Today we're building a raft and then making a parachute for an egg.

If you can get yourselves into teams...

No, I don't think you should go with her. She's a bad influence on you.

Can one member of each team come and collect an egg from me, please? There'll be points deducted at the end of the day for any broken ones.

That's just the sort of pushiness that this bonding thread hopes to stamp out, young lady.

I suspect its a bit late though....might have to bump this in the morning....

SecurMummy · 03/07/2006 00:45

What about mediumbies?

VeniVidiVickiQV · 03/07/2006 00:52

all welcome to take part, although, if you arent a newbie, then, by default you are an oldbie....yipeeeee!

SecurMummy · 03/07/2006 00:54

yey! Ok, well let me know who I get paired up with then, just make sure they are nice and will not annoy anyone in the near future as I would hate to be responsible for someone who causes drama and intrigue within MN's Towers...... actually, on second thoughts...

How new do you have to be to be a 'newbie'?
Is it based on mnet experience and hours?
SecurMummy, i'm following you, you seem to get accepted on a lot of threads!

I've been here for years and i know all the important people, how great am i?

SecurMummy · 03/07/2006 01:08

ROFL at spoons Californifrau

Actually, it is less accepted, it is more that they get bored with saying "no go away you annoying little wasp" and decide it is easier just to give in....

I think newbie should be based on how many of the people in the team recognise you (or can name a fact about you) - that should get things warmed up nicely

iamapieceofcheesecake · 03/07/2006 01:10

Does anyone even know i exist....

SecurMummy · 03/07/2006 01:13

Yes, I know you, every time you appear everyone offers you round

(does that count as both a recognition and a fact?)

iamapieceofcheesecake · 03/07/2006 01:16

Actually, it makes me feel a bit used....

SecurMummy · 03/07/2006 01:20

Right, I am off to bed, wake me up in time for the BBQ breakfast won't you?

Oh and don't use all the hot water

iamapieceofcheesecake · 03/07/2006 01:24

Me too. Night all. Please let me know who I am paired up with in the morning.
