Ha! I was just about to sulk because no-one remembered me. (I've been on since Sep 2000 - used to be kmg.) Then I noticed Scummymummy mentioned me.

I love you Scummymummy

LIZS · 19/02/2006 20:35

Well the joining fee is £20.06 but I did wonder too .... keep meaning to phone up.

Eowyn · 19/02/2006 20:40

am still pretty quiet but it's v wierd to see all my old posts.

Jodee · 19/02/2006 20:42

Love you too, Scummy, I'm still here! Mostly to be found lurking on the Bournemouth/Poole threads but I can't believe I've been posting since March 2001.

Are Bumblelion/Threeangels/GeorginaA still around?
What about ChanelNo5 (Pamina would know, I'm sure).

Mhamai · 19/02/2006 20:44

I'm only around just under a year but what happrened to St. George? Was she not an oldie? and where is she now? I miss her cakes

throckenholt · 19/02/2006 20:58

my earliest post I can find is August 2003 - but I think I was here before that (it is all such a blur ).

When did Mumsnet start ?

me, I'm ancient - 2001 I think. No one mentioned me, sob!!!

Mo2 · 19/02/2006 21:36

ScummyMummy / Sobernow - yes! I'm still here - (thanks for remembering me ) although as JanH says, I was MotherofOne way back in 2001/2

(so that deffo makes me an old timer!!)

Dinny/LizS - I'm a member at N Priory.... PLEASE join - I was just thinking about giving up my membership 'cos I'm lacking Gym Buddies (= no motivation). If you want to come and have a look around I'm happy to arrange a meet up for us in the bar - let me know e-mail is contact_Mo2(at)hotmail.com

ScummyMummy · 19/02/2006 21:39

Arrgh! That's the only trouble with these threads, Bugsy- key people are ALWAYS forgotten. You are a v fab old timer, don't worry. I bet there are loads of other people we've missed out. Have very much enjoyed this trip down memory lane though.

Forgot all about that poem- Enid and lisaV (Rhubarb) are both evil workers now and I can't even remember callie... Please forgive me if you're still about callie.

brimfull · 19/02/2006 21:41

I've been here since 2003 but used to be polly28...don't think I'd be classed as oldtimer though

doormat · 19/02/2006 21:52

ive been here since early 2001,bet no-one even noticed!!

Caligula · 19/02/2006 22:42

Ha! I'm an old timer!

mcmudda · 19/02/2006 23:25

I've been lurking since Oct '02 and first posted in Nov '02 I think, but maybe it was later. I was Bobsmum for ages, then Muddaofsuburbia then mcmudda. But I don't post on anything too controversial because I'd cry if I got shouted at Tend to stick to nappies and product threads - I guess birth announcements are usually pretty safe too

tigermoth · 20/02/2006 00:39

sobernow, talking of that book launch, I have always regretted not going for a drink with you before you caught your train back.

Scummy - you are queen list maker tonight.

I am pretty sure at least one or two of the 'absantee' old timers still post under different names. Nice to see tigger has re appeared. No sightings of Croppy or Hmonty or emmam - and blueskies, who were you? (nosey emoticon).

tigermoth · 20/02/2006 00:40

And has anyone mentioned bells? if not, add to oldtimers list.

alexsmum · 20/02/2006 00:56

i've been on since 2000/2001 and have never changed my name.noone ever remembers me either!

tigermoth · 20/02/2006 01:22

Alexesmum - yes, your name is very familiar now.

WideWebWitch · 20/02/2006 04:12
