Sorry Justine, Carrie, Rachel. I had only meant Madonna to be a one day wonder (if that?s the right expression). But I promise after this post any madonna won?t be me. The madonna2 is for technical reasons - and I'm not going to explain that to anyone else, tech should understand.
Let me clear something up. I said ?yes? when asked if I was aloha but I also said I was Gina Ford, a clergy wife and that I?d be claiming to have two children but would be lying. No-one actually believed I was Gina Ford so why take the comment about aloha seriously? I?d have said I was the tooth fairy and Father Christmas if anyone had asked. I hadn?t expected to be mistaken for aloha, it was a spur of the moment reply, I did expect aloha to disclaim it and only posted again the next day to make it clear.
?Madonna? was meant to make a serious point about being unable to trust everything you read on the internet. People can pretend to be anyone they want. Even if mumsnet tightens up on name changing I can think of ways to get round it and I?m not a computer wizard. Its very difficult to bar trolls without barring new people. I?m sorry if people are upset by that but its the way the internet operates. The vast majority of the posts on mumsnet are genuine but you can?t rely on it.
Although I?d said I was going to be a troll I didn't generally make the sort of remarks that have been floating around recently. Comments on mumsnet have included ?bog off, cheeky bastard, crp, or cp , I know this post will offend some people but they are my true and honest views, why do you always have to be so b*y offensive, evil babysitting witch (although that was about Gina Ford)". I?ve apologised for one comment. I learnt from being Madonna how easy it is when you are being egged on to get carried away and say more than you meant. Still as a troll I thought I was pretty tame.
And now both of me are going to have a rest.
