We'll be offline for a few minutes tonight

[YetMoreTech]

There will be a short period where Mumsnet is off the air tonight (Wednesday). Hopefully it won't be for more than a few minutes so there shouldn't be any need to, y'know, talk to your partners or anything.

As long as you make it between 7 and 9pm I will survive cos i will be busy trying to convince my DDs that it really is bedtime....anything else and you will be in trouble...

[distracted by smut emoticon]

Hey tech - we could really use that emoticon you know

AND WHERE THE FECK IS [boggle] like I was promised???? hmmmmm? hmmmmmm?

If the smilies change again one will not be amused. You have been warned.

No way!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll have to go for a stroll.
Who knows where I'll end up.
Cod will blame you.
You have been warned.

Going
Down
And

Don't make me come over there and beat it out of you........

We can't even bugger off to BMC since they started fecking charging!!

Of course, you may add new ones but leave the old ones alone. I was not pleased with [blowjob] and [brandishingaknife]

[blowjob]

I too am going to pretend I find dp's work talk fascinating.

Do BMC really charge now?.....how does that work? is it per post?...per word?....per vowel??

do they really??? WTF??

(How much would that post just have cost me?)

I think you'll find that according to paragraph 9, subsection iv, appendix 14.31a "going offline for a few minutes" is not allowed without a 3 month warning with twice daily email to give the MNers advanced notice of said "going off line for a few minutes".

Heads will roll I tell you! Heads will roll!

£12 per year, I think it is.

I think they did it specifically to prevent us lot going over when mumsnet goes down.

We could turn this thing into a game, like the remembering 10 things on a tray game.

Before going off YMTech could list some improbable things, and then go off and have a fiddle with whatever, and then delete the list, and when mn was back up and running we should all have a stab at remembering them.

It could make the blank screen more fun.

Tell us the actual time, I'll have a pee break then.

when when when
does it mean facebook is going to crash with people migrating to the mumsnet facebook group?
