ITV's This Morning programme have invited me and Justine on to talk about the Toddlers book and want to also invite a couple of Mumsnetters to talk about how they got into Mumsnet and what Mumsnet means to them etc.

The date will probably be 4th or 5th Feb, they will need us between 9.30 and 12 and are prepared to pay travel expenses.

Anyone out there interested in snuggling up on the sofa? If you are, please put a bit of blurb about yourself here - how many children you have/how old, how you got into Mumsnet and what it means to you etc - so This Morning can decide who they might fancy inviting. If you do volunteer we may have to pass your email details on to This Morning, in case they want to chat to you, so shout now if you'd rather we didn't do that.

Thanks,

MNHQ

Hi all

This Morning will make ultimate decision on which Mumsnetter they like the sound of but we're still waiting on confirmation of the day they want to do, which we know is crucial for some of you.

We should know more tomorrow when we've spoken with them and will report back.

Thanks to all the volunteers - wish you could all come - we need all the help we can get

Squonk: yes, you're right - it's not today. We're not quite sure when it's going to be, tbh. (Things gone awry, we think, in a snow-related kind of way).

We'll let you all know when we know more ourselves.

Guys, guys, guys - enough already. We don't count posts here, we don't rank posters, we do not have a table of who counts as a "real" Mumsnetter and who doesn't. This would be anti the spirit of MN in our view.

On MN anyone who who joins is a Mumsnetter and all are equal (save for hughjarss).

The Telly just want someone to explain why they use MN and why it's important to them, they are not looking for the embodiment of the perfect Mumsnetter, and nor should we (IOVHO).

KerryMum1 could you possibly change your name do you think to avoid confusion? Thanks so much.

Sorry Kerrymum1 don't get the significance of the - not so much bad manners as confusing...

Hi All

Just a quick update - This Morning have now said they want a couple of Mumsnetters who have contributed to the book (rather than who have a good Mumsnet tale to tel) so they're doing a trawl of volunteers from here who also appear in the book and hopefully we might get somewhere next week! Apologies for the initial false information, and of course if you've already rifled through the book, spotted your name AND would like to go on This Morning shout now.

They will probably want to talk to a few folks on the phone before deciding who they want.

Sorry again for any confusion on this, we only managed to speak with them directly yesterday.

Thanks to everyone who has volunteered so far
