what happened to your first dog, Harry, was it? Vanished, seemingly. Replaced by a better model?

Enid · 18/06/2008 13:10

that woman takes a lot of shit and always comes up smiling

and I like the name Bluebell

Ryobi · 18/06/2008 13:12

MONKEYMONKEY · 18/06/2008 13:14

Tutter · 18/06/2008 13:15

you nasty old bags

katierocket · 18/06/2008 13:16

LOL Aitch.

AitchNunsnet · 18/06/2008 13:18

lol tutter i was just about to say that it was orangina's excellent joke in the first place but she was too afraid of reprisals to start a thread. i was going to give credit where it was due but now it looks like i'm trying to shift the blame...

What cutbacks have you made in the credit crunch?

Many single mothers say they struggle to cope on their own and need help, how do you cope with such hardship?

What is your opinion on skinny 'celebrities' being role models for children?

bundle · 18/06/2008 13:30

Bluebell is Ok Enid

but Madonna???

GivePeasAChance · 18/06/2008 13:32

I admire the way she cashes in on being a single mum. Real girl power.

Oliveoil · 18/06/2008 13:33

I like Geri Halliwell

I have been in the same room met the Spice Girls and they were lovley to everyone

leave Geri alone you harridans

Snaf · 18/06/2008 13:34

Bluebell Halliwell
Give a dog a bone

Makes me larf ev'ry time...

GivePeasAChance · 18/06/2008 13:40

Sorry but she's full of it. An opinion on everything, generally on things that she has no knowledge about or at best only her own (dislocated) knowledge. I don't listen to these sorts of vacuous people preach on about anything - single parenthood, music, 'girl power' and so on.

The definition of a waste of time.

orangina · 18/06/2008 13:47

You did it aitch!

orangina · 18/06/2008 13:49

(ps: not too afraid of reprisals, it's just that i'm only capable of starting threads about really boring things like which hoover shall i buy...)

AitchNunsnet · 18/06/2008 14:06

oh yes, so you say...

batters, imagining that Ms Halliwell can restrain herself from "virtually" looking in the mirror for any length of time is a pretty tall order....

My DP remembers a time when GH was older than him. He's somehow managed to overtake her over the years.

Piffle · 19/06/2008 12:58

I think GH is someone I have fuck all in common with.
I have of late seen her strolling draped over a chap(him pushing wee Bluebell (ps do you call her Bloob for short?))
So her single parenting is much less single parenting than mine was.
But she is obviously hard up as she cnanot afford to eat properly.
Is the credit crunch affecting you already?
Do you want my lentil recipes?

flubdub · 17/07/2008 13:37

Is this really real??
