Fancy being a Mumsnet Local Tsar? (or should that be Tsarina?)

Are you the source of all local knowledge and gossip? We're looking to recruit committed Mumsnetters to take charge of each Mumsnet local site. The role involves galvanising other local Mumsnetters to make your section as up to date, full of listings and useful as possible, editing new postings for accuracy and checking out new places for possible inclusion.
It's a voluntary post but you can make as much (or as little) of it as you like, stick it on your CV if that would help and/or share it with another Mumsnetter if you're worried about time commitments. If it sounds like something you?d be interested in, sign up here and we'll send you some more info.

If the area you'd like to cover isn't mentioned, please feel free to add it in the "other" box at the bottom.

Thanks
MNHQ

MNHQ - how come Northampton is suddenly in the West Midlands? It is sometimes under South East (National Trust!), sometimes, East Anglia (TV area), sometimes East Midlands (schools) but NEVER before have I seen it under West Midlands!

Mercy · 11/06/2007 22:18

oh, right have just caught up with this.

When you say anyone chosen to be a Tsar won't be anonymous what exactly do you mean? Not real names surely?

Wotz · 11/06/2007 22:18

tigermoth · 11/06/2007 22:37

marina, I think we could make a great team - along with maureen perhaps?

Will watch this thread closely to find out how anon (or not) you can be.

Manictigger · 12/06/2007 14:21

Does it involve visiting a lot of cafes and restaurants for assessment purposes (quite fancy being Egon Ronay and spouting pretentious shite)? However the title Tzar sounds a bit classy for Telford.

p.s. Are the Ironbridge gorge museums listed on Mumsnet local? Because if not, they should be, whole family admission is cheap, can last a whole year and the place is fascinating (Enginuity is apparently especially good for kids, I haven't been, my dd is too young but my DH is pretty keen )

Hi all

Huge thanks to everyone who has signed up so far, it's been a fantastically encouraging response.

Re anonymity, Tsarinas would be known by their Mumsnet nicknames so I suppose in terms of knowing where Rhubarb or Tigermoth lives folks would have more of an idea, but the areas are pretty broad and we're not talking real names and addresses.

Manictigger, you can do as much Egon Ronaying as you like, the more the better, and have a search for the Ironbridge gorge museum and do add - sounds fab.

Mercy we'd be really interested to hear what you find confusing in the listings. We're adding improvements (we hope!)all the time so do let us know what you think is wrong.

Hope that answers some questions. I'm off out for a date with the dh so if you ask and I don't get back, I'm not ignoring you.

Thanks again and there's still room for more volunteers so don't be shy
Hope that
