Good Evening :)

I hope this is the correct place to post to introduce myself to the world of MumsNet?

I have noooooooo idea where to start, so have you any pointers? I suppose, start posting, stay away from the bunfights and try not to tread on anyones toes ;)

I have a small one, well shes 8 (going on 18) and I am a part time working S/P (nt that that matters of course)

I found this place after it being mentioned on 'A N Other' Parenting site, which quite frankly has died a death, so have come here to see what you guys have to offer.

So, its great to meet you all and I hope that I can settle in nicely.

Love always xx

hello.

just browse through active convos and jump in and talk crap with the rest of us. don't use textspeak or complain about swearing - youll be fine.

battery about to die.

missw2211 · 07/09/2010 21:50

Thanks EG, have been lurking for a couple of weeks now and have been making notes ;)

Oh and I hate text speak with a passion even on a text message and im partial to a swear word or two when small one isnt listening :D

My user name is a bit crap so might change it when I can think of something more interesting.

Thanks for the reply :)

Hello. I would dive right in but maybe safer to reply to threads before starting one on your first few posts in AIBU. Just a thought Smile
Welcome to MN though.

I thought of mine when I first posted, was going to lose my temper big style with DSD and DH if it wasn't for the lovely MN's.

TimothyTigerTuppennyTail · 07/09/2010 22:08

Lines round each word for striking out.

Took me ages to work that out.

Duh.

missw2211 · 07/09/2010 22:09

Ahhh good one :)

Ill have a think and see what I can come up with. Are there any 'no gos' with what I can call myself???

Hi,Smile

You'll love it here! Chat is the place to start when you're new. I've been here for about a year but have only started posting quite recently as I'm quite shy even in cyberspace. Blush

missw2211 · 07/09/2010 22:15

Poledra

Unfortunately not!!! Sorry to disappoint! I am a always going to be 29 but never 30 year old Mummy to one :)
But if you know of one going spare please let me know :)

Hello! And welcome!

Stop doing kisses.

See you on the boards!

missw2211 · 07/09/2010 22:18

Thanks SgtAngua!

It seems such a vast site to try and navigate and when you dont quite know where to start it makes you hold back slighty (and read some hilarity and very good advice from afar)

I ditto the shyness, even though there is anonimity (sp?) its still a scary thing to do....
