The Christmas Chat

[slng]

Oooo!!! I get to start a new thread!!!

Hope you find me!

Good morning all!

Poor minisfx!

I'm bored. CNY is supposed to be at least one whole week's holiday with too much food and too much noise. Ho Hum. Best get some work done, I guess.

I like the idea of a week long celebration with assorted delicious dishes but perhaps not at this very moment

PLEASE SPONSOR ME!!! xxx

oh my giddy aunt what happened to mumsnet? I feel lost not sure it is good to confuse a person of my advancing years!

I really like it!!

it will take time to get used to it can't find stuff

btw I am in the Guardian today oh the lefty fame

fame sfx - must get it! Or is the article on-line.

Will try and sponsor you auntie when I can get on the pc at home as work goes via German and barclays can't translate the transactions!

Gosh this is awful isn't it? I've got a headache already. I've a feeling my MN-ing days are over.

Eeeek! What is going on?

think am warming up to it as it seems clean, my ad filter is great zero adverts zero pop ups
the only thing I find hard is that on active convos I can't immediately see the threads I have clicked on, they used to change colour

best get a life

mrsR it is just a quote on the mumsnet article and not a very good one at that

Oooh will have a look SFX - which section/page?

MrsR - thanks for agreeing to sponsor - full details are on the link. Cheers

Will anyone else sponsor me???

BTW did someone have a keyboard they don't want - a work colleague is desperate for a keyboard, as her DCs need one?

Oh, new look

Sfx - what's your claim to fame then?

Auntie - will sponsor you but later as I'm about to head out to collect DS1

Slng/Mellow - Happy CNY to you both

I may have worked out why DS2 has recently become fussy and difficult to settle, in addition to AB's & cold he had, yesterday I spotted the start if teeth , aaaarrrghhh

SJ actually one of the June babies when dd was born was practically born with teeth

and [[http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2009/jan/30/family fame]

auntie will sponsor at some point but it is not until March is that right?
dh was telling me what has been going on in children services last week and it is all very sad and sadly very much the same

oops fame

oh my sj - teeth alreaady indeed.

sfx brilliant - will you get royalties (ok I know that's a whole new thread!!)?

SFX - thanks for the link, that really made me LOL and cheered up my day!!

SFX/Seema - thanks for agreeing to sponsor me. Yes its 17 March, but be warned I will be sending out reminders at some point. You can leave your name when you donate, but if you do not want to leave your name its an idea to let me know its been done, so I don't make the mistake of annoying you with one of the "hurry...only one week left to donate" e-mails I am planning (sniggers...)

Am planning a FB campaign and a "fleecing work colleagues" campaign as I am determined to raise as much for the NSPCC between now and St Patricks Day

Mr Dishy Dentist has agreed to sponsor me and I have even e-mailed my priest (is there a "shameless" emoticon?)

Ohh SFX, may I have your autograph

Cannot cope with this new layout at all! Not good adjusting to change

Took me ten mins to find you all!

I'm not sure I like the new design. I certainly don't like the new font type. Arial is just so boring. I wonder if I can change it.

Thanks SJ. 1st day of CNY was on Monday (celebrations go on for 15 days) but many people think it's this weekend as the Chinese New Year events in Chinatown dont' start till the weekend.

PC,
I feel the same about the changes. I'm definitely going to create my own style sheet for the site.

Mellow - are you going to any of the CNY celebrations? There will be lion dance at Lung Fung in Alperton but I think it would be disastrous if I take the kids who are scared even of youtube video lion dances ...

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!

will finally be free tomorrow terrible cabin fever being indoors since tuesday

off to hairdresser in the morning and perhaps a little shopping too

btw dh and dd are supposed to be baking me a cake dd's suggestion 'I will do a Barack Obama cake'

-and what is that?

• a delicious cake with his face on it, you will like it mummy

SFX I think a lot of women would find that delicious

Mellow thanks for sponsoring me

Auntie Will try and sponsor you this weekend. I had a dream about you last night - you were expecting your 4th!
