OK - it hasn't! (Sorry Justine!)

It's just a hypothetical scenario.

But with all this coverage, it's growth etc etc I bet it WILL happen at some point in the next few years.

L'Oreal bought BodyShop

and just recently Disney bought Club Penguin.

So who do you think would buy Mumnsnet, and how do you think you will feel if it happens?

Looks like I might be off in their direction now. As a depressed and now overdue pregnant woman if I can't gorge on them now when can I?

MrsWeasley · 13/09/2007 10:38

I think COD should buy it and rename it in her own special style

filthymindedbolshevixen · 13/09/2007 10:40

MRS WEASLEY - have you heard owt yet? Is it too early to panic yet??

MrsWeasley · 13/09/2007 10:41

I got a phone call from Hamleys yesterday asking for name and age of child atending and the lady said letters would come early next week.

filthymindedbolshevixen · 13/09/2007 10:42

So, who are you taking??

MrsWeasley · 13/09/2007 10:45

I've said I'll take my DD (she is 8.5 yo) She really needs a confidence boost and I'm looking forward to some mum/daughter time together. She doesnt know yet though! When they rang I still hadnt make my mind up and had to ring her back
