Datun??? Datun are you threatening people? That would be a huge surprise? Datun is direct but she most certainly is not given to threats…

She is also not really our ‘leader’ as such, but we do like to tease her.

and I'm presuming as Glinner has his own account here datun isn't actually Graham!

right back to prostrating myself on the floor to the shrine of datun, although last time I did this I did my back in and people had to bring me snacks.

Beetle, thank god you're here. Quick take over while I do emergency custard eating.

I thought it was Arabella, or maybe she is leading the Scottish contingent, or is that boiled? I'm so confused.

No, I'm just the official poem collector!

Boiledbeetle · 17/09/2023 20:37

ArabeIIaScott · 17/09/2023 20:12

Oh fuck me, I hope not. I've no idea what's going on. Beetle! Help! I'm being oppressed!

this one is all for you to claim!

Boiledbeetle · 17/09/2023 20:40

as you overlordess. I do decree that you give over 3/4 of your wages to me weekly.

i'll accept payment in Tunnocks, cheese or cake.

anybody trying to fob me off with a dark Tunnocks or a lemon Drizzle cake will be shunned for eternity.

A book, you say?

And where might this book be purchased?

(I mean if there’s to be a derailing let’s make it a plug, eh?)

Im sure our resident TRA will be delighted to help shift a few copies, nice of you to bring him up!

no. No Nicola. you had your turn

and we all know how that worked out!

Boiledbeetle · 17/09/2023 20:43

god.... five minutes is actually quite a long time isn't it!

Igneococcus · 17/09/2023 20:43

You won't have time @RealFeminist what with all that memoir-writing that your doing.

Boiledbeetle · 17/09/2023 20:44

and I'm handing back to Arabella, and if she doesn't get back quick enough the Real feminist is awaiting in the wings

Waitwhat23 · 17/09/2023 20:47

I am happy to acknowledge Arabella as the Scottish leader on high (sorry Real, you're a tad too dodgy).

I'll bring the Tunnocks and Abernethys and a flask of hot chocolate (ahem...it may be adulterated) for the vigil.

Oh, good idea!! I should have thought of that but I am still out sick so my brain is not really working at optimum.

Here is the thread about Graham’s book. Many of us are looking forward to it. I mean Richard Ayoade said it was great!

Graham Linehan’s Book | Mumsnet

Datun ate my hamster.

And she once bit the head off a bat.

And is actually Glinner’s sock account. I mean, they’ve never posted at exactly the same Time have they? 🧐

DialSquare · 17/09/2023 20:55

Good point Faffertea. There's a kicking people up the arse connection too!

So much custard! I do hope though that the Pastel de Nata is coming soon…. I will have finished the bottle of wine … but don’t worry… it is MN and I remembered I can magic another !

Thisusernamenotavailable · 17/09/2023 21:01

Can one of you leaders please tell me what I should have for the dinner?

PASTA DEL NATS

Helleofabore · 17/09/2023 21:12

By the way, did you all see that I spent a couple of hours watching a guy from Oz splice together some different footage from the Melbourne rally, that makes it pretty clear that the neo Nazis were there to support the other group who had a permit to protest that day? The lead nazi declared they were never Allie’s of the Let Women Speak group but were part of the other group and part of their decision was because they wanted to force the Liberal Party to do something about Moira.

That was some other falsehood that Bizza tried to make out had any credibility on their thread. It is quite underhanded dishonest isn’t it, to post such falsehoods in the aim of a gotcha… they have been doing it all over threads, along with slurs and denigrating women and making defamatory remarks.

Thanks, I did see that but had got a bit confused. Had the other group actually invited them?

Nope. Not the Nats!

Helleofabore · 17/09/2023 21:22

It could be that they are actually part of that other group arabella. I am going to check it out in a day or so. They certainly seem to have been with them for protesting DQST and some other issues such as anti-covid lock downs and vaccines.

However, I did lose track of who the ‘cookers’ were - I know they were referring to people supporting illicit drugs but I confess I did get lost what they were protesting there for. They were the people they referred to as the ‘Byron Bay’ group (I suspect they are anti-covid protesters). The guy also found that some of the neo Nazis are anti-abortion too.

IcakethereforeIam · 17/09/2023 21:22

Yes I saw. Hope you're feeling better soon @Helleofabore

BTW who got custardy?
