I hate it when the threads go away

I just settled down with a glass of wine to catch up on the creepy garden music and the thread has gone! It must be the 5th time that this has happened! Always the good ones. Oh well.

Oh no why was it deleted?! I was enjoying that

Manicpixidreamgirl · 23/09/2022 19:19

Things escalated apparently. Not in a supernatural way though! Shame

That thread is the exact reason I've just come on here now !!

RIPQueen · 23/09/2022 19:20

What happened?!

J0y · 23/09/2022 19:21

I missed that one but yes, I agree! Often I am settling in for a good ol' read when pooof

MrsHemsworth · 23/09/2022 19:24

I was invested in that, too. Shame.

Someone linked to another thread in it but I can't remember what it was. Anyone know?

Manicpixidreamgirl · 23/09/2022 19:24

It was literally my favourite thread of all time. I thought it would end up in classics.

Yep! So mysterious, hope the OP is ok.

Thanks, it wasn't that one that I was thinking of though. I'm sure it was a place name that began with an S?

Mxyzptlk · 23/09/2022 19:27

When MNHQ says 'We're going to take a look behind the scenes", does the thread ever get restored?

JaneJeffer · 23/09/2022 19:28

I think the newspapers got involved Sad

Manicpixidreamgirl · 23/09/2022 19:28

Savernake Forest… don’t know the thread though, only of it

OP posts:
MrsHemsworth · 23/09/2022 19:29

Yes! That was the one. Thank you.

FlissyPaps · 23/09/2022 19:31

Are we allowed to guess the reason why it got serious? …

A bit far fetched but my guess is a baby was abandoned and the music was from a toy the parent had left with it.

Is this unreasonable of me??

Gensola · 23/09/2022 19:32

Or it really was a ghost and OP has vanished into the underworld?

Sheetonthebed · 23/09/2022 19:32

Just came on to catch up with that one!!
What happened?

Mushroo · 23/09/2022 19:39

I’d also like to know! @FlissyPaps i like the theory!

Or the clown was real and living in the garden

That's what I thought something sinister

PinkButtercups · 23/09/2022 19:53

This happened the other day when apparently (clearly a troll) didn't feed their newborn milk but instead crushed grapes or something. It went so quick I didn't have time to grab the popcorn.

Cakeorchocolate · 23/09/2022 19:53

It's very annoying.
Would be less common if the tabloids didn't prowl for stories and if mumsnet didn't promote threads on sm too. Their own worst enemy!

Scuttlingherbert · 23/09/2022 19:54

Maybe it was something boring like the source of the tinkly music was something to do with OP's neighbours and they were cross about the thread

User34352515 · 23/09/2022 19:57

I had the thread open on my phone and came back to the deletion message. Very odd. My first thought was along the lines of OP's safety being in danger such as people figuring out where she lives and wanting to investigate. Or maybe the music was playing from an abandoned mobile phone/device that is now implicated in a theft or missing persons case.

pompomdaisy · 23/09/2022 20:01

I think ops husband took offence at The Mirror newspaper arriving on his doorstep.

ellebelli · 23/09/2022 20:03

It is very annoying,I was enjoying all the other posters stories of creepy music more than the original post...sad it is gone.
Maybe could continue with those stories in this thread?
