MNHQ Open day live thread

[RebeccaMumsnet]

Morning all,

So today's the day , we have the and 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 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.

@Solo

Patrick is there! he's the one that doesn't actually have any facial hair. He does look vair young though lucky chap 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

The brownies lasted approximately 5 minutes after you guys left, then I everyone else in the office had a go on them.

Thank you for your excellent judgement - I can also confirm that everyone in MNHQ (and Mumsnetters obvs) is gorgeous. Especially the mods

Lego, MNHQ's address has been at the bottom of the page for years. And you've been here for years too. Surprised you've not got around to stalking before now. Never mind, now's your chance

[Solo]

So does that mean you aren't posting a piece out to me then KateS ?

[IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece]

Hq, if you ever need anything from a shop in KT, dont worry yourselves just let me know and I'll drop it in

[JustineMumsnet]

Actually, I really need a new phone [sobs]

[IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece]

[Solo]

Didn't the rice work then?! it always works...
