If you (still) feel the need to discuss Moldies, please do it here so folks can hide this if they want to.

[LittleDonkeyCarrieMaryMumsnet]

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

Oh - black russian please.

My mother always used to make me a black russian on christmas eve before I headed off to the pub. Was bliss.

Don't know if this thread is about to end, but PLEASE, MP, could you reproduce Dotterel's mock letter to the indy in your news round-up? I was crying with laughter.

Or a Slow Comfortable (for them) Screw from the banks?

Cat - so long as you gently pour the cream in, over the back of a teaspoon, the coffee will stay black (do NOT get lazy, as i did this afternoon, and after the first half of the cream had landed successfully, got sloppy with the rest and ented up with a brown mess (so to speak!!))

answers? ask custardo

MP. I had to google it.

Hmmmmm.
Hmmmmmmmmmm.

Thanks!

mind you I can never get it quite right

alternative: coffee w cream and drink the whiskey

Nice banter and talk of cocktails - I think this is a suitable point to return to RL for the rest of the evening.

and while the fairy it as it could they please pick up all the toys and rubbish in here, run the hoover round, clear the kitchen worktops (and clean them), empty the kitchen bins and put the dishwasher on?????

I've lost the plot
must have been that champagne truffle

lots of folk on a knife edge atm. not helping things i fear. i am disappointed to see lots of snidey, sweeping comments about moldies, and accusations of same as being the impotus for the article. nothing could be further from the truth.

Nothing bad going on on here - just some cocktail discussion for the last hour-ish.

VVQ i am disappointed to see snidey comments about Moldies. Equally disappointed to see quite unrestrained personal attacks on MNers.
[sorry to ruin cocktail mood will bog off now]

Sex On The Beach is very topical?

does original thread still exsist?

can someone link????

i dont much like either ruty, but, the moldies comments seem to pass by unchecked, unlike the other personal attacks. Seems saying "moldies" is like a qualifying prefix for an attack.

i dont drink, so a virgin sex on the beach seems somewhat impossible................!

there is a thread in chat i started needing consolation about having to give up red wine, if anyone wants to carry on the alcohol related theme

If I were you, vvv, I would be frantically trying to disassociate myself from my compadres. Particularly the Queen of Mean.
Rather than pushing the line which has enraged so many for so long.

[hands VVVQ a chilled Margarita and hopes it isn't too common]

[and onebat. And lou as it isn't red wine]
