Stripeymama. As initiation, we now require that you start a thread, proclaiming that people who feed sausage rolls to their children should be reported to social services.

WanderingTrolley · 13/08/2007 22:06

Hello.

I am inappropriately roffling at 'somehow brought it on himself' and will be posting such on here

Aitch · 13/08/2007 22:07

thanks for the welcome, and yeah it gives the impression of fluffy butthere's something a bit icky and dare I say small minded there.

Oooh LadyV!, you sound all matron like!

BBBee · 13/08/2007 22:09

welcome.

Get yourself a thick skin and a sense of humour and let rip!

Hi I made it over here, from over there, a few months back now.

So a huge welcome to an ex-nm! There are a few escapees on here.

I'd go for the sausage roll recommendation, it'll be a good way of making new friends

Aitch · 13/08/2007 22:10

loveangel is another ex-nmer. she should seriously think about changing her name as well...

rosmerta · 13/08/2007 22:12

hi stripeymama

whomovedmychocolate · 13/08/2007 22:12

Stripey, you mean this thread?

whomovedmychocolate · 13/08/2007 22:13

It's GORN!!!!! Blimey must have been getting tense over there at nutmums...

WanderingTrolley · 13/08/2007 22:13

Hijack over.

Gregg's sausage rolls are, I believe, the worst offenders.

well that'll teach me to try and do fancy linky business. Will have another go in a bit. But it was basically the kind of ignorant stuff you can imagine. Filthy terrorists? Gaaaah.

Perhaps they will be sponsored by the Daily Mail next week

WanderingTrolley · 13/08/2007 22:17

It's here

Desiderata · 13/08/2007 22:17

[sigh] I read the Daily Mail on occasion.

Same old, same old. I think I'll start a thread on Grauniad readers.

whomovedmychocolate · 13/08/2007 22:20

Urggh shall we goose step to the coffee shop now or wait till later?

MyTwopenceworth · 13/08/2007 22:21

Hi Stripes! Here is your official MN Hard Hat . We all have one.

Here's your pitchfork

Place your hat on your head, hold your pitchfork in your left hand and place your right hand over your left nork.

And now the Pledge. Repeat after me.

I, Stripeymama, promise to never allow a sausage roll or fruit shoot within 10 ft of any member of my family. I will ban the Daily Mail from my home. I shall never allow the neglected wails of my offspring, or my other half, to interfere with my mn time. And I promise to shun textspeak and the dreaded 'Hun'. Ah M.N.

whomovedmychocolate · 13/08/2007 22:21

I read the Independent - I'm wishy washy. Each to their own.

Can I be pedantic about a nutmums poster?

"I still find it incredulous that no one has ever really picked up on the fact that he was an illegal immigrant."

No you don't ... you may find it incredible...

Sorry - that typo really was accidental - honest....

whomovedmychocolate · 13/08/2007 22:25

Mine wasn't a typo.
