Zounds! It is Shakespeare Week, apparently.

To celebrate, we happy few, we band of brothers* thought we'd ask you clever folk to put on an antic disposition and post as if the cast of Shakespeare's plays had access to Mumsnet, similar to the classic Biblical Mumsnet thread

For example:

  • SPORN - Out, out damned spot!
  • DH has become really obsessed about an old handkerchief he gave me, is this a red flag?
  • Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have to use tutors....

The three posts that tickle MNHQ the most will be bound for a prize all too precious (or whatever we can find in the cupboard).

So if MN be the food of love, post on....

  • If you thought we wouldn't take this opportunity to shoehorn in and abuse Shakespearean quotes in for no good reason, you thought wrong.

We do advise all our members to be aware that not everyone in Cyprus is who they say they are.

Although we're awed daily by the astonishing support the members of the Venetian army give each other through life's trickier twists and possible infidelities, we'd always caution anyone never to give more of themselves to an ensign, emotionally or financially (put money in thy purse), than they can afford to spare.

We'd also like to remind folks looking at you Iago that misleading or deliberately inflammatory behaviour is against our talk guidelines.

If you have any suspicions, please do report them to us, rather than letting the green eyed monster, that doth mock the meat it feeds on, take over the thread.

Reddit is empty, and all the trolls are here.

(though obviously I'm using hyperbole as there are NO TROLLS ON MY WATCH)

But soft! What light through yonder window breaks? It is the page we made!
