For tomorrow (10th June) - Happy Birthday Martianbishop

[Lucycat]

I realise that she is no longer a frequenter of this site, but this special lady got me back into camping with some great advice for our first tent. I think of her a lot and wonder how she's getting on... so wherever you are mb - Have a special day tomorrow. (I'm posting this now as I'm at work all day tomorrow)

and we also share a birthday

happy birthday to you too Lucy

Have a great day

Oh me too Lucycat - often think about MB as she posted a lot on the teaching threads too.

Happy Birthday Lucy too

Hope you and MB both have a great birthday tomorrow, Lucycat.

funny that, i was only thinking about her yesterday wondering how she was getting along. Wonder if she will pop in to say hi

Good wishes to you both. Still miss MB (she will remember me as sassy) and hope she is ok.

I was just thinking of her after seeing OJ's thread....

I was thinking about Martian the other day. If you are reading this MB I hope you and your lovely DCs are OK.

Happy birthday!

Oh and happy birtday LucyCat too!

hers is the only name I remember she was seriously one fab lady . I hope she has the best birthday ever .

i miss MB happy birthday if you do read this

How spooky - I was thinking about MB earlier after reading OJ's thread. Happy Birthday MB - you're much missed. Thanks Lucy - have a great day tomorrow .

Happy birthday Lucy!

And happy birthday to MB too. The worst thing about Those Who Must Not Be Mentioned is that we don't get to enjoy her wit.

BIWI it was the competitive sadding that made her leave here, do you remember the thread, about how widows were lucky compared to divorcees and she got such abuse, on here and by CAT, it was AWFUL

Happy birthday MB

Oh yes, I do remember it BALD - it was especially horrible as well as incomprehensible.

But I'm still sad that she isn't here any more.

message from martianbishop:

"Thank you so much for the kind comments. As people have mentioned I no longer post on MN, but someone kindly sent me a link to this thread. It is much appreciated that you are still wishing me well, I've very touched.

The kids and I are doing well. the kids are actually astonishing and give me great joy. I'm still camping. In fact we spent almost 6 weeks under canvas last year and will be spending another month this year.

Getting back to life has been hard, but in the end it really does go and and in time things get better. I was very brused when I left MN and sad that I was leaving a place that had given me, and DH so much support. But in the end I felt it was the only rational decision that I could make. And I still feel that it was the right one

MN has changed befond recognition. I'm glad that it is still giving support to people but my time on MN has come and gone. A natural thing I think.

Happy birthday Lucy, and best wishes to you all"

I was just thinking about MB too. Both after reading OJ's thread and strangely thinking about the Tom Cruise thread where she took her MB name from. MB, I remember you when you were HMB on the education boards. Always very grounded and helpful. I've written down many of your 'fun science' ideas for use as my DCs get older.

I was away when you left and missed all the nutjobs abusing you. I hope you and your DC are doing well. Good luck and I hope you are still teaching. We can't afford to lose colleagues like you.

Thanks for sending us a message MB. I am glad you are doing OK. I don't blame you for leaving MN, it was all very upsetting.

Enjoy your camping.
