It does tend to be true though. As for whether envy should be a sin it certainly doesn't make people very happy and if instead they can be content with what they have they might have more internal peace.

Well, whether rich or poor or in-between they come across as patronising, narrow minded and fundamentally unlikeable.

It's just a marketing wheeze to get people to buy their stuff which may or may not work (I haven't seen their accounts to check if it does)

Zombie thread...Hmm

poorbuthappy · 24/06/2014 16:32

It's more telling that they are trawling the internet looking for themselves.
I'm sure there's been more recent threads about them!!! Grin

RaptorInaPorkPieHat · 24/06/2014 16:33

you've got to love that Charlie has bumped up a 4 year old thread just to point out that Mumsnet is jealous Grin

In the words of my teenager "Epic Fail"

divingoffthebalcony · 24/06/2014 16:38

Haha, there was me thinking "Why on earth has this four year old thread been bumped?"

Ah, someone's been Googling themselves today, then.

QuizzicalCat · 24/06/2014 16:40

Hahaha! Idiot.

More like someone is after free publicity!

enormouse · 24/06/2014 17:09

IrianofWay · 24/06/2014 17:15

Ooh thanks for the reminder. I have a garage full of unwanted tatl Note to self: car boot on saturday.

ssd · 24/06/2014 17:16

business a bit slow then charlie?

NotYouNaanBread · 24/06/2014 17:17

I don't really see the problem. It's a brand like any other, and it sells a certain lifestyle.

He follows me on Instagram though, and "likes" pictures of my baking/children/random shit, so I'm quite forgiving. :)

DenzelWashington · 24/06/2014 17:21

Dignity, charlie, always dignity.

softlysoftly · 24/06/2014 17:24

Im confused? Someone has googled a 4 year old thread slagging them off and then bumped it.

How is that good for business Confused

PedlarsSpanner · 24/06/2014 17:24

Hurhur

Viviennemary · 24/06/2014 17:29

Didn't realise it was an ancient thread. Still if people can get rich from selling neon lidded jars then good luck to them. It's called enterprise!

ChazsBrilliantAttitude · 24/06/2014 17:30

But Charlie this isn't a Mumsnet Thread (price 1.99) its a Vintage Exposition of the Collective Thought Processes of a Virtual Community (price 327.47 + VAT).

PedlarsSpanner · 24/06/2014 17:35

I wish there was a cached page of The Spanner, we chortled like mad

DenzelWashington · 24/06/2014 17:39

My husband really wanted that spanner. Enough to pay full price for it apparently. I had to Put My Foot Down.

Elsiequadrille · 24/06/2014 17:40

Somebody always posts the 'I saw you Coming' clip on a Pedlars thread.Grin I wonder why

ChazsBrilliantAttitude · 24/06/2014 17:42

I found the old spanner thread. I'd forgotten how much it cost. Wasn't if from an old Michelin factory or similar
