HarrywillNOTfuckingdie · 12/07/2007 14:08

WaynettaSlob · 12/07/2007 14:09

hang on a tick - I have the original post somewhere.......I think....

BettySpaghetti · 12/07/2007 14:11

Wouldn't it be good to have a Classic Threads section where hilarious ones like that are saved for posterity ?

Anytime you're feeling hacked off you can just pick a thread to cheer yourself up.

Nbg · 12/07/2007 14:11

Oh god that was hilarious!

Bring it back.

WaynettaSlob · 12/07/2007 14:12

Right, it's not the whole thread, but it should be enough to keep you going till Tech gets the original

Oh OK!!

After ds1 was born, I needed stitches. They removed the top half of the bed, and put me at the bottom half, with my feet in stirrups. It was a very small delivery room - in part cos I don't think they thought I was EVER going to give birth

Soo - am there, feet in stirrups, occupying the bottom half of the bed. The doctor was perched on a wheely stool thing, in this tiny delivery room, awaiting the passive arrival of my torn min-min, for his ministrations...

Aaanyway, cos of syntocinon drip, I was still honking like a good 'un, so some bright spark, propped me up on pillows , and raised the bottom part of the bed, so I didn't choke....

Unfortunately, because I am incredibly supple (tae kwon do) and had an epidural, which meant I had no feeling or control (or so I sez )

I SLID down the delivery table, past the end, past the stirrups - my feet stayed where they were in the stiruups, but the rest of me carried on..) and into the face of the waiting doctor.

Cos it was a small delivery room, he was PINNED to the wall, by my savaged min-min - honest to god, it was in his face. he shouted "HELP" in quite a distressed tone of voice, but the midwives and dh were busy with the baby..

After 38 hours of labour, and a severe sense of humour failure throughout - it suddenly returned..

The Doctor looked SO panicked - like I was wielding a sub machine gun, not a savaged min-min.

I remarked to him "I bet you didn't think you'd spend your saturday night like THIS did you!!" Then I LITERALLY pissed myself laughing - in his face...

Dh turned to me, with some irritation, and said "FGS sober up - you're a mother now!" - which made me laugh even more!! and the midwives ran to oik me up the bed - but the doctor looked distinctly nervous - he did a FABULOUS job of my stitches - afterwards, I hardly knew they were there -

mind you - by this point, he was prolly so freaked out by my min-min, that he thought if he didn't do a good job, my min would find out where he lived, and would come and burn his house down....

HarrywillNOTfuckingdie · 12/07/2007 14:12

oh thats a good idea betty

Nbg · 12/07/2007 14:15

ROFL

Love it.

lissie · 12/07/2007 14:17

pmsl AGAIN!!!!

WaynettaSlob · 12/07/2007 14:19

in order to help Tech setup the Classic Threads, let's start a list:

Hamsters don't dissolve
Savaged min-min
Darceysmum's office party

what else?

tombley · 12/07/2007 14:19

ROFL. I always crack up at the bit when she pees in the doctors face and am helpless when her DH tells her to sober up cos she's a mother now.
Classic threads are an excellent idea.

lulumama · 12/07/2007 14:19

the last sentence,that is the clincher!!

SaintGeorge · 12/07/2007 14:20

Lots of links to classic threads here

tombley · 12/07/2007 14:20

Blue Cheese Fanjo.

WaynettaSlob · 12/07/2007 14:22

Ishouldbeworking · 12/07/2007 14:28

HedTwigg · 13/07/2007 09:26

OliviaMumsnet · 13/07/2007 10:21

Well, I've never been called Saintly before - even by association! I'm not sure if we can do anything about this one, sadly, but I'll ask.

MamaGryffindor · 13/07/2007 14:23

Am so glad you just said that Twig, I've never laughed at tablecloth thread [relief]

JustineMumsnet · 13/07/2007 18:22

Classic threads is a good thought - we could do this week's classic thread in the newsletter too...
Will consult with Techman and be back.
