If you were to meet any Mumsnetter, who would it be?

[chocolatecup]

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!

I second MrsTerryPratchett

My pick too. Very perceptive.

Mine would be one that I've met loads in RL then lost details - a Hannah B.

The other that I used to love talking to, sharing shit and having a laugh with - Paula W.

Message me if you think you know who I am. You can drop hints!

About a year ago, I had a wonderful day with @chopinandchampagne. Such a wonderful woman.

And there are a few other sandgropers on here. Ladies, today is a good day for a rose together.

No one in particular but I often think “I wanna be your mate!” when someone is hilarious.

I can think of several who I’d find insufferable in real life… 😂 Not spilling the tea though- that’d be too mean. All I’ll say is they often rear their heads on the same topics. Some are like a broken record on here.

WatchKeys and Pinkbonbon. They 'get it' about abuse and give good advice.

Loved the bones of her.

I still quote her (probably wrongly) on any of the utterly mad "lasagne" threads where everyone lists what they put in a lasagne (none of which have any remote connection to lasagne)

She said something like "an old tyre, that block of raspberry ripple ice cream I've been meaning to eat, bit of roadkill the dog brought in,sprinkle a bit of Weetabix on top, you know, just another Mumsnet lasagne".

Sorry she's gone.

😂😂😂

I've had a few favourites over the years but the one I miss most, because she usually had a grounded perspective on everything and was wise and kind, was Leningrad.

I used to follow her on Twitter and we 'spoke' on there occasionally, but I've not seen her here or there for years. I imagine she just grew out of MN, people do, and let's face it, it's a pretty exasperating place at the best of times.

But you have a great username - she was the one who received a priceless pearl necklace instead of cheap glass beads by mistake, if I remember right.

Yes. That happened on here to someone and I think that it was esd.

It was a few years back though so perhaps it was done to another poster and I am misremembering.

I'd love a mumsnet festival- basically we all hire a field for glamping and we all get to meet up and ask one another "did we mean to be so rude?" And the only food stall is "chicken and a massive salad".
People either wear clothes that are high fashion editorial pieces or clothes of extreme comfort that make us look homeless despite actually being mortgage free on a 7 bed detached property in the cotswolds.
Drinks vans serve whispering angel, Earl Grey with lemon and or americano with no milk or sugar. Water must be snuck in like drugs, in condoms inside your vagina.
Except we all say vulva now, not vagina.
The camping is set out into 2 sets of people, those who hate dogs and those carrying their dogs in stetchy slings.
The stages comprise of "Amanda" "kevin" and "liz" stages and depending on your social class you can attend the events on said stages. Amanda stage features a Sam Cam as a special guest speaker, poetry recital from a maya angelou tribute act and at the end of the day goodiebags gifted from Jo Malone.
The Kevin stage has a performance from an interpretative dance group, the performance is named, "austerity; the musical", despite no music. Then a guest appearance by Alan Titchmarsh telling them how to get the most wildlife visiting your country gardens and sacrificial burning of AstroTurf where the plastic ashes are then sent back to the devil himself.
The liz stage is occupied by the 8 northerners who use mumsnet where we can be found trying to inhale smuggled Greggs sausage rolls and repeatedly asking the main stage event one time x factor runner up to sing wonderwall. On repeat. Our guest speaker didn't arrive so head security guard Steven instead gives us a full lowdown on his full sleeve tattoo and shares with us what the meaning behind each of his Chinese symbols are supposed to be, until a rogue Mandarin reader who's lost from the Amanda stage comes and takes the wind of of his sails by explaining they actually read the following, "I have a micro penis". Poor Steve.

Same, and after the data breach I started name changing much more often. So no one would know who I am anyway.

There's a couple I'd like to meet just to punch them in the throat tell them they are insufferable to their smug nasty little faces

Yeah she was funny.

Anyfucker was sound on relationship advice about DV especially.

I wonder about bluntness too. She was very short and direct in her posts, which many users hated, but she often made sense.

I assumed she name changed or maybe got banned. Didn’t occur to me that something might have happened to her.

I think CorgitoErgo or something similar. Always great advice and very articulate.

Yes Bluntness100 too!

Where can I buy tickets and can I pre-book for Liz stage please?

If I remember rightly, she's a Geordie. We all do that.

She's still here! Always updates every time we have a storm incoming!

@lucysmam and the lady with the grumpy cats - @toddler tea please? Something like that?

I would soooo love to meet them. MN celebrities!

The ones who annoy me, possibly, so i could confirm all my prejudices why they are unreasonable. I'd be happy to just sit quietly & observe.

Thank you for the mention@noooooooo It made me smile, over my usually boring cup of morning tea😁

I have a picture in my mind of what some posters look like. Would be so interesting to see if im right.

Oh! And @shithole101 and @PigletJohn!

I'd buy a camping ticket for that - I'd even bring a MN chicken (free range and organic of course, should serve about 900 for a weekend?!).
