I was meant to be going to a Christmas Fayre today but it was cancelled due to bad weather. As it was precooked tickets only, visitors (and stall holders) are understandably upset and want refunds. The social media posts are full of MN types saying things like "at least you're not living in Gaza" "at least you could afford tickets in the first place" etc

Was that at Layer Marney?
 
This surely can't be real?
Entitled 'is this inappropriate touching by m.i.l? '
Apparently she can't keep her hands off her married adult son.
The op goes on to say this ...

If you search the original poster's name, there's even a thread on Reddit about his/her trolling.

Hilarious, thank you for the head's up. :ROFLMAO:

Edited to add that 'she' even made Newsweek once with trolling excellence. 👌😆

Woman Raging Over 'Intrusive' Neighbors Checking In on Her Slammed Online

Several users on Mumsnet said the woman was being "unreasonable" and that the neighbors were likely "genuinely concerned" for her welfare.

I've just seen a post on the thread with a tattler defending her, saying tattle etc is inaccurate etc.

Fellow tattlers, we have an infiltrator 😯

I agree. And it's just a rip off of an old Reddit thread that's done the rounds on social media again recently.

As she's been brought up, I have a very minor question re. Alice Evans that's not for her thread and there's nowhere else to ask...

How did that thread get so big? He's not exactly A list (is he? I think he'd be a 15 pointer in the Pointless picture round with a risk someone would call him Ewan McGregor) and I had literally never heard of her. Is it because the tabloids picked it up and she's such a nutball?

My take on it is that she could be “one of us”. Just another podgy middle-aged, “wine o’clock” instagram over sharer who went stratospheric when her long-suffering husband moved on.

Pure popcorn behaviour for us all to watch. The smug, MN “mean girl” who’s been a mean girl since she was in high school sabotaging herself at every step.

She’s nothing special - but we all enjoy watching a bleep get their comeuppance.
 
Anyone see the engagement ring thread, the Husband had 100k savings but got her a £150 ring and wants a nicer ring

apparently he only married her for the visa anyways lol

i love these threads as its always a competition to between the cheapest ring and happiest marriages.

the cheaper the ring the happier the marriage it seems 🤣🤣

also for a bunch of pearl clutching idiots who hate us and the forum cause we are ‘witches’ why they so desperate for codes to join us here?

Yup! Absolutely shambles.

The organisers are going through deleting any comments that state facts about how poorly it has been organised and are going through liking all the MN "think of the bigger picture" posts.

They originally said full refunds for all on their socials but the email cancelling the event (that went to junk as they used a different email address) says they need to speak to their insurers!

I must have the happiest marriage then. £64 from Argos for my wedding ring 😂
 
There’s one in 30 days. For 11 years dad has done 11 hour round trips. He’s been paying for her to meet half way. But she wants to relax and enjoy her weekend. He’s now taking her to court and she’s got signed off due to the stress. Some posters have commented they remember the last thread with the exact same responses.

How materialistic. We didn't bother with rings, a ceremony or a party. DH just threw some mud at me in our back garden and that was it.

Yes, well, we got married in a sewer, served canal water and bracken and the best man punched everyone in the face as they came in. Everyone still says it was the best wedding they've ever been to and it proves we love each other more than anyone else because we know what's important.
 
By the way, the "DH has done it again" thread in AIBU is hilarious. Husband tasked with buying OP a dressing gown and slippers for Christmas and she hates what he's picked. Now someone's saying any man who wants to see his wife in that is gay, deletions have begun and someone needs us all to know how much her DH is turned on by seeing her in tartan.
