Just had a thought. Will TheotherHelenMumsnet change her name to HelenMumsnet?

It's like MNHQ version of Doctor Who....

Who blabbed? Shock

We should definitely have a big party thread for you. I have to warn you that I will get drunk and start flashing round cock pictures...

The real reason you are going, I presume, is a desperate attempt to slash the gin budget. With your departure, and Olivia off the juice, I've been told that Justine can now afford to scrap the site adverts Grin.

Seriously, you will be greatly missed. Being ticked off by you always gave me an inappropriate frission Sad

Gah! Rumbled re gin budget.

Party thread sounds hilarious!

"And, though I'm achingly sad to leave, it's a new challenge. And you don't get many of them at my age"

Fuxsake. Some days it's a challenge to get my arse out the chair without going 'ooof!' I am constantly challenged, constantly I tells ya!Grin

AmazingBouncingFerret · 06/08/2013 13:31

BOF, wasn't me!

SconeInSixtySeconds · 08/08/2013 16:16

You have always been scrupulously bribeable with gin fair and I shall miss you :(

BIWI · 08/08/2013 17:12

Gin. I can do gin!

I do hope the party invites are coming out shortly? Otherwise a whole load of gin-soaked feminazi harpies (that's what we're called, isn't it?) will descend on Mumsnet Towers to make our own party!

BIWI · 08/08/2013 17:17

Woah!

Fenton has flounced? When did that happen? Why?!

There isn't a Moldies 2 is there, that Helen is going off to run?

SconeInSixtySeconds · 08/08/2013 18:04

Fenton flounced ages ago, but she is back

SoupDragon · 08/08/2013 18:06

But didn't she then flounce again, albeit for the summer only?

BIWI · 08/08/2013 18:07

She hasn't been around for a while - I was perturbed enough to do an advanced search Blush

SconeInSixtySeconds · 08/08/2013 18:38

Whaaaa? Fgs I turn my back for five minutes....

TheDoctrineOfJetlag · 13/08/2013 22:33

Good luck Helen Thanks

NetworkGuy · 13/08/2013 22:53

Good luck for the future, whatever the reason for your departure.

Don't forget to join in a personal capacity to say Hello sometime...

NetworkGuy · 13/08/2013 22:56

(Just knew I should have hit 'Show all messages' before typing...)

Ah well, good luck with new bigger gin budget challenge...

HelenMumsnet · 13/08/2013 22:57

Thanks everyone. Last day on Thurs Sad

Hope you'll all come and wave me goodbye...

Hassled · 13/08/2013 23:01

Oh what a shame - you will be missed, Helen. I've always loved your "Evening all, what's all this then?" approach - I imagine you rocking back on your heels like the friendly village bobby you should have been :o.

Really hope your future plans work out well you - and thank you for all the firefighting.

HelenMumsnet · 13/08/2013 23:07

Arf at village bobby!

ExitPursuedByABear · 13/08/2013 23:22

Waves now in case I forget.

MmeLindor · 14/08/2013 10:01

So when is this leaving party, then?

[readies gin supplies]

It is the End of an Era.
