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

I should apply for a job as a journalist - I'd fit right in!

OBM. I don't want them cast off or cast out. It's too damn attractive. I'd be a regular then.

Has this run its course now? It sort of has do you think? [squints]

Sorry, it was an attempt to be silly re MrJustabout's undergraduate mistake in mis-spelling your name.

Yes, MrJA - do you write for the Independent? [hard stare] [realises she shouldn't joke about things like this in a time of national emergency]

Oh, good, we're all joking [does jig] [eats jelly]

Well welcome back riven and goodbye needmorecoffee

As its my threventieth birthday on New Years Eve, I expect you all to have stopped this by then.

CITH, you don't look a day over eleventy-three! Happy birthday for NYE!

Blowing my chances of a stellar journalistic career, I'll correct my earlier statement and try at least to be accurate. It was Flihgtattendant who indicated that Lapin was feeling awful.

Thanks rev, I'll just go count cards with Tom Cruise shall I?

hunker -there are people on here [Moldies and not] who have changed the way I think about things - the way I react and the way I treat people (I like to think at least). I think it's inevitable that this has made me trust them to a certain extent (as much as you can trust someone on the internet). You were one of them. Tiktok - I don't think I'd advise people to check her facts. VVVQV (apart from the time I thought she was you ). It's not all bfing but maybe it seems that way because it was an emotional time. A lot of people on the SN board have increased my knowledge and chellenged my beliefs. Never again will I park in a M&T spot when I'm on my own. I'm not including the people from my P-N club as the rose tinted glasses are still firmly on there.
Not sure if that helps or just sounds pathetic, but there you go.

lol cat and rev

is he looking at you in a puzzled - but crucially, tousled - manner?

Actually, Trollope and tousled are a mis-match, so strike that.

sternly loving?

that was to rev re mrjustabout not understanding jokes and that sort of thing. I realize in retrospect it might sound like code.

Hve I killed the thread with my self pitying whine? Sorry

I don't think that sounds pathetic, SPB. I am really sorry if I've upset you - truly.

I have a vision of MrJustAbout visiting a pile of puke now...

Oh. And there was me thinking you meant Joanna.

I thought tousled Vicar's husband being
chased around by middle-aged sex deprived mothers in need of gossip while admiring the upright intellect of the actual Vicar sounded pretty bang on to me.

Not that I've actually read any of her books you realise

Is anyone else having a nostalgia-fest watching the thread count?

1992, 1993, 1994, 1995...

I was particularly nostalgic about 1985, PW. Glad someone else was doing the same.

never seen a thread this big before..

is it a record??

arf @ wilf

Are we at 2000 yet?
