End of an era - MP hanging up her... erm... keyboard

It is with deep sadness that we must inform you that Morningpaper has, after four glorious years, decided to retire her mouse and cease to produce the Talk round up. Apparently she has a "proper job with benefits". This Friday's round-up will be her last (so do make sure you're preferences are set to receive it.)

Thankfully we have been rescued from the slough of despond into which we at MN Towers had tumbled by the news that none other than Aitch, who currently scribbles the TV round up for our parenting newsletter, has agreed to step into the breach. We're delighted that's she's cheap available and ready to pick up where MP will very soon be leaving off. So more bumsex then.

cross posted with your last - you are spookily ahead of me! Though I still want the airbrushed botox-Aitch.

FrogmellaMoonbeam · 21/04/2010 21:29

Im still all set up to receive these but they stopped coming about a year ago. Would be really good if it could be sorted since a few of us seem to be having this problem.

Good Look to both of you hope you both do well in your new jobs!

Kewcumber · 21/04/2010 22:20

I will miss you MP (especially as you quoted me once or twice) but if I'm honest Aitch has always been my favorite letter...

AitchTwoZone · 21/04/2010 22:39

c'mere, i've got orders to embalm you... the queen is dead, long live the queen.

(MP i'm shitting it, i genuinely always read your round ups and think 'ho ho i'd be SHIT at that by comparison'. i didn't mention this to Justine though).

theyoungvisiter · 21/04/2010 22:40

oh you two, get a room. Ew.

[embalms both and locks in tardis]

AitchTwoZone · 21/04/2010 22:45

no, hang on, that's star trek, innit?

LadyBiscuit · 21/04/2010 23:07

I can't imagine the pressure aitch - you've got to be witty and urbane on a consistent basis

Rather you than me

solo · 22/04/2010 01:21

My preferencesare set, but I haven't receive the MorningPaper into my box for about a year

tortoiseonthehalfshell · 22/04/2010 01:29

Maybe check your spam filters, those of you with difficulty - those sorts of mass emails tend to get caught quite often.

MP, it's been wonderful, I think we've made quite a team; you, diligently recording my words of wisdom, I, casting pearls before swine ...erm, I haven't really thought this through, have I?

Heathcliffscathy · 22/04/2010 01:31

sayonara woman. i hope this means MORE not less mn-ing!!!

good luck aitch!

ooo two of my fave mners!
