Right that's it for Twiglett. I'm not having fun any more, there is little of interest and I'm getting wound up by things I'm not sure I really care up so it's time for me to bid a fond adieu

[Twiglett]

Bye

and thanks for all the fish!

It is evolving which maybe a good thing. I keep wondering if there is somewhere like the mumsnet of a few years ago. In a roundabout way the case of she who will not be named has killed of mumsnet as it was without shutting it down.

Actually, though it's not Twiglett that is doing that, at least but subsequent posters. So I Twig I apologise in your abscence, but to the others the sentiment still stands.

She isn't devaluing it, she is acknowledging that in the past it was great and now has changed.

see my post of 12.23

.

You know what, if there is little of interest, then post something yourself. I think it's quite insulting to say you're going because your old friends have left and us newbies aren't entertaining enough for you. It's a pretty crap reason to flounce. I know that's not what you've said but reading between the lines I'm guessing that's what you mean.

Oh ignore me, I'm tired and pissed off generally. Good luck

That's a shame Twig, I hope you come back. At least for your birthday.

MN is getting so depressing with people leaving. Cod and Fabio going upset everyone. It has stopped being fun Maybe it is time to find something else to do.

Take care twiglett.

Can't say I blame you, Twig.

But I also know how to get hold of you off the board .

Hope it works out to be just a break. Having one myself here soon for obvious reasons.

But I can see why you're offski for a bit.

Enjoy some RL. Sending you a cyber bottle of Riesling.

'It has stopped being fun Maybe it is time to find something else to do.'

There is truth in that. A lot of folks taking themsevles way seriously and as a result taking every post very seriously so it's harder to have a patter sometimes.

Nature of the beast, I guess.

Twiglett has not gone.

She is having a cup of coffee/tea, sat looking at other stuff online/shopping/housework/playing with children/whatever, and is probably every 5-10 minutes pressing 'refresh' to see how missed she will be

Flouncing always strikes me as a way of checking out popular you might be .

But but Twig ... what about and [wino]?

This has made me feel

I still think it's interesting if you talk about subjects other than... MN.

I don't understand why people have to make a point of leaving? Why not just stop posting as often if you have nothing to add/say? Its just a forum, not rl and who really cares? Those who do will prob have your phone number/ email anyway.

How can anyone leave when they have given us hats??

Twiglet - you can't go.

You are funny.

You must stay for my amusement!

It is a bit dull on here at the mo to be honest - and I am not an oldie - just on here a year or so.

The thing was that banter used to be bitchy and funny. Mostly now it is just bitchy.

I am going away too for a while - not flouncing , just hols.

Please come back Twig. If all the good ones go it just makes it even dull , until it is the dullerest..

Back in a week.
[waving emoticon]

She will be back.

But listen: Just because a few big name posters have fucked off, it doth not mean that MN will become a place of huggery and buggery (I mean in the 3 or 4 wheel sense) There are plenty of other non-hun, articulate and witty fuckers on here you know.

Och - Bye twiggers, you have been kind to me under my other name in the past - me remembers these things Take care xx

name one sheiky
