i'm eternally grateful to whoever told us all about how gorgeous Waitrose Easter treats are.

thank you for making our Easter so special.

DH scored us up some Waitrose today, and he didn't even violate my no white chocolate rule!

and whoever it was who ruined parmesan cheese for me - one of the few cheeses i could eat - by saying it looked and smelled like sick: FUCK YOU .

VeniVidiVickiQV · 16/03/2008 20:52

Well, she has lots in RL to be getting on with, and her blog of course. Working full time makes it tough too.

But, also, because of threads just like this Caz. She's borne the brunt of some pretty shite comments and threads over the last few months - largely because of her passion in helping parents with feeding their babies makes folk feel she's an easy target, or, some sort of sleb and therefore fair game for making potshots at. Basically, the same sorta thing Cod has been on the receiving end of for some time

TheHonEnid · 16/03/2008 20:52

katierocket can you give me your email and i'll send it on

yes, as I said about 300 posts ago, it was buried in the middle of the magazine. I read the paper on Saturday and didn't see it!

Oliveoil · 16/03/2008 20:54

it can only be printed out 5 times and am not sure how many times it has been printed

but yes, pass away

only to regulars though...[sneer]

TheHonEnid · 16/03/2008 20:55

chin up old gel

thats no way for a plucky feminist to behave

Oliveoil · 16/03/2008 20:55

Germaine - are you cod?

should kknow by the typing really but anyway, ignore all the sniping and go off and read Rod Liddle

and now I am off too

SheikYerboutisEggHunt · 16/03/2008 20:55

I couldn;t give a fuck about the list

We are going round in circles

Now MKVE ON there's nothing to see here

foxinsocks · 16/03/2008 20:56

lol cod. You've made enid and I go all manly ffs.

Caz10 · 16/03/2008 20:56

well maybe i am missing something here but that seems like a shame.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 16/03/2008 20:56

Yep she's definitely gone. And definitely can't come back it's been prevented.

HonEnid - I didnt say you specifically had said x y and z. I was addressing the general nature of your, soapy and www's post in one go. You did say that you thought the list was unrepresentative and plain wrong though.

I beg to differ that it was unrepresentative, that's all. It's very representative of my MN experience. I think I am allowed to say that.

And I'm quite at your sneering about Hunker going.

expatinscotland · 16/03/2008 20:57

Face up, you folks what are kicking off about this list.

Yer just jealous!

Caz10 · 16/03/2008 20:57

expatinscotland · 16/03/2008 20:57

Who's gone?! WTF?!

Cam · 16/03/2008 20:57

VeniVidiVickiQV · 16/03/2008 20:58

Cod - she has had her leaving regulated. She cant come back. Well, not as HunkerMunker anyway

themildmanneredbunny · 16/03/2008 20:58

but vv-hunker does go quite frequently. even you must admit this.
even her profile in the paper mentions it!

SheikYerboutisEggHunt · 16/03/2008 20:58

I flounced once and was back within an hour

Ledodgy · 16/03/2008 20:59
