To be a bit miffed that just when I decide to start actually posting a bit on Mumsnet instead of just lurking, it suddenly seems much quieter than it used to be.

[IDoEverything]

Is it me, or is it quieter than usual?

Don't take it personally. It was manic earlier, my convo kept falling off the bottom every couple of minutes. Everyone's probably exhausted

I think its quieter than usual, the same conversations have been in active convos for three nights, its normally much quicker.

I have just come on tonight-so yes it must be quiet

It is very quiet at the moment.

Everyone's busy sewing on nametags.

Should have done what I did and bought iron on ones

woooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhoooo bahhhhhhhhhh blurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

feck

jugs

there u go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's coz I was working all evening instead of hanging around here!

Sorry, I will try to increase my MN time from now on (purely for your benefit IDE obviously

All the teachers are being good and marking books. In a few weeks they'll be back on here all night swigging gin.

better???

here, take that back!

Actually, isn't there tennis on or somthing?

Sewing?
Iron-on nametags?

At Snice Towers we use the time honoured method of writing the child's name with a biro on the back of the washing instruction label. I am either very common or very lazy.

good point, going to check it. bbs

or even both?

We have woven name tapes here dontchaknow

Woah.... Full blown fisticuff on my thread??!

Didn't even think it was a particularly outrageous subject either.

yabu

pull yerself together, woman.

lol @ biro name tags

I have woven name tags too bought in a rush of PFB madness before the start of reception. I gave up on them half way through Yr1 when I realised no-one (i.e. other mummies) will ever know.

just trying to liven it up for you!

I embroider(sp) my chn's names onto their clothes. Name tags are for slatterns.

snice's children will think their full name is dc surname made in taiwan © Johnny Boden and his simpering crew

You can superglue nametapes on.
The glue goes a bit hard in the wash, so don't do somewhere rubby.
But tis glue all the way for blazer and coats and that.

I too am miffed that after 2 years, no-one has ever known about my PINK WITH PICTURE OF A LITTLE FAIRY woven name tags.
