Have you made friends with any mumsnetter?

I wondered if anyone (besides me!) had made some friends .... i.e. e-mailing regularely (as maybe you are too far to meet face to face), sending piccies and stuff to each other.... via Mumsnet.
I can confess to having made 1 good friend and having contacts with another 4 on a fairly regular basis.... I won't say who they are unless they want too of course !

Am I alone ?

Mears- I don't think it should be a secret
I didn't reveal who my mumsnet friends are because I don't want to do it without their consent.... but if anyone knows they are mumsnet friend.... please feel free to say

....who knows it might be interesting

I have made some very good friends on here, and I look forward to meeting some more
I have never been to a meet-up but will one day.

myersthecat · 29/09/2003 16:01

I haven't yet!

Perhaps I should have stayed in NW London, seems to be more of you guys up there! Does anyone live in the Portsmouth/Southampton area?

Having said that, for most of the time I've been on mumsnet, life has been a little chaotic! (all of 2 months max!)

maomao · 29/09/2003 16:09

myersthecat,

I must admit that my heart leapt when I saw "NW London," and then dropped when I'd realised you'd moved. Where in NW London were you? Do you have a dear darling child, and if so, what age?

fio2 · 29/09/2003 16:47

I have made some email friends and I have only been on here a few months. I am always taken back how kind and thoughtful (and brutally honest sometimes) people are on mumsnet. I think I would be quite embarrassed to go to a meet up, I am not that out going really

Is it me or does everyone else 'say' things on mumsnet that they would never dream of saying in real life?

Bossanova · 29/09/2003 16:48

I do myersthecat, in between the two.

Janstar · 29/09/2003 16:52

maomao, where do you live?

maomao · 29/09/2003 17:07

Janstar,

I'm in Hampstead. It's lovely, but, in terms of rent, we're living beyond our means and have to cut back in other ways. We'll have to find another flat come February (sigh)....

How about you?

Beetroot.... I remember you and your old nickname
I think in ALL my contacts... it was me who iniated it ! Or said to the mumsnetter to get in touch with me if she wanted to (to get info or so) and most of the time they did/do!

You and I sat on same side of fence on vacination - I remember

chairperson is still with us isn't she - with a different nickname ! Or am I mistaken?
