Mumsnet County … name a place, street, shop or service

[WhirlyByrd]

Your challenge is to suggest names for the places, streets and shops that would make up the County of Mumsnet.

The city would be called Forum. Its suburbs: Boden (designer, very expensive), Hunbury Hills (flashy and a bit TOWIE), Cleek (gated community).

The knitting circle can meet every Wednesday afternoon in the village hall to produce more Woolly Hugs.

And MN Royalty can live in the Big House.

[SaggyOldClothCatPuss]

Well if nobody can think of a job for me, I'm just going to roam around MN County, torturing small animals and shitting in everyone elses gardens!

[nickelhasababy]

surely you live in the window of the junk shop?

[nickelhasababy]

btw - it's pedants' corner

[SarahStratton]

I would like to volunteer border patrol with Hully. I have my own weaponry.

[MadameChinLegs]

Stratton's Batton?

[MoonlightandRoses]

Oops, yes, so it is . That's to nickel BTW

Oh the irony.

[MardyBra]

Can I set up the lingerie shop where you can all come and get fitted for your brassieres. Service with a scowl guaranteed.

[Treblesallround]

Just out of interest, nickel, does one just hang around in pendants' corner?

Bit drastic, isn't it? Once always I was picked last for games at school, never once did I shit in someone's garden except Lucy Baker but the bitch should have picked me

[NorbertDentressangle]

The local court room is presided over by Judge E. Pants

[Saltire]

I have been nominated by me to oversee and test every bottle the wine shop. I need 2 volunteers to help me.

I shall have a lovely red rug in the entrance of the shop

[CharlieUniformNovemberTango]

Sarah and hully are my border patrol deputies then. I shall sit in my office eating donuts and assigning codes for crimes which we can relay over the radio.

tries to think of something clever to illustrate my point but fails

[CharlieUniformNovemberTango]

also fails at strike through

Am I going to have to resign already? Sigh.
