NEW Quote of the week thread for 2009

[GeraldineMumsnet]

because the other one seemed to be hard to find and was getting very long. All suggestions warmly welcomed

if ever a website was about encouragement and support and viperishness its MN. When your our fabulousness is recognised, shout it out!

thread obv

MN has been pretty fabulous all round this week. Might encourage email receivers who do not post to, er, post? AND it shows off about the fab award. AND I've never been QOTW

Anything in here will sum up this week on Mumsnet. Roll on bumsex day I say - at least we'll have something to laugh at.

Incidentally thank you for the biscuit.

Actually, give MamaG QOTW for this

There are some good ones

"Obviously, we didn't speak for sometime after this incident. But, in hindsight I'm glad it happened because no matter how much I might spend shopping, MrQueen simply daren't ask me how much I've blown because he knows I'll reply 'Considerably less than the price of a BMW with a private plate on it'.

Swedes on the prospects for the British education system:

"Before too long a state secondary education will be a series of online multiple choice worksheets, for which nothing less than an A* Gold grade will be awarded. The LEA will have a webcam view to ensure there are no Digestive crumbs on the students' keyboards, and the LEA will carry out Health and Safety checks ont he swivel chairs, not less than annually. Most swivel chairs will be upholstered in black boiled-wool-effect polyester but there will be a few in patent red leatherette, with brass casters. These will be reserved for children whose parents have a relationship with their local vicar."

Go to Tools, then Internet Options, then Security, and select 'disable cookies.'

On the 'I hate the biscuit' thread - topical without controversy and vv funny

Great... so you were struggling this week? Scraping the bottom of the barrel?

Okay- yes, I'm thrilled to bits it was me... but really, it was so mundane

How the hell could Threadie not be QOTW? (especially as she's not actually even here! )

I like your quote Nancy.
'Disable cookies' is funny and did make me LOL - but we couldn't have had QOTW referring to biscuits as well surely.

I'd like to nominate bastian for the wonderful:

"finally, someone to talk binary with"

on this thread

I wonder if bastian is on the wrong forum if he/she is wanting to talk dirty binary with us ...
