I havent read the threads in question but the principle isnt too different to MNers going over to netmums in the past to cause trouble.

I have no problem with most of it, however some of the mums on here are quite vulnerable so I would hope that anyone properly offended has been apologised to.

I also see that one of them has donated £50 to one of the MNers justgiving pages which is great.

I reckon that a few of them will name change and stay on anyway as this is a good site. (better than theirs)

There were several donations from both sides on two funds

Worth repeating this link

Another worth repeating link

Including a whopping £100 from one very generous CUKer

JustMyTwoPenceWorth · 01/04/2010 09:47

Aw. Did I miss it all again? grr. The invasion AND the spanking

I tell you, I am going to have to let the kids become totally feral.

StayingDavidTennantsGirl · 01/04/2010 09:49

Lol @ keeping them like tamagotchis.

Pitterpatter - CUK is an IT contractors' forum, who had a spring 'holiday' raid to mumsnet. Here's the thread over there that started it all off.

EVye · 01/04/2010 10:19

Actually I just went over to their forum and saw a comment about from one of them claiming their donation on expenses.

I take back my earlier generous comments.

Knobs.

Unless they were joking (hopeful) and my previous comment stands.

Didnt see the 'raid', but after clicking on above link, they do sound a bit up their own arses.

SheepInWolfsClothing · 01/04/2010 10:30

Claiming something on expenses simply means we don't pay tax on the income. So for example a £100 donation offset against tax means we pay £40 less tax at the end of the year.

If we didn't give it to you it would only get wasted on gadgetry

EVye · 01/04/2010 10:34

Fair enough. Well done on quick response.

I think you are hooked

claw3 · 01/04/2010 10:36

Are they grown men or school boys?

SheepInWolfsClothing · 01/04/2010 10:38

All grown men are actually schoolboys inside. I thought this was well known.

ToccataAndFudge · 01/04/2010 10:40

I think some of them are hooked too - I mean they've been "outed", they've repented with sponsorship and all that and they're STILL here

claw3 · 01/04/2010 10:47

Oh right you are training to be men.

AMumInScotland · 01/04/2010 10:47

We should rename this place from Mumsnet to Hotel California..... I only popped in to answer one question about 3 years ago.... We'll find them sleeping on the sofa next.

"How nice that they decided to pick my thread to start thjeir invasion"

I thought FioFio was one of us actually!

CountessDracula · 01/04/2010 11:10

No Fio is a spy

Poledra · 01/04/2010 11:25

Yes chocolate would be very nice.

nappyzoneloveslindor · 01/04/2010 11:29

or just stick the chocolate up your arse.

Silver1 · 01/04/2010 11:36

Don't you think they have been punished enough- the fallout on their forum was like a bush fire

claw3 · 01/04/2010 11:40

Aw bless, just read their 'raid' is an annual event that they organise.

Now thats funny.

ChickensHaveSinisterMotives · 01/04/2010 11:40

Where did the eggs come from?!

ToccataAndFudge · 01/04/2010 11:41

they were rather cute bunnies and tech has swapped them for eggs - I really do prefer chocolate to eggs

ToccataAndFudge · 01/04/2010 11:41

no - he's swapped it to biscuits now pmls
