Mumsnet Talk: Quote of the Week - Suggestions Wanted

172 replies

AbbyMumsnet · 18/05/2006 14:25

Hi all,
We thought it would be fun to include a "Quote of the Week" from Mumsnet Talk in our weekly newsletter, as a sort of celebration of all that is LOL funny - if not slightly surreal - and unique about Mumsnet. Please post your suggestions here. (And do try and keep 'em clean Grin)

Paul...Will you still need me when I'm 64?

Heather.....No. F**k off. But leave your wallet.

I liked the 'big bush' liners! But again, a bit rude!

cod · 18/05/2006 21:31

bubble99 · 18/05/2006 21:33

Which, cod. The Maccas or the 'big bush' liners? Whatever they may be..

morningpaper · 18/05/2006 21:35

Mine favourite quote of the week is:
"This is how some mumsnetters choose to express themselves."

Rhubarb · 18/05/2006 21:36

Rhuby. You are returning to the UK. Begone with your Frenchified habits and book a wax, FGS.

Rhubarb · 18/05/2006 21:48

Yes but when they said 'wax' I didn't realise they weren't talking about candle wax - and it got bloody hot up there!

bubble99 · 18/05/2006 21:51

Did anyone sing 'Happy Birthday' and lean in for a blow?

Rhubarb · 18/05/2006 21:57

Hard to say really, I can't see right to the bottom!

bubble99 · 18/05/2006 21:59

Do we need to send out a search party??

Rhubarb · 18/05/2006 22:05

I think they're in there too!

bubble99 · 18/05/2006 22:19

I hope you've got them party bags for the way out.
