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?

Do they not mind having their names across the front of their school jumpers?

its cos i was away for the weekend lol

Hang on - who said anything about names on front of jumpers?

And how come my thread is suddenly about name tags?!?!??!??!!?!?

Of couse they don't mind. They want everyone to know what a clever mummy they have.

It is quieter.

It is because those of that know are on route to Mars.

Courageously I stayed behind to fill the breach and ensure no random question about lunchboxes goes unsullied with a quick 'meh'.

My mum used to draw my uniform on me with blue biro. She couldn't sew.

You are now lurking on your own thread IDo-the irony

I have just sewn a pirate dress for dd.

But I intend to use a complex batik method for nametags when she starts school

I have chartered a late night flight to Switzerland.
I have been employed to flick to the switch.
Do NOT tell cod.

Eeeek Fabio
That sounds better than name tags

snice you do the irony. I thought we all had a fair bash at that

Fab - did you get the change in codes I sent you? I have them around somewhere...

tis fine just don't press the button without them or.......

KABOOOOOM

fabio visits switzerland

[Furiously biting pyjama sleeves in attempt to muffle laughter] emoticon

I was talking to IDoEverything Slur-don't get what you mean

cornsilk: since my baby tipping beer on laptop disaster some weeks ago involving near-insurance claims, I forbid you to make me spray hot chocolate over my keyboard again please!

snice - joke my love.

A crap apparantly.

Who is gonna head up the campaign to not tell Cod?!!?!?

'Do not tell Cod
Do not tell Cod
Do not tell Cod'

.....chanting fades off in favour of laughter at thread about quiteness becoming thread about name tags becoming thread about the end of the world

PS have had no time to read papers, can someone summarise the end of the world on Thursday for me in 3 sentences or fewer please?

Also am worried about Wilf's laptop the way this thread is going

Wilf - do not click on Slur's link

never mind that IDo, what about my farking grammar?!

Forbid you to make me? For christ's sake...

Its on Wednesday-but it'll prob be all right -its in Switzerland and they're very good at technology.

You're already in trouble Wilfy mate.

End of world scheduled for 8.30 Wednesday.

Sum up.......

Clever scientists built big machine under some mountains.
Will shoot particles at each other hoping for collision.
Will record what happens, and will either
a) find answers to universe
b) destory the universe.

Well in for a penny......

The world will turn into green goo, a bit like farty putty. So it's not all bad.
