So, we thought we'd have a sort of Mumsnet open day...

Ever found yourself wondering, in an idle moment, what really goes on at MNHQ? If you’re curious to know who’s in charge of the big red delete button, what we keep in our biscuit tin, and whether we do, in fact, harbour mainland UK’s largest cache of gin well, here’s your chance. On Wednesday 26th March we’re planning to throw open our doors to five nosy interested Mumsnetters, who’ll have a once-in-a-lifetime chance to uncover our deepest, darkest secrets.

Attendees will be treated to

  • a tour of MNHQ (which will take approx 10 mins)
  • the opportunity to grill our community, content, bloggers, events and campaigns folks on anything you fancy
  • the chance to ransack our books box for a load of freebies
  • lunch on me (possibly with Wine)

We’ll also do our best to organise an exciting webchat guest for the day, so you can see backstage on those too.

Our offices are in central-ish London (Kentish Town); if you’re likely to be within striking distance on March 26th, and fancy a nose around, add your name to this thread; we’ll stick it in a hat and do a Hunger Games-style reaping on Monday 3rd March. Come on now, don’t be shy - what could possibly go wrong?

[May the odds be ever in your favour]

If it's a MN reaping -Hunger Games style- you have to have a boy and a girl.

Term time week day ? Bad planning guys

LordPalmerston · 02/03/2014 07:16

Yes. And strike day.

No teachers can come. No working parents.
Not very inclusive

TheHoneyBadger · 02/03/2014 07:23

term time is better for most people as it requires less extra childcare considerations than a holiday day. is it a strike day? if so it hardly matters that it's a term day since kids won't be at school anyway.

Mumraathenoisylion · 02/03/2014 08:36

Yes please!!! ThanksThanksWineWineThanksThanks

I really cannot see the fascination speaking personally- it's an office full of people selling ad space and other similar activities Confused.

But enjoy anyway Smile.
