Morning all,

So today's the day , we have the Gin and Cake at the ready and five lovely MNetters are coming in for a visit.
CecyHall , ChaosTrulyReigns, PotatoPolly, FaceLikeAFriendlyApple and Solo will be joining us between 10am and 3pm today.
Sadly Nevergoogle, at 38 weeks, didn't want to risk a live birth thread Grin and Hansolo had an unbreakable appointment but we hope they will watch on with interest.

We will pop back to this thread throughout the day and update what they are up to and they may very well post too.

If you have any burning questions about MNHQ then please do post and we will try and answer them.

JustineMumsnet · 27/03/2014 14:32

Oh and please all send positive thoughts to my phone, which is convalescing in a bag of rice as we speak...

MNHQ guys - in November 2012 www.mumsnet.com/Talk/have_you_seen_pictures/1613200-Them-taches-are-a-growing-Come-gasp-at-the-MNHQ-Men-and-their-Movember-face-furniture. So, which is the 'Hot Tech' guy?!

Sparklingbrook · 27/03/2014 17:53

Difficult to tell Fru. Don't like moustaches. Sad

RubberBullets · 28/03/2014 07:47

Doll and dole sound exactly the same

Sparklingbrook · 28/03/2014 09:49

As in 'joining the doll queue'. Confused

Solo · 28/03/2014 09:49

Patrick is there! he's the one that doesn't actually have any facial hair. He does look vair young though lucky chap Grin and vair, vair HOT!! can imagine that he's extremely embarrassed now too.

Justine, it is uncooked rice isn't it? because cooked rice will definitely not work!

Can also confirm that judging by the other Mumsnetter attendees plus all the Mn staff; everybody is bloody gorgeous!

KateS is my chocolate brownie in the post?! I would've eaten one there and then, but I just knew that wearing braces as I do, there would've been some rather odd looks directed toward me and all the gloop stuck around my teeth!

Goody bag is fab too! thank you Mn. My mug says Naice Coffee

Sparklingbrook · 28/03/2014 09:50

I need to see a picture of Patrick to decide on the hotness.

Solo · 28/03/2014 09:51

Sparkling isn't that dole queue? same way you pronounce troll Wink

Solo · 28/03/2014 09:52

He's been posted above. Hold on, I'll see what time etc and direct you.

Sparklingbrook · 28/03/2014 09:54

But you pronounce Troll as in doll not dole.

Ooh thanks Solo.

Solo · 28/03/2014 09:55

Second photo from the top. The one after the Gin pic! most important!!

Sparklingbrook · 28/03/2014 09:56

Doh! So it is Solo-I hadn't studied it carefully. He appears to be wearing a scarf-is it cold at MNHQ?

Solo · 28/03/2014 10:01

He was indeed wearing a scarf. I wasn't cold at all though, so no, don't think so. I think he was just looking stylish myself. Or perhaps he'd spilled chocolate brownie down his top and was hiding it?! Hmm

Sparklingbrook · 28/03/2014 10:02

I wonder if they have dress down Friday?

Solo · 28/03/2014 10:03

Speedo and bikini Sundays I think! Wink not really

Solo · 28/03/2014 10:04

Erm...how can you dress down from smart casual? Confused

Sparklingbrook · 28/03/2014 10:04

Exactly Solo? Grin Fancy dress Friday maybe?

mistlethrush · 28/03/2014 10:13

casual-casual ?

Sparklingbrook · 28/03/2014 10:14

Really casual? Grin

Solo · 28/03/2014 10:38

Loving the Fancy Dress Friday! that would be really inconvenient good fun!

Sparklingbrook · 28/03/2014 10:39

YY Solo and a theme just to be more of a PITA. Grin
