bleurgh, bleurgh, bleurgh -

I also find those "baby on board" badges equally heinous - I mean, someone is going to give you their bus/train seat or not - badge not going to make a snot's worth of difference.

I was 8 months pregnant and took a train from Winchester to London and sat on the floor most of the way -

PMSL at "Hunk on Board" Bet he gets all the women!!!

binker · 03/06/2007 11:56

they are abominable and hideous and smug....

I saw a Groovy Mum on Board one yesterday - and thought 'what would mumsnet say' Actually they don't offend me at all, I just assumed her dc had given it to her!

I don't have one though, I'm usually driving with the window open & shouting at my dc so I don't need a sign to warn people they're there...

also don't like those t shirts with bump on board etc on them - so bleeding what ? it's just smug look at me I'm clever...yuck.

The Ben Elton comment on those 'child on board' signs was quite pertinent, I thought. He suggested child-free people should have a sign along the lines of: "God has yet to grant me the wonderful gift of children, but I would still appreciate it if you tried not to ram me up the rear end anyway."

Disneyprincess · 03/06/2007 12:21

I got a "best mum in the world on board" for mothers day..Ok needless to say its stuck on my bedroom mirror.
But tbh i dont see any problem in "baby on board" etc

I saw one that said "Cheeky monkey on board". It had been amended with marker pen to "Cheeky monkey's on board". So a double whammy - a shit sign AND a rogue apostrophe!!!!!! Did make me think of MN I must admit.

I also laughed when I saw a yellow diamond shaped sign which said "This is a pointless yellow sign"

Idobelieveinfairies · 03/06/2007 19:57

I'm not quite getting this one tbh.....why does it aggrevate people though?

Sorry

LadyMacbeth · 03/06/2007 20:09

Lol Mawbroon.

I did buy a 'baby on board' sign when I had dd1 - I did suffer from PBS so I'll put it down to that. I sheepishly took it down after a month or so when I realised how utterly naff it looked.

I did buy it thinking it would make tailgaters think twice about driving up my arse as the signs do make me hold back even more from cars in front. I certainly didn't buy it out of smugness or for attention!!

I think any derivatives of 'baby on board' are seriously sad and... er... somewhat chavtastic.

lilymolly · 03/06/2007 20:09

Hate them, as if we will drive any differently because they have these signs

LadyMacbeth · 03/06/2007 20:11

So Lilymolly are you saying that you would still drive closely to the car in front if they had one of those signs on the back?

BabiesInBedsGalore · 03/06/2007 20:17

well, i got a rather sophisticated bebe a bord one from italy. or france. or somewhere sophisticated anyway.
oh yes, very cool, me.

LOL at wordsmiths post

BabiesInBedsGalore · 03/06/2007 20:20

rather harshly (esp as i only have boys) i always think to myself whenever i see baby girls branded as princesses and garbed from head to clueless toe in 300 shades of puke, sorry, pink..'bet she comes home pregnant when shes 15. hehehe'

ok, so im not a nice person.

lilymolly · 03/06/2007 20:20

sorry to clarify, I would drive no differently if there was sign or not.

I am a safe driver and would keep my distance regardless of who was on board

TaylorsMummy · 03/06/2007 20:23

god babies,you can't go round thinking like that! that's really not nice!! you can't tell if a baby is gonna get pregnant in 15 years time by what colour she is wearing

Slubberdegullion · 03/06/2007 20:24

I would like a sign that says,

The woman in the car in front of you is currently shouting at her children to shut up and stop whinging whilst simultanously trying to dislocate her shoulder to retrieve a stuffed toy that has fallen into the passenger seat footwell. If I were you I would give her a wide berth. She is not 100% focused on her driving.

Otter · 03/06/2007 20:25

make me vom driven by to$%%^s

LadyMacbeth · 03/06/2007 20:26

Lilymolly.

Babies, OK so if you ever have a girl with (God forbid) a fierce determination to wear pink every day I hope you can remember what you've written on here!

Not nice.
