Cool it Cod I didn't even know you were talking about j of the p's I was just rereading her piece and thinking that was strange,

Relax.

Blandmum · 15/03/2008 13:28

BoysOnToast · 15/03/2008 13:28

My post was not directed at you, though I do see now from further posts that you are a magistrate.

WideWebWitch · 15/03/2008 13:29

Good post Soapbox, obv I agree as I'm named

Btw, Cod as rampant feminist? I think not - surely you don't describe yourself as that do you Cod? You're a lot of things but that isn't one of them iirc

foxinsocks · 15/03/2008 13:29

Flamesparrow · 15/03/2008 13:31

Oi, BOYS - thread for you in chat

BoysOnToast · 15/03/2008 13:31

BoysOnToast · 15/03/2008 13:31

ooh! wanted!

morningpaper · 15/03/2008 13:32

blimey this is getting a LOT of dissection

Believe me, it is about 10000% more accurate and researched journalism than most of the stuff 'out there'

ah, that was probably my fault, i mentioned tamum because i was saying you could access very brainy help on here wrt specific subjects and that pooling professional as well as parenting expertise was at the heart of MN etc etc.

ZippiBabes · 15/03/2008 13:34

MrsMattie · 15/03/2008 13:34

Monkeybird · 15/03/2008 13:44

see, , were I a journo and known for my self-publicism, I'd have included meself in my list of Great MNers we have know. Which means that CM is, in fact, one of Cod/LL/Aitch/HM...

No?

QueenTaLcY · 15/03/2008 13:45

dizzydixies · 15/03/2008 13:46

my dh has declared himself a mumsnet widower and he kids mumsnet orphans lol

Aitch · 15/03/2008 13:46

oh god no, all us miserable doom-mongering ectopickers need to be on constant alert for those awful threads when people say 'i've had a wee bit of bleeding but my GP has checked my cervix and says it's fine'. stupid arseholes.
did that girl with the bad symptoms about a fortnight ago ever come back? i hope that it was okay but she was ticking about every box...

Tutter · 15/03/2008 13:48

no aitch, she didn't i even popped over to the ept site and looked on the main board to see if i could spot anything, but no

Aitch · 15/03/2008 13:49

fuck. i hope that she's okay.

FrannyandZooey · 15/03/2008 13:56
