Kerry Katona?

augustusglupe · 12/11/2022 01:54

I think Kerry too

wheelywheelynice · 12/11/2022 02:03

Isn't famous celebrity tautological?

JaneJeffer · 12/11/2022 02:15

No, dentist @wheelywheelynice

Am loving the humour on this thread. And I also hope that Nigel The Dentist finds it one day.

Will be keeping an eye out for announcements of celebrity deaths and seeing if I can find evidence of their early Christmas lights.

I met a celebrity once. It was at a summer bbq so, sadly, I have no idea what their Christmas lights were like.

I always thought (according to MN) that a last hoorah was when you were perimenopausal & your ovaries go haywire, so you want to shag anyone & anything senseless because your hormones want you pregnant?

So could be a celeb about to have a baby?
Talking of celeb's Anne Robinson's daughter used to live in my home village. She didn't put any Christmas lights up just new snatch (cottage renovations)

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 12/11/2022 02:57

Thatch as in thatched roof not snatch 🤦‍♀️
I must have sex on the brain but I'm not perimenopausal yet.

We just had Samheim. Yule needs to wait its turn.

Used to live near dev from Coro.went to the same gym.

Hey, sorry to go off topic from Nigel's endeavours but how much is it for a full size poster in a chippie these days ?

AlwaysCleanYourHatBeforeGivingItToADentist · 12/11/2022 06:02

@theyarereallytakingthepissnow the poster has never been explained. The shop is a bit dodgy so not the place I'd imagine either of the Nigel's frequenting. Nige the dentist in particular seems too sophisticated.

I queued for almost an hour so my best friend could talk to The Cheeky Girls once. Then someone was mean to them so they walked out before we got anywhere near. My friend was fuming and sulked for the rest of the evening. That's as close as I've got to a celebrity.

I always thought they were Spanish but they are Romanian so I can add that to my "things I learned from this thread" list.

AlwaysCleanYourHatBeforeGivingItToADentist · 12/11/2022 06:05

@theyarereallytakingthepissnow about £50 but if he's shorter than 6'3" they'll shrint him to fit in their machines.

I live very close to an UNfamous celebrity...

They're rarer.

I am an unfamous celebrity.

Colleen Nolan jumped straight into my head.
Are you in Cheshire at least?

BigSandyBalls2015 · 12/11/2022 06:47

Claire Sweeney has put her decs up 🤷🏼‍♀️

forgotmyusername1 · 12/11/2022 06:56

If we are doing celeb boasts i played cards with emily blunt a few times.

Have met a few famous people (jay kay, rowan atkinson, jeremy clarkson, stirling moss, jenson button, h from steps, Patricia routledge, vanessa redgrave, patrick stewart... think that was it)

I used to work in the green room at chichester festival theatre and also waitressed at lord march's parties for festival of speed and goodwood revival. Emily blunt was juliet in romeo and juliet and between the matinee and evening show we played cards a couple of times as she was bored and i was a crap employee)

Crikey,I was trying to lift the general doom and gloom on Mumsnet.
People obviously having a rubbish evening 😳
Sorry my post has upset you all so much ..enjoy your weekend 😊

I despair at this page lately. I’m sure the lights look lovely. I am dying to put mine up, I am not a massive Christmas fan, but I love the twinkly lights brightening the house up. Though this year they are going on an hour less!

KnittingAuntie · 12/11/2022 07:02

I haven't got a famous neighbour. However I have had an infamous one. Don't suppose for one second that he's got access to Christmas lights as he's residing in one of HM hotels but would be delighted to hear that he's having a last hoorah .- good riddance . . . .

Kitkatcatflap · 12/11/2022 07:03

Got to be David Walliams - last hurrah before his arse is fired.

Dear Neighbours

You’ll have noticed my Santa illuminations are having a year off - but fear not, I’m still celebrating with a different kind of Christmas twinkle!! Mum’s given me the name of her favourite Harley Street surgeon so that I can get my cosy “cottage” renovated, if you know what I mean!! Lol!! Not getting any younger, so gotta make the most of my last hormonal hoorah. Rocking Rudolph and his sparkling sleigh will be back after the energy crisis.

Jingle bells to you all!

Ivyonafence · 12/11/2022 07:25

Are there non-famous celebrities?

Not sure why it's relevant that she is famous, but her lights sound lovely.

Wouldn't have put them up today though.

CatWorm · 12/11/2022 08:05

I need to know why it’s a last hoorah!? Come back OP, do you know something we don’t?
