Yes I suspected my liver had probably packed its bags and left. Quick question: AIBU; My NDN has asked if I could possibly take in 3 camels that are being delivered to her to take part in her Nativity tableau as she’ll be out when the van arrives. I said I will but I’m not completely happy about it. WWYD?

3 camels ?
Doesn;t she trust you with the full packet of 20 ?

Ha ha ha! 🤣🤣🤣 Clearly not

Call 111, I'm not sure you should be meowing if you're a hedgehog

I’m not answering the door or the phone because I’m busy making a massive salad to have with quinoa, washed down with half a thimble of red wine. Am I drinking too much???

I hope you're not having Egg and Chicken on your Massive Salad Catpiece

Not only is it waaaaaaay too much protein but there's a weird Mother'n'Child vibe with Chicken'n'Egg

Don’t be a mug. You’ll never get the camel dung out of your shagpile.

That’s very discriminatory @3hairspastfreckle. Clearly, said hedgehog identifies as a cat.

Hot tubs, though...

RSPCA would be a better bet . 111 will send you to A&E and this is neither ,

Make sure you have a camera crew , some famous person who can do DailyMail SadFace and a famous TV Vet pulling their lubricated gloves on.

Speaking of "shag pile" , I know catpieces NDN and Nativity or not , there's no fecking way she'd pass as the Virgin Mary !

Why has no one yet asked is the poster ND?

I could agree with you but then we'd both be wrong eh <Head Tilt >

Did my "Meat Is Murder" TShirt and my gladioli sticking out of my arse not give it away then ? A La Morrissey out of The Smiths ?

Gosh you live in such a tunnel vision view bubble of the world .
I;m embarassed for you !

Anyway , I;m not one to harp on about my views .Lets just assume I;m right .
(Haven;t got the fecking energy to argue anyway , what with my haemoglobin level being 0.2 or something )

I'm a pedant and I've always got energy for an argument. What's with all the semi-colons?

If you're drinking on your own, you're clearly an alcoholic and need belp. See your GP immediately.

I blame ChatGPT for pretty much everything but for the colons , semi or otherwise I'm blaming the fact I'm trying to type with only one hand and I cannot reach the ' .
Or Wes Streeting as I blame him for everything else .
No lemon curd in Waitrose . Wes Bloody Streeting's fault .

I’d check Meghan Markles whereabouts at the time of the offence before you start chucking accusations at Wes. Horrible woman, selfish.

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 15/11/2025 18:30

ah but Meghan wouldn't wander along to my neck of the woods and Wes is from East London originally so he's much more likely to nip in and buy the last jar . Meghan with her cooking show (and bugger all else to occupy her ) should be making her own lemon curd . Wes is far far too busy'n'importantant to rustle up fruity conserves .
I actually love his voice Grin

Just scrolled up and couldn't find it. What does it mean??

Not upthread but here

https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/2879020-Cancel-the-cheque

Cancel the cheque is a euphemism for something that has been posted multiple times by different posters in response to a thread, as if it were a novel suggestion that no one had thought of.

I was watching 'Lady and the Tramp', and one of the dog characters seemed to look straight through the TV and at me. I was shaking and crying.
Should I call the police and report this dangerously out of control dog?

Sounds like psychosis to me. Get down to A&E asap

Well I was watching "Ringu" and told the Police that I was worried a scary looking long haired woman was easing her way through my telly screen.
They basically CBA bothering .

Si you can try telling them but change Tramp to Person of No Fixed Abode./Street Dweller or you'll come across a tad judgey .
