The kiddies sacks are full, all the grand parents are accounted for, We even have a pile for our naughty pony...but what’s on all the very deserving and hardworking mummys list!?

Here’s mine...

Dear Santa,

I have been a very good girl this year, I have looked after 3 kids near enough single handedly as DH has either been deployed or working away and I haven’t killed a single one...I even held my s%@& when my youngest tried to shower the cat...

I would like...

The beautiful Mismosa necklace, that is ridiculously expensive and that my husband keeps on avoiding all the flying bricks about that keep coming his way!!
A Strong Girls Club tshirt (I think I deserve it!!)
A Duallly halter for the really REALLY bad pony
A vast amount of gin...

Kind Regards

The only thing I've asked for this year is a beautiful wooden sewing box for my growing mountain of coloured thread. Its very inexpensive and its in the shop literally round the corner from us so I'm reallyyyyy hopeful... Blush

My ds1 who's 12 has saved all his birthday money from last month and has brought me something from Pandora.

It's the first time ethier of my children have thought to get me something. He came up to me and told me he wanted to buy me something nice from Pandora as I get them loads and he doesn't need anything so could he spend his money on a gift. The asked me to sit down with him and looked at the website and asked me to point out what things I liked so he could pick and it still be a surprise. He then phoned my mum tonasknfor a lift to town so he could get it.

I don't care if it's the tackiest ugliest thing ever ( I'm v picky with what I like there) it's going to be my favourite thing in the world and he made my heart melt.

Please stop calling yourself "mummy" and saying stuff like "kiddies". Thank you.

I miss Scottish Sad

JamesFrancosDryCleaner · 20/12/2017 02:04

Oooh.

I would like some Disoronno, some big fluffy slipper boots, a good book, a really lovely smelly candle, an MP3 player and a big cheeseboard Grin

DP replaced our sofa last week. Yesterday, he told me that was my Christmas present Hmm

WeirdCatLady · 20/12/2017 08:14

Like Battleax I’m struggling to get past ‘Mummy’s’ and ‘kiddies’ 🤮

Wow....

Battlax someone’s clearly on the naughty list!!!!...

Last time I checked there wasn’t any mumsnet rules as to how I word my posts therefore after some deep consideration think you can probably go and stick it!!

Now if you will excuse me I need to go and get my kiddies some breakfast! 😘

snausage don't let him sit on your sofas.

Just when I was half regretting being so tipsily honest Smile

I'm sorry but I'm going to puke now 😮🤢

(Why is it you can get the plural of "kiddy" right but not the plural of "mummy"?)

Mehfruittea · 20/12/2017 08:35

I’ve booked in a 120 item ironing job with a local lady, to be done by Sat as my Christmas present. Also happy to support local small business at the same time. I’m so happy I won’t have to think about ironing for a while!!

Battleax of you go and puke then and move on...

What a delight you sound to be around at Christmas!! 🙄

I have NO IDEA. Mr LBOCS has bought me some lovely jumpers (of my choice), and various other bits and pieces. DDad has been asking me for weeks what I want and I have NO IDEA. It's a problem.

(I do appreciate that I'm extremely lucky that there's nothing I need or even particularly want. It's a first world problem).

RJnomore1 · 20/12/2017 08:41

Trying to imagine a world where ironing would be a Christmas present to me.

Failing.

Op it's fine to swear on here. You can say shit.

SHIT

Ahhh Mehfruitta that sounds like an awesome present...

Imagine have an empty ironing bag for Christmas....that’s the stuff dreams are made off!!

Too late sorry. I threw up right in the thread. I didn't mean to. It was the "naughty list" tweeness that just turned my stomach. You don't expect mis-spelt twee from MN, so I wasn't braced. I'll try not to get taken unawares again 😷

And RJ's completely fucking right about the swearing, you know 😉

Don't worry, you can be cured 😄

notonmynelly · 20/12/2017 08:46

Doesn't she just! Going around dictating which words people are allowed and not allowed to use. Merry Christmas!! Or shall I say crimbo as that's probably on the banned list too.

FiveGoMadInDorset · 20/12/2017 08:48

I am with Battleax

i am just off to buy mine

Shit, fuck, cunt, wankbadger, MN's saving grace is it allows swearing.

Sadly also has a tolerance policy on multiple !!! (nd misplaced .Apostrophe's)
