Oh la la. Tres bien idea.

(Read this in a French accent. It's great all this global lark.)

Must nip off to buy some garlic and brioche. How amazing to be able to access MN from SOOOOO far away.

Bad news Cyb,Al Gore has already beaten you to it.

Damn! You've all figured out where I post from.....Cleethorpes and not a tropical island in the Indian Ocean.

I suspect from the DoY pov we are global because I am in Scotland!

Isle of Wight - nearly on the equator.

weegiemum · 23/02/2010 22:50

I'm Scottish in Scotland.

She'd probably shoot me - isn't that what the Royals do here?

Hassled · 23/02/2010 22:52

She does try though, bless .

I like her. She's never going to go away - I like her sheer bloody-minded persistence.

MaryMotherOfCheeses · 23/02/2010 23:01

Hmmm.

I did start to type various things which comprised ffs and wtf.

But then, MN isn't really global is it. OK, it is in the sense that it's a website. We tap into nice middle class networks in Aus and US and so on, but why would a mother in, say, Mumbai, tap into it?

It's not truly international is it. We're linked by a common culture of either living in Britain or linked to Britain.

Maybe the spokesperson (I note it wasn't DoY who said it but her spokesperson) has an interesting point.

Valpollicella · 23/02/2010 23:03

ah she's ok. Just might have been getting her 'people' to do some research first

NonnoMum · 24/02/2010 10:38

Can't wait to find out what she might post about her MiL (or ex MiL).

"I can't even blardy spend Christmas with my dds. They have to go to Nana's. It's not like she's the blardy Queen or owt..."
"oh, forgot, she is..."

BigBadMummy · 24/02/2010 10:41

Let's see how the bumsex threads go down in Saudi Arabia / Iran / Dubai, shall we?

SerenityNowakaBleh · 24/02/2010 13:13

And people say that the Royal family are out of touch ... pscha!

NonnoMum · 24/02/2010 20:06

The new thread topic will be toe sex...
