to still feel a tiny bit hacked off that I was found lacking by a certain "rival" website?

[notgoodenough]

I have my suspicions what the reasons were for my rejection but won't go into them because I don't want to disclose who I am.

And yes I do know for a fact that I was vetoed, not "accidentally left out".

lol soupdreggon...you got me

you are inspiring me to troll there...please stop

Wedges tickle you then, MP?
Marthasmama, I joined NM with the same intentions as you, but couldn't understand either.

When I was in hospital having DS1 the menu of the day was:
Cheese and potato pie
Mashed potato
Chips on the side
Vegetable: mashed swede.

When I refused the chips the helper looked at me with scandalised reproach and said "you'll have a chip now - go on now - just a few chips to build you up after the baby."

They had obviously gone to the same School of Carbs as the netmums contributer.

Is mashed swede a vegetable then? I've often wondered what it was for...

Where is the op

Only posted on NetHuns for one evening on my break from here.

I stupidly thought that it would be a bit like here, people saying it as it is, bit of banter.

I was completely wrong, there didn't seem to be much in the way of discussion - just a lot of people agreeing!

oh, I lurve mashed swede and carrots....hmmmmm..
oh god...am I going to be asked to join netmums now....
oh, hang on I am a member there, and Babycentre, too , and Bounty and Raising Kids....never posted on netmums though, never got into Bounty, used to love Babycentre and still like Raising Kids....but to busy with mumsnet...

I wanna go trolling on Netmums but i'm too STUPID!!! Wahhhhhhh!

I wandered into netmums after hearing about it on mn, one glance at the coffee chat forum was enough to make me twirl away, grabbing my saggy norks running back to mn.

"But, if there are only those deemed worthy on this secret site - approx 50 at most.............god wouldn't it be boring? I mean what on earth do they talk about??"

I've often wondered just how dull Mouldies must be. I think, secretly, that a lot of them regret flouncing but are too embarrassed to admit it.

LOL at it's all very Opus Dei

Funny.

I thought it was masonic myself.

most of them havent flounced properly though from what i can see.... they've (mostly)changed their names and carried on posting.... which must be rather cutting off your nose to spite your face since no one will "know" who you are / your longstanding status etc...

i found it quite amusing to be blackballled

i didnt ask to join but i was apparently nominated, though when i found out i think i did chuckle and say no thank you

i cant imagine me on a site run by cod really can you?

Oh yes, the Coffeehouse!@webtastic. I'd forgotten about it. Bless. It conjures up images of polystyrene cups of Nescafe with coffee mate for me.

MN is more a 'large gin' kind of place.

Ah, I do miss fishface. We had a love hate relationship. And she brightened up Stule & Beauty with her Nora Batty-esque quirky fashion choices.

damn strike through when it fails!

ah yes... the school run dress saga.... the perfect raincoat epic.... etc etc.

....sooo... if all the moldies have gone, can we do the competition to see who has been on mumsnet the longest.

only becasue I might win this time!!!

...and I'm wasn't invited... not cool or trendy enough!

you might win, i joined in oct 2000 and am number 985 i think

I have never had to bother with the school-run dress saga. Living in Edinburgh means it rains 90% of the time.

I am continually obsessed with the decent rain coat epic.

Lou - do we get a number?

Cod does not run/own/maintain/organise/invite/do anything adminny at all on modlies.

i am 666

OK JUDITH!

you can get back to your sunbed...
