And in what capacity? So it could be someone you just think seems really nice, and you could chat and have tea together. Or someone fun for drinks and going out. Somebody with whom you'd like to have a good debate and set the world to rights. A Mumsnetter you'd like to go shopping with, as you like the sound of their style. Or a wise, kindly soul whose advice you would unashamedly seek! An ideal dinner party guest, perhaps?
Looking forward to reading your replies (have name-changed though, as it just felt a bit awkward using my own!). I must confess to being shockingly unobservant when it comes to names on here, even if I have received some wonderful replies and perspectives over the years.

Let the unmumsnetty love commence! Grin

I'd like to meet Fannyfiggs cos she lives closest to me and I think we'd get on...

IClaudine · 16/02/2024 21:01

All the people on the long running politics thread in chat.

puffylovett1 · 16/02/2024 21:05

I’d love to meet ohyoubadbadkitten I think her name was? Her weather updates were fabulous

and Xenia 😆

MrsTerryPratchett · 16/02/2024 21:06

Oooo and Statistically. She's brilliant.

Sobbingteen · 16/02/2024 21:22

I'd like to get stoned with gamerchick. Not that I've read anything that suggests she would get stoned, it's just her prolific use of the word 'man' and the fact she seems unusually chilled for a mumsnetter.

Hughs · 16/02/2024 21:34

There's someone whose username is some combo of Jesus and a cabbage van who always makes me laugh.

Plus all the lovely people on a thread I'm on for kids in a certain year.

I agree mumsneedwine is endlessly knowledgeable, patient and encouraging on the medic threads.

mrlistersgelfbride · 16/02/2024 19:43

Anyfucker, she sounded like a strong woman not to be messed with.
And Lottapianos, every time I read something from her she comes across very well and gives great advice.

I think I come across well on forums, I'm too non descript to be remembered on Mumsnet but I'm actually lovely IRL 😅

I came on to say Lottapianos!!

Also ComtesseDespair (she lives in my pocket of SE London and runs so chances are we’ve passed each other).

I always like reading MintJulia’s posts - they ooze peace and contentment.

mrlistersgelfbride · 16/02/2024 21:52

Mintjulia is awesome too, she's seems very chilled

I used to LOVE Jesusinacabbagevan.

Unfortunately, she got upset by something mnhq did. I can't remember what now, banning a popular poster or maybe the sex topic in active, and she posted to say she'd be deregging because of that
I was very sad about it

BananaSplitsss · 16/02/2024 22:03

porridgeisbae · 16/02/2024 22:26

@Category12 . She could give the only TED talk on relationships of all kinds that I'd bother to watch. Smile

Stigsmother · 16/02/2024 22:28

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats, I think we have a lot in common Grin

HellooooJackie · 16/02/2024 22:40

Just waiting for Cod to be mentioned, and we've hit Mumsnet Royalty bingo!

TempleOfBloom · 16/02/2024 22:42

Newtoniannechanics · 16/02/2024 18:38

Totally agree. Does feel a bit old girls fam club.
Mean girls style.

Describing people who made the trouble to come to a meet up, to meet you, as ‘average’ does indeed sound mean.

porridgeisbae · 16/02/2024 22:57

What's wrong with being average, anyway? Sounds good to me.

WithIcePlease · 16/02/2024 23:04

Anyfucker
And I'm quite curious about RemusLupinsbiggestgroupie

CatchAButterfly · 16/02/2024 23:14

I NC regularly now after being outed in the past, but anyone else disappointed to not see their name on the thread…!

Aw lol no. I know I wouldn't win any popularity contests. Smile

Kemblefordsnice · 16/02/2024 23:18

There have been about a handful over the years who were funny and wise.
Always.
I haven't seen their names for quite a while owing, probably, to name changes , which I do regularly now.

I always read and smile at @webuiltthisbuffetonsausagerolls

Teasie123 · 16/02/2024 23:19

Underthesea65. She's made such an impact on me. She sounds so amazing.

Bristolian79 · 16/02/2024 23:22

No idea who it was, but whoever coined the term 'dressing gown of doom'. When first reading it here and understanding the context it had me in hysterics. So whoever it was, thanks!

Cloverforever · 16/02/2024 23:26

WatchKeys because she always gives excellent advice.

Oh but it doesn't matter whether other people think it's great advice. What matters is that it's great advice to you. Smile

Oh god no. I think I have disagreed with every piece of advice she's ever given, especially on the relationship board.
