Ahem.

The was one for Halloween.

And it took me aaaaaaages to work out mine. Xmas Wink

I should get a prize for my premature-ness anyway. Xmas Grin

Seriously - I vote for Hassledge.

Altough BaTCD will turn up and suggest brilliant changes for everyone and then I'll be stumpoed on who to pick.

Go on MNHQ.

You know you want to.

Oh...I'm reading this thread and can't decide who has got the best name.
It's like at when your hand hovers over your Christmas box of chocs, they're all so yum you take ages to pick one.

PartridgeinaRustyBearTree · 15/12/2010 14:57

I think OhYouSnowySnowyKitten deserves a prize - not just for the namechange (though it is good) but for the sterling work she is doing advising everyone on the weather for the next week....

ChristmasTrolleyRage · 15/12/2010 14:58

I think there's someone from MNHQ MIA in the back of the prize cupboard DEM.

DidEinsteinsMumDoSanta · 15/12/2010 14:59

Agreed rusty. \her advice is invalueable and so interesting!!!!!

Hassledge · 15/12/2010 14:59

Yay! Go on MNHQ - but the bottle of bubbly (it will be a bottle of bubbly, won't it?) would have to go to TethersEnd, who came up with the name for me. I couldn't possibly have thought of something as clever :o.

ilovesprouts · 15/12/2010 15:00

DidEinsteinsMumDoSanta · 15/12/2010 15:00

walkinginaWUKTERwonderland · 15/12/2010 15:01

Um I don't get yours Hassledge.
Xmas Blush not too clever...

ChristmasTrolleyRage · 15/12/2010 15:02

Perhaps they should put out a BOLO and an SOS DEM.

WUKTER I keep wondering what wukter means?

RebeccaMumsnet · 15/12/2010 15:06

We are still listening.. promise. Just waiting for an email about the prize and then we are good to go.

ChristmasTrolleyRage · 15/12/2010 15:09

Very good.

But Where's Helen?

walkinginaWUKTERwonderland · 15/12/2010 15:09

It's just a silly nonsense gabble DD was making when I signed up, Ethelina.
But I'm kind of fond of it now, just hope I don't introduce myself as Wukter next time I meet someone new.

AbsofCroissant · 15/12/2010 15:12

I would like to nominate myself for a prize, for my own competition, which was for best Hannukah name change. I was AbsofLatkes. It took seconds hours of thinking to come up with that and I want a prize, like say £50 worth of SpaceNK vouchers, or a free vacation to the Maldives. You can PM me to tell me I've won

Thanks.

congrats, Abs.

ChristmasTrolleyRage · 15/12/2010 15:40

Ooh I like that - saw you on another thread and recognised you.

That's important.

Am I alone in my concern regarding the safety of Helen?

ethelinaTheBloodyGreatXmasElf · 15/12/2010 16:00

She's had to fly off to the North Pole to ask the elfs for my our special prize, surely?

ElfPantsAtMidnightMass · 15/12/2010 16:08

Aw thanks Chaos Christmas

Dylthan · 15/12/2010 16:15

Sad oooh I always struggle with these.

HelenMumsnet · 15/12/2010 16:18

I'm here, people!

OK, the bad news is that the people who were going to put up a lovely prize for this have, er, decided not to.

But the good news is, we're going to do the comp/poll anywhere - and rustle up a small prize from somewhere, somehow.

So.... give us a tick and we'll start a new thread to get the whole thing rolling officially.
