Well hopefully the title says it all. There's been a suggestion, and we agree, that as we did with Baby P and the Mc Canns we just have one thread where anyone who feels they still have anything to add on this subject can post and those who'd rather move on can hide it away.

It feels strange to put this thread in site stuff as we are definitely not wanting to encourage further discussion of Moldies (we have presents to wrap too you know ) but we weren't sure where else to put it.

We will delete any new Moldies threads that are started, so please feel free to report them in case we miss any (what with wrapping the presents and all...)

And if you do want to carry on the discussion please remember that Mumsnet's here to make everyone's lives easier and not the reverse, and that Christmas is a time of goodwill to all mumsnetters past, present and future

Thanks,
MNHQ

CD - think it was only the "closed" 1000+ threads that were kept.

Either that or the threads in question have been bumped/created since MNHq went to bed.

expatinscotland · 24/12/2008 00:24

here's a Mayfair Smooth for you, FAQ.

here's another for my mother, who will never till her dying die get it through her thick, half-French skull that i am British.

that that's my trump card.

that i have a maroon passport like she has hers with whatever French fuckery is on it and i am free.

i am free, free, free to live in Europe and i never, ever have to do or say FA and go to the US and blah blah blah heeheeeeeee.

that goes for all of us.

goldFAQinsenceandmyrrh · 24/12/2008 00:25

expatinscotland · 24/12/2008 00:26

he's asleep, ruty. and tonight, DH has him.

i'm going to sleep on the couch in the backroom before my pal gets here tomorrow and occupies the spare mattress in that room that is not mine.

and i'm going to sssssllleeeep till about 10AM and i don't feel guilty at all.

oh,no.

i am done with guilt and crying and all that shit.

i've bought sprouts. and i'm going to boil them to mush as is family tradition.

expatinscotland · 24/12/2008 00:28

sprouts are vile. little mini cabbages that taste like . . . like just taste vile.

let's pesticide all of them into oblivion.

better yet, let's find a way to cover all crops of them in acid and the entire UK could trip out and we'd hear about it on BBC instead of the queen.

that'd be cool!

especially if wills and harry ate some and they showed up on air, all peaking and shit.

ruty · 24/12/2008 00:29

can someone stop dd crying please?

ggirlsbells · 24/12/2008 00:29

expat=have you still got your parents there ?

expatinscotland · 24/12/2008 00:31

same difference, FAQ, a fag's a fag.

i got a bloody Afrikaans family parked in this house from Hogmanay for three weeks afterwards.

hey ho i'm not too bothered. they are landlord's son-in-law's brother and his wife and son.

'don't speak English?' 'speak accented English?'

um. yes. 'You.take.care.my.children.me.go.to.pub. me.see.you.later.'

ritu - shred them in a food processor (sprouts that is not children), boil for 5 mins in very little water- drain water and add a dash of cream then warm through and serve - delicious.

expatinscotland · 24/12/2008 00:32
