atmosphere / causing traffic jams /causing the vast majority of accidents and deaths on the road <runs away fast>

I often leave washing out overnight as i like the fresh smell.
I also vaped for ages and loved it. Forgive me MN for I have sinned.

Have a washing up bowl and I don't rinse the washing up afterwards.
Let my dogs bark, sleep on my bed.

I also love hen dos /weddings and parties even ones for lame reasons like baby showers. Getting together with friends what’s not to like?

Well, that's plain dangerous, poor kids

I went to Wetherspoons last week too and I enjoyed it!
I despise salad and have never eaten one. (I do love fruit and veg though!)
