Mumsnet #51 I can guess what dress size you are from your comments alone

You’re not including mini golf in that, I hope? Drunk mini golf is one of life’s greatest pleasures, especially played at the summit of the Great Orme surrounded by feral Kashmiri goats.

Mini golf should be the only golf. Until I see tiger woods hit a ball over a bridge and through a windmill on the first go I'm not going to be impressed by his golf skills.
 
Mumsnetters really can start an argument in an empty room, can't they? I've just read a thread where the OP's partner refused to give her daughter a lift to see her dying dad and there was a significant minority of posters saying "well you should learn to drive, poor put upon man". And now one where a teenager gave her mum a present that had been lying around the house for a few years and clearly the OP is grabby and a terrible parent. Wtf is wrong with people? I swear they just decide to take a contrary position for the fun of it.

No they don't.
 
Did youse catch the one where OP complained her husband shared the contents of a gifted F&M hamper with his team at work and, would you know, the bastard didn't even bother to bring the empty hamper home.

Is there a dadsnet somewhere? I'd love to get the male perspective on all the DP/DH complaints that are coming in lately. He shook his head at her!! How dare he be so passive aggressive!!

There's a dadsnet section on mumsnet, it was mainly about sex before the sex section which is mostly men posting. I don't know if it's very active now, I see most posts from men in relationships outside of the sex section which doesn't show in active and I don't go and look at because it's weirder than even AIBU 😂
 
I bring you...Pintrest Wanties

Well having perused the boards this morning I realise I am the worlds worst mother having bought my kids more than one present, presents of things they want or are fun rather than practical things they need and have not booked the week up with Christmas days out that they would neither enjoy or want to go to but bribed them to attend for the sake of the magic of Christmas

I will try to do better next year

That thread though about the DP refusing a lift, yeah he might have been fed up but it was the last lift required FFS! I would give a stranger who flagged me down in the street a lift to a dying parent, nevermind my partner's kid. (Although the mum clearly takes the piss with the amount of lifts she takes off him, it was the wrong day to make his stand!)
