The Mumsnet bonding thread - all welcome, bring your sense of fun and dig out your best team-building sandals

[hunkermunker]

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.

Well, I'm the annoying one who tells everyone how to tackle the task immediately (and correctly, I'll have you all know), and is ignored completely because everyone else is trying to get some team-building benefit out of the exercise rather than getting on with launching that raft and getting that egg down to safety,

so I'm parping myself

I'm not pairing up with anyone, what a bunch of bitches!!

Ive just a group of stockbrokers on a bonding session in the next field so Im going to join them

Welsh you harlot!

Oh you would not believe Dr Pepper, it is a bit sad really and I shouldn't tell you but.....

Oh me I am off to get my partner - it is a nice bottle of whiskey and willsuit me just fine - I will be right back with him...

team building my arse, this is more like team breaking well at least i know who my real friends are!

WWB I wuld love to have you on my team - but I have to protect my alcohol lovey - you know what you are like dear

WWB - you are on my team

Welshy is also on my team.

Am aiming for all those whose names start with letters from the last 5 of the alphabet. Seems fair.....

I have my own supplies, I'll have you know ...

Might as well load up with pringles whilst we're at the offy. Hide the booze, after what you've told me about that lot Secur, our booze will not be safe!

What time are the pubs open?

owwww, my elbow hurts, thats why i'm crying, it has nothing to do with the fact that some people are slagging me off or that my relationship with WB is being questioned.

cwtch up WWB youre in my gang now kid, VVVQV will look out for you

i'm with chloe55 just because all your parachutes dont work your rafts sink and you have no eggs dont take it out on us humph ! stop bitching about us in the corner its all here say anyway i never did that !!!

Does anybody need a straight talking, slightly random creative type on thier team?

chloe, I shall tell you this only once

If anyone ever sees those photos it will be the last thing you ever do

I'm trying to catch up, WB, I'm trying, but all these bottles of vodka are really heavy ...

Ok WWB - as long as you carry your share of the Pringles too..

I figure if we get to the offy ASAP then we should just have time to stash our supplies before the pub in the village opens.

I should think we could get lunch there, then we should have been kicked out by about 2 (I mean politly asked to leave) when we can retrive our supplies and come back for a bit of sabbotage aimed at all those who are staying to build rafts?

Sound like a plan?

Change your name to vob, wob, xob, yob or zob and you can be in our team

Hi fob, how're you? I'm jessajam...aren't these things vaguely tedious!?

I think they have some coffee over there and there may be some alcohol on the way...

fob, join us, don't go into rhubarb and securs camp they are a pair of cows, you know the type, always going off together, think they are cool because they get pissed, go against the majority.

Good plan secur! I've some biting red ants I can hide in their knickers!

Realises WWB is going off with the enemy

that helicopter overhead is the police one searching for mrs b... they thought it was a prank when i told them a badger was lost in the woods but after i shouted and bossed them around a bit they took it seriously. now you lot, spread out and form an orderly search party. NOT you three, you're clearly drunk [sighs loudly and tuts audibly whilst rooling eyes and shaking head]
