Edgarcat - I've ran out of excuses too. I'm going to get them this Friday....... honest, I won't bottle out this time!

A little lapel badge would have made the book launch party easier rather than little huddles of curious women going "Is she a mumsnetter...? What about them...?"

How do you recognise a mumsnetter in the park? Well, she could be reading the CLBB but looking around to check if anyone is watching ... then she will whip it in her bag if she sees anyone approaching ...
Alternatively she is sitting on a bench with a lap top ...
Girls, girls ... why stop at Amsterdam? ... come to NZ!!!!!!!

Oh I like the idea of a mumsnet lapel badge! Only mumsnetters would recognise them and anyone who wasn't probably wouldn't ask what it was. If they did you could just give a vague 'oh, it's a group I belong to' kind of reply. I often wonder if other mums in the park are mumsnetters but wouldn't know how to bring it up. Edgarcat, at your large arms and RSI comments.

Mumsnetters, if accompanied by their children will be carrying a jug of water

Love this thread! Can't think of anything funny to add though!

whymummy · 23/04/2003 22:47

a mumnetter in the park
she sits alone,she sweats(withdrawl syndrome),shes too busy thinking about her next thread to talk to others then she comlains that shes got no friends.....

sorry,5 smirnoff ice watching the fotball

went to a meetup recently and genuinely wanted to refer to dh as "dh", as in "dh said to me the other day". And have almost said it to friends at work.

Dinny · 23/04/2003 22:59

I frequently look at people I see in baby groups etc and wonder if they are a mumsnetter. Surely owning a pc + having offspring = mumsnetter....?

WideWebWitch · 24/04/2003 15:57

emieswill, IKWYM - I use the phrase 'In My Opinion' far more than I used to before discovering mumsnet!
