[Mrsmadevans]

Welcome to the first thread for the 2019 Christmas countdown m'dears

Afternoon everyone 😀
What have you all been getting up to?
Acey don't be daft just tone it down a bit about Addie you nit 😃
Crazy hope you are feeling better today 😘 l am so sorry, it is all good though if it helps you
I don't know what happened to this thread but it seems like it has been inundated with several ppl all of whom are pregnant, have many DC and call them by old. Fashioned names. Now l love new ppl joining us but there has been a lot of them all of a sudden and not everyone is totally believable. Now l will tell you that l know a lot of people here and known them for couple of years now and I know we are not fools. Of course if you want to join us then welcome but please don't troll us. It means we can't trust anyone . So after all that shall we just start anew everyone? Wheelie l do not include you before you get upset sweetie, also thank you for the reassuring post re my maybe going NC with my DSis. It will take me a lot to be able to do that but l know it is for the best for me, l am not sure l will be able to be that strong😫😪
Let's just be happy everyone 😀

Philomena - that sounds brilliant, I hope they have a fab time! I’m very jealous haha it sounds like so much fun!

Mrs - I’m not going to bring up Addie or my pregnancy because either way, I’m going to unintentionally upset someone or be accused of being insensitive and nasty. I will however post about mav and Xmas. That is the last I’m saying on the matter.
There has been a lot of new people on the thread, I’m not sure if that’s normal or not as I only joined quite late on last year!
Not including you wheelie - you are awesome

I've always been useless at spotting trolls. Have they gone Mrs?

Psb That does sound fun! My kid's want to go to the Children's Museum soon so I think we might make a day of it for their birthdays

Mrs It's very very hard to go NC with someone, especially someone that you have to see regularly because you are caring for your parents. We've got a few family members we've gone NC with ourselves. My husband's brother actually sounds a lot like your Dsis.

Irish I'm glad you are back! I'm still new to MN myself so this is kind of the only place I am really hanging out haha. My other forum I was on closed so I had to find somewhere to go

Very cowardly who ever pmd acey, report them acey to Mumsnet . This won't be tolerated

Wheelie - I am back and happy about it this is the only thread I go on too haha.

I was going to post a pic of Mav balancing on all our wrapping paper we bought for this year but I can’t as it’s a new account haha. It’s a grand photo, I’ll upload it when mumsnet lets me

Mrs are you talking about me when saying that there’s new people to this thread who call their kids old fashioned names?. I can assure you I’m not a troll.

Cathy - have things calmed down now? I can’t believe the cheek of Your SIL! I hope you are well and the girls are back to full health

Acey SIL has left Thank fully! I’m sure it won’t be the end of this though. And yeah we are doing much better, thank you so much!. I’m glad you’re back, was going to miss you.

Acey!

Cathy - phew that’s good that she’s left! I’m glad your DH stood up for you too, he sounds lovely! Good I’m glad you’re all doing better! Aww thank you, and thank you for your concern earlier, I truly do appreciate it
I’m definitely not going anywhere

Philomena - hugs back

Acey he is lovely, does get right on my nerves some days though!. We’ve just been to get the pushchair for the babies! I’m in love. I can’t believe I’ll be pushing two babies in this.

That's lovely Cathy!

Cathy - haha aye that’s to be expected though oh wow that’s so stylish, I love it! It’s a thing of beauty plus, if SIL turns up unannounced you can run her down with it haha!

Thank you both, there’s one of them things that the girls’ can stand on (completely forgot the name, if there even is one) but it’ll make it easier because I can get Darcie and the twins on that when taking June to school.

Acey you’ve got me in tears! I could definitely pretend I was giving it a test drive and run over her foot with it😂.

Acey, you're being a drama queen about this in an attempt to cause ruction and division on this thread. You were simply asked to tone it down and show some sensitivity towards others who a) may be struggling to get pregnant and b) don't want spamming with baby stuff all of the time.

Hence approaching you, adult to adult, and asking you nicely. You've deliberately misconstrued it to cause drama, which is ridiculous.

And to Bertie, you don't report insensitivity, you ask the person to tone it down, which is what happened.

And I'm not fucking off anywhere either, thanks all the same, PSB. I'm allowed here as much as Acey, who actually HASN'T been told to fuck off.

I wanted to keep it private to save bringing it to absolutely everyone's attention as, believe it or not, it's a sensitive subject, hence asking you for sensitivity.

However, you've caused drama and made it about you, rather than just toning it down a touch, which is all that was asked.

I make no apologies for asking you to tone it down at all.

And we've been drowning in trolls recently, it has to be said. God knows why.

Cathy - is that the buggy board thing? I’m sure I remember something like that, or I could just be making it up my god it will be like a Military operation leaving your house, I’m in awe of how you do it haha.

It’s true though ‘whoops just trying to get used to the logistics and manoeuvring’ as you smash into her legs again 😂

Acey That’s the name!. It’s not too bad really, I just have to get up wayyyy before we need to leave. I’m sure twins will make it much harder though, at least I’ll have this thread to come and vent to!.

Fluffy - grow up and leave me alone! I’m not the one causing drama or sending snotty messages to other people! I never said you told me to fuck off 😂 I have wholeheartedly apologised to the people who I may have offended with all my baby posts and have accepted responsibility for the way my posts may have upset people. I have in no way tried to cause division, I haven’t even mentioned you. You are the one bringing my name publicly into it!
I have said all I have to say on the matter, I’m staying on here just as much as you are welcome to, but I have nothing left to say to you.

Cathy - yay I remembered it correctly! I wasn’t sure if I had completely made up the name or not 😂🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m just imagining you up at midnight beginning the prep so you can leave the house on the school run haha! Lord knows how you do it but I applaud you

I didn't know it was you Fluffy, I apologise unreservedly, I was worried about Acey. Some people are quite thin-skinned, and she seemed very upset. She's very young compared to me, so maybe I was overprotective.

Acey It rings a bell with me anyway, unless we’ve both just made it up!. We’ve only had to do the school run this year as June only just started, Darcie only goes to nursery part time as well so it isn’t too bad. I’m just dreading 5 years time when they’ll all be in school!

So, do you guys run this thread all year then?

Cathy - I’ve just googled it and it is called a buggy board, so we definitely aren’t making it up
Oh blimey that will be a military operation then! You’ll cope with it though
