Still went to the scrap store last night, and got loads of sticky bits so going to put loadson the kitchen table and just let them go for it this morning.

Oi! You people who call yourself friends on my Facebook! I've got a fish tank ready and waiting for fish and no bugger has bought me any yet!

I don't know, I feed Kbears fish, I answer calls for help about puke and the removal of the after-smell, do my best to be in the staff room as early as poss, so the early risers amongst us aren't lonely. All I want is fish, but noooo....

maureen - unfortunately I dont live in the posh part of SW London, I live in Merton, It's practically Colliers Wood or Collywood as I like to call it

Mo - sure you said you were't good at looking after other creatures.....don't you accidentally kill them? Sorry.....not putting poor fish in your tank!!! (actually, I don't have one so don't know how to send)

MaureenMLove · 14/11/2007 19:53

Oh don't, my neighbours have just bought hamsters! I'm dreading them going away next year. In fact, so are they, the littliest one (7yr old) asked Kbear if she could look after them instead of me!

You go to my page and it says 'feed me fish'.

MaureenMLove · 14/11/2007 19:55

Oh, no fish to feed is there! I think it says 'give me a fish' somewhere! I'm not very good at this am I? Can you tell I'm old?

StrawberryMartini · 14/11/2007 19:56

Maureen have you told Ofsted about your imminent fish?

MaureenMLove · 14/11/2007 20:06

Of course! I sent them a virtual up yours!

fruitloop79 · 14/11/2007 20:10

so are you all facebookers too?

looneytune · 14/11/2007 20:10

You now have lots of fish and I fed them - look after them!!!

Now send me some - I've just added the application!

StrawberryMartini · 14/11/2007 20:16

Oh I'm so bored of facebook! I don't think I've even logged on for weeks. However I wouldn't have met Looney or become addicted to MN had I not joined!

fruitloop79 · 14/11/2007 20:19

I found mumsnet through a group on FB. I thought it was just for buying and selling stuff!
Yeah FB can get a little boring but always nice to have a nose at who's doing what. Can't stand all those poker/warewolves/pirate applications that drives me insane!

MaureenMLove · 14/11/2007 20:19

Will do! Fanks!

Fruitloop, are you new to MN or just a lurker? Have you seen the Hamster/Ofsted thread? Its hilarious!

I'm brand new to Facebook, I felt I should get with the prgramme, find out what all the fuss was about. I'm quite chuffed that I've got Facebook and DD hasn't! She's 12 and laughs at me when I don't know how to use my mobile phone properly. I have 4 friends. One is my rl friend, the other are from the staff room! I've been racking my brains all day for some rl friends! My Ozzy mate should be on over night. Gosh that'll make 5! Looney's sooo popular, she's got loads!

fruitloop79 · 14/11/2007 20:21

I'm brand new to this mumsnet gubbins. It's nice to meet some more childminders!

fruitloop79 · 14/11/2007 20:22

i'll check out the hamster/ofsted thingie......

fruitloop79 · 14/11/2007 20:29

ok, how do i find it? it's just so complicated - I can do smileys though

looneytune · 14/11/2007 20:32

Fruitloop - it wasn't the 'Fed up with Ofsted' group was it?

fruitloop79 · 14/11/2007 20:35

something like that, I didnt join though. why is that ur group loony?

looneytune · 14/11/2007 20:36

Might be

looneytune · 14/11/2007 20:36

And then OFSTED bloody set me up and sent me a complaint about my childminding!

MaureenMLove · 14/11/2007 20:37

I'll find it for you! I've filled your fish tank Looney and nicked your advent calendar idea too!

fruitloop79 · 14/11/2007 20:37

ahhhh. So that's you!

fruitloop79 · 14/11/2007 20:39

Ooooh It's an 'exclusive' group! Well I've requested to join

MaureenMLove · 14/11/2007 20:40

Here it is!

It would have been tricky to look for tbh!

looneytune · 14/11/2007 20:41

It stopped being an open group after I received my nonsense complaint!!

I will accept you
