Brilliant one at the moment about mortgage repayments, the poster lives in a house worth £1.30 million, pays £3300 off their interest only mortgage every month and also has £1 million in the bank. Yeah ok then. Surely if you had that much cash you’d pay off the interest only mortgage!

No, but fenjal and badedas has been mentioned which (no offence to anyone as they ARE lovely scents) confirms my suspicions that average age on Mumsnet is upwards of 47

someone has mentioned soap and glory though 😂

what I’m amazed at is there are comfortably about a million different (absolutely no exaggeration) shower gels and it turns out Mumsnet only buy a range of 7 between the lot of them.
 
Already bricking it over there about schools going on strike. ‘Will they stay open and get supply teachers in?!’ No hun they’re going on strike, the intention is to cause maximum disruption. You couldn’t get an ambulance last week why do you think schools will be different? Sorry you’ll have to look after your own kids for one day. 🙄 Im supply and morally I wouldn’t dream of crossing a picket line like the rest of supply staff out there.

I liked a thread on there about bar soap and how it is better for the environment than showergel. They then went on to list their favourite soap, including The English Soap Company, Dr Squatch and Creed - all selling for about a tenner a bar. I was thinking along the lines of Dove or Imperial Leather from the pound shop. :D

They absolutely _are_ arguing over shower gel. One has been asked to site her sources and then told to run along 🤣

They could argue about anything. I could start a thread saying my favourite colour is purple has anyone seen any purple bedding anywhere recently and it’d descend into chaos.

Bedding should only be white
Someone has seen some in Asda - who the hell shops in Asda think of the environment
Someone suggests £1300 bedding
Someone’s husband wouldn’t let her have purple bedding and she’s told to ltb
Buying new bedding is a waste of money
Blankets are better
Someone’s Nan never owned a duvet cover in her life and lived to 128

You're making it sound quite endearing! Like a load of eccentrics yapping at each other on a street corner

I’m sure I read that they don’t class a dove bar of soap as ‘proper’ soap on there. It has to be traditional soap to clean us disgusting germ ridden humans!
