How about a mumsnet pin badge?

I'm always wondering if the other mums I come into contact with are mumsnetters too.

I think it would be great if we had a little pin badge we could buy to wear, something discrete, only other mumsnetters would know what it meant

Don't you know the handshake yet Memoo?

Furball · 15/01/2009 18:21

there is one - and tshirts, bags etc

hang on, I'll see if I can find the site

NimChimpsky · 15/01/2009 18:22

Just discreetly slip fanjo and norks into the convo.

HelenBurns · 15/01/2009 18:25

You can have my lentil weaver bag if you like. I find it a little too, erm, identifying!

I that site still selling those Cod bits and bobs? Collectors' items now!

I have a badge with the bat on, which I got from a site run by MrsBadger - don't know if she, or the site, are still around.

ScottishMummy · 15/01/2009 18:48

LOL a cliquey lil badge?why not go whole hog and have funny handshake and passwords.like fanjo

i like my anonymity.have no desire to seek out MN folk

MaryAnnSingleton · 15/01/2009 18:49

agree with Scottishmummy

HelenBurns · 15/01/2009 19:07

It was Enid in 2005. Fanjo I mean.

EyeballsintheSky · 15/01/2009 19:09

I have a MN bag and I asked here if you saw my bag would you come and say hello to me? I got flamed for being a saddo with no life outside MN! I'd like to know if someone at my music group etc was a MNetter...

nappyaddict · 15/01/2009 19:10

Was it lapin who designed all the things on the website? There was badges originally with all the emoticons on them. Perhaps CAT her?

EyeballsintheSky · 15/01/2009 19:11

I got a badge too Think it was Lapin. They're all still available anyway.

ScottishMummy · 15/01/2009 19:12

why do you have a MN bag?aesthetic?or do you genuinely affiliate self with MN?would you buy a face book bag

HelenBurns · 15/01/2009 19:12

NA she's not here any more

siriusmew · 15/01/2009 19:13

OOOHHH! I'd buy a pin!!

ScottishMummy · 15/01/2009 19:16

i dont get the need to publicly affiliate with MN branding.why?a bit keen bean over enthusiastic

nappyaddict · 15/01/2009 19:16

Oh no how come?

ScottishMummy · 15/01/2009 19:17

LittleLapin and twiglet are moldie defectors

EyeballsintheSky · 15/01/2009 19:18

Dunno really. I've always been a sucker for merchandising. Too many concerts when I was younger

ScottishMummy · 15/01/2009 19:20

dont like conspicuous branding.avoid brands with prominent logo,who wants FCUK on their chest,really icky
