Mumsnet on The Bubble!

[LadyThompson]

Mumsnet was just on The Bubble as a question! Justine was interviewed. Anyone watching?

why would i be saying i believe her apology and then calling it naff?

she sounded naff on the show, surprisingly so, really quite mean-spirited tbh. but then i felt that way too when i wanted children and it wasn't looking too favourable.

yes, me too.

EllieMental, now I've had a good, hard think about it and I've come up with a compromise. Shall we share him? I've got other commitments and self-congratulatory child raising to achieve so my free time is limited to the odd half an hour after I've watched QI and before bed. I can squeeze him in quite nicely then. Obviously, if our free time coincides then we're going to have to look at some sort of tag team scenario which could work rather well if we just establish some ground rules.

VCoren, I think, for me, starting your apology with 'hi guys' smacked of new girl in the playground trying to be cool. Wotcha Bitches or Oi Vipers would have eased you in better I feel. Maybe next time, eh?

I hope that was a genuine apology
and not on 'damage limitation' advice from her agent.
It was funny when Reginald Hunter said "I'm glad you said that I'd've sounded like an arsehole"

I wonder if VCoren's namechanged and got stuck into AIBU yet.

LadyThompson, are you saying Ellie and I aren't beautiful, flamehaired or otherwise. And I have merits that extend beyond journalism.

I refuse to say anything about face stuffing.

Oh we're all the same height when horizontal.

I think, ideally, I need him to dress up in period dress a la jaunts with Perkins. I'm thinking breeches and a riding crop tbh.

I'd settle for getting arseholed with him and having a brotherly affection for me, a la Perkins and licking his face when he has passed out.

I can do flamehaired....and journalism. (beauty, shmeauty)

Missed the show. Love Victoria Coren. So what if she hates Mumsnet, I would too if I wasn't a mum or hadn't been on the site, because all the media attention it's getting is making it sound like a real hell-hole, full of smug opinionated bullies. But I know otherwise.

Someone told her off on Twitter, so she popped her head in to apologise.

As we would say here in Dublin: "Fair play to you, VCoren".

(I'm reading her book at the mo, and it's fab.)
