Grin

She has just sent out a group email to 100 parents/the head, of the last AGM minutes. Then obviously wanted to bitch to one other PTA mum about THE HEAD but... has copied in the 100 parents... AND THE HEAD.

My life is complete. I am practically purring in pleasure. Cannot WAIT for this afternoon in the playground. Grin

Genius! I love a bit of karma Smile

PyroclasticFlo · 19/09/2013 19:43

Marmalade I remember the Lemon Drizzle vs cornflake cake debacle thread and loved it.

But this?

THIS is fucking genius. It's made my week Grin.

Utterly, utterly brilliant. Can't wait for tomorrow's update!

BigW · 19/09/2013 19:44

Holy crap! I remember that thread. Wowza.

HellonHeels · 19/09/2013 19:44

I remember the lemon drizzle thread! Am crying laughing at that email!

"Dyking it up"?!

Also did she say "moron" Shock or am I confused?

stealthsquiggle · 19/09/2013 19:44

That is superb. Just amazing.

Do tell Vera that MN says she comes out of this looking good (after she gives us you the juicy details of the crisis meeting, of course)

impatienttobemummy · 19/09/2013 19:45

I can't wait! Just read both threads... Comedy genius no wonder you are thrilled! Karma baby karma!

LemonBreeland · 19/09/2013 19:46

OMG! That is so funny. I could cringe for her from here.

Absolutely just desserts though.

TeWiSavesTheDay · 19/09/2013 19:46

Shock ohemgee. She is amazing!

Poor Vera...

DameFanny · 19/09/2013 19:47

Grin Oh Twatters you've made me happy tonight...

I do hope Vera's a mumsnetter - I like her already.

Stravy · 19/09/2013 19:47

She called Vera a 'fucking moron with a photoshop package'

MarmaladeTwatkins · 19/09/2013 19:48

She did say moron. Dyking it up is the one, though. How will she ever be able to look at Deirdre the Head in the eye ever again?

The only way out of it is to get her chequebook out and write a fat one for the entire 11 grand for the kiddy playground.

Then emigrate.

It's going to be years until she can remember this without sticking her fingers in her ears and going "lalalalalalalalalala"

Dilidali · 19/09/2013 19:49

Oh my god! Oh Christ!!!! This is BAD!
I remember the lemon drizzle thread. Christ this is bad!

I feel so sorry for her!
I'd email her back, saying thanks for the email, keep me posted.

Oh my god!!!

ItIsKnown · 19/09/2013 19:50

Grin at all day looking at new schools. And on Rightmove.

BatwingsAndButterflies · 19/09/2013 19:52

OMG, this has made my evening :o

peppapigmustdie · 19/09/2013 19:52

Shamelessly marking my place... I would have to emigrate or go into some sort of witness protection scheme for Lemon Drizzle cake murderers.

IAmNotAMindReader · 19/09/2013 19:52

Self engineered downfall. Classic.

She's going to have to go for the full package. New identity, plastic surgery, new life on another continent, counselling for the flashbacks.

Oh dear. Oh dear, oh dear Grin

MadBusLady · 19/09/2013 19:52

Oh thank fuck for that.

I don't remember the lemon drizzle thread but you do realise this is showing up in the active convo sidebar as "Anyone who remembers Marmalade Twatkins..."

Shock

I thought you'd been deaded!

lurkydrizzler · 19/09/2013 19:52

This is going to get leaked to the local paper surely? I can picture the headlines now 'PTA in disarray' 'Lemon Drizzle in a tizzle'.

silverten · 19/09/2013 19:53

Dear god. If this is the sort of drama you get from the PTA, I can't wait til DD goes to school...

That message is just.......jaw dropping in its awfulness.

How on earth can you recover from that???

silverten · 19/09/2013 19:53

Oops. Sorry!

ArbitraryUsername · 19/09/2013 19:55

I think I might join the PTA too. DS2 has just started reception.

I bet ours is really dull in comparison.

DS1's school apparently have some kind of PTFA, but I've never seen any evidence of them so I think they're mythical.

sillyoldfool · 19/09/2013 19:55

I remember the lemon drizzle debacle, this is just amazing!!! Can't wait for updates...

ItIsKnown · 19/09/2013 19:56

Unfortunate preview but I reckon the title should be edited anyway to show that it MUST BE READ BY EVERYBODY! I didn't remember the lemon drizzle so nearly missed it Shock

It should especially be read by Matthew Wright's researchers.

ShimmeringInTheSun · 19/09/2013 19:56

OP the lemon drizzle dramarama actually enticed me to join Mumsnet, so yes, I remember it well!

AND ...as a bonus, this thread has just unfrozen my numb and paralysed gargoylic facial features (marathon dental work), as my jaw just smacked the floor at her crazed crassness!

I appear to be almost normal again! Grin
