If mumsnetters find showers ‘aggressive’ then I think crackers are definitely a no-go.
How to they cope in heavy rain?

Here’s today’s “that never happened” (of course it as a rice cake…)

Omg was I the woman?

No JK, but someone put a lunchbox of food in my Wheely bin the other day and I considered writing a post on the Facebook group until my husband told me to cop on 😂 in my defence, if the bin men see food in your bin they won’t take it.

Someone complained on mumsnet that someone put food in their wheelie bin and they were given ‘advice’ of posts to put on Facebook to tell people not to do it because it causes maggots or the bin men won’t take it. They had lots of words like henceforth and thereby but didn’t really say anything so I’m not sure if op did post or if they helped.
 
Can someone send Gin?

I've seen a skirt on the what are you wearing for Christmas dinner thread and I love it.
Is this the end? Do I now have to start hating my husband and never leaving my house??

I wouldn’t worry about it, he’s probably been having an affair for the last two years anyway, which you’ll discover when you see an expensive handbag hidden away, which you assume is your Christmas present but he doesn’t give you on Christmas Day.

Though actually I think last years thread was a designer bag, it could be shoes.
 
This is yet another reason I’ll never pass for posh. There was me thinking they were going to watch a stage version of the 1970s tv classic The Onedin Line.

Tbh, I had my suspicions from the start but the more the thread goes on and the more the OP drops (doctor, 16 year old daughter who loves her inflatable Sister Jane dress is a classical singer etc etc), the more certain I am that it's a piss take.

It wasn't just the excessive gratuitous brand and place name dropping thing (even people who live like that don't talk like that). It was the fact that for quite a long time now, the word on the (Bond) Street has been that tea at the Ritz is overpriced and shite. Got too popular, victim of its own success. If you want a posh cream tea round there, it's much better a hundred yards down the road at The Wolseley. As any fule kno.

(Please don't hate me or get the wrong idea. I admit it...I'm a Londoner.)
