Dizzy In the words of Nick Knowles, the face of Saturday night quiz shows and DIY SOS, "Your name is...........NOT on the list". I had a quick check for you and can't see it there. You should have got an email from MNHQ if it is.

Rhubarb01 · 19/08/2015 19:30

Actually, I'm beginning to think this being on the list business is some sort of divine punishment for having the temerity to post on other threads from time to time when I should be devoting my entire time to the OG thread and not moonlighting during OG/CJ time. What's your excuse then Kelly?

orphan · 19/08/2015 19:54

What do you mean you dare to post on other threads rhubarb?? I don't think being on The List is punishment enough. I think Manu should be sent round to 'entertain' you - now that is punishment.

cjwoofwoof · 19/08/2015 19:57

My name has appeared on many a list as well as a few warrants and subpoenas in the past, as orph will testify, but I don't think I'm one of the "chosen" ones this time, although I've had a few weird emails lately purporting to be from MNHQ. Wish things would go back to normal - I can't cope with IT glitches Confused

cjwoofwoof · 19/08/2015 19:59

Manu is a one-woman man orph and I do not lend him out to any old person on The List Angry no, not even Rhu the Thread Traitor

orphan · 19/08/2015 19:59

woof please may I be your literary agent as I feel I could look good on a podium accepting an award on your behalf in the Quality Smut and Wit Awards? Obvs you'd be tied up literally knowing Manu and I'd have to bathe in the glory in your place.

orphan · 19/08/2015 20:02

Speaking of literary geniuses, where's spo?

Rhubarb01 · 19/08/2015 20:11

Never wanted Manu anyway woof so there! Ya boo sucks to you (as my mum would say!)

orphan · 19/08/2015 20:19

Hee hee rhu you've brought back memories of woof and I when we were kids and running our dinner money protection racket. That was our riposte to the dinner ladies who tried to shut us down. I was the brains behind the operation whilst woof was the 'heavy'.

cjwoofwoof · 19/08/2015 20:37

Manu happens to be an expert at ya boo sucks Rhu so how your mum knows that is a bit of a worry Grin no hard feelings though, unless you're Manu of course in which case I'd like plenty.

I've spent 40 years being Terry McCann to your Arthur Daley orph

cjwoofwoof · 19/08/2015 20:40

orph does that make me a SQWAT? I like it - sounds rude so I'm happy

Rhubarb01 · 19/08/2015 21:03

Oh Orphan and woof I can see you now as little kids in the playground. Worryingly, in my mind's eye you are both dressed as little lads in striped blazers, short trousers and caps reminiscent of The Beano. I bet you also ran a book on who had the best conkers!

cjwoofwoof · 19/08/2015 21:08

Of course I always got the best conkers Rhu

orphan · 19/08/2015 21:14

The ferocity with which you knocked the conkers together was a sight to behold woof.

orphan · 19/08/2015 21:16

Watching you stringing them brought tears to my eyes.

Dizzydots · 19/08/2015 21:16

Ahh thanks for checking Rhu, my reward then for never posting on another thread took me long enough to pluck up courage to join in with this one might have enjoyed the armed guard tho!

cjwoofwoof · 19/08/2015 21:28

And the whole of the male 5th form never walked in a straight line again orph after tampering with my Niner

Onlygirljen · 19/08/2015 22:00

Right, fess up then woof - where did you hide the cameras at my most recent family gathering?! Your characterisation of my nearest and dearest is spot on..Grin. Between you and whaj I've got tears rolling down my cheeks, some major comedy prowess on display in FF land tonight! Smile

Onlygirljen · 19/08/2015 22:10

Been cheered up by many things this evening - a Wednesday night g&t, the very funny FF, plus my friend at work knew how murderous I was feeling this morning and sent me some Tom Hardy to cheer me up (she doesn't know of my CJ obsession but TH is a close second). Oh the absolute loveliness ignoring the fact that he has bigger tits than me.... GrinGrin

Evening all. Manic evening then chilled out so just checking on here now.
Strange things about with Mumsnet and FB not working right. Dizzy have sent you pm to try and sort tomorrow. Not sure why the group isn't showing up for you.

Ah ice has there been a problem with FB too? It took ages for it to come up on my laptop this morning. I kept thinking it was my laptop (or me). Never thought it was FB itself. I rebooted the laptop twice as well.

I've just told CJ he can stay as long as he likes, or until BK contacts me. I have to say, he's more or less cleared the ironing for me and I feel a bit guilty because I fell asleep after tea - the result of a hectic holiday and some more wine (well, the water round here still has to be boiled.... it's safer to drink wine!).

orphan · 19/08/2015 23:42

Blimey totally confused now. Couldn't log in or change password despite being asked to, but suddenly I can. Now I've no idea what my password is as I don't know which of the several I jabbed in has worked! Confused

Ilovelblue · 19/08/2015 23:43

Struth, this password thing is getting a bit much. MN forced me off again - anyone else get that? I've had 3 goes at doing password resets before it accepted anything. I'm pretty good at strong passwords as a rule because we have to use them every 28 days at work but it wouldn't take any of them (and I hadn't used them before on here either).

orphan · 20/08/2015 00:24

Can't work out how to log in on my tablet (am on phone now). Each time I attempt a pw reset, I just get a message saying it hasn't worked for the following reasons but then doesn't say what they were! I've tried complex pws including numbers etc but no luck. Sad

icemistOBE · 20/08/2015 06:37

I had the same issue ilove needed 10 Characters which is a lot! Hopefully this will soon stop.

Nickel and Dizzy I've pm'd you both the link to the FB group, you should be able to use that. Let me know if it doesn't, I am working today but can try and sort it this evening (will be after boys in bed)
