Im a mummy but would really like to join this forum as it seems much friendlier than the mum forums Ive seen. Is that ok?

Good morning and welcome to the forum bigbluecheese smile

Welcome! You are obviously much more mature and sensible than people in the other place - just like us!! grin

Hello bigblue welcome to GN, so you have come over from the dark side grin

JessM Fri 26-Oct-12 08:25:53

Welcome. About once every 3 months we have a big fight and then the rest of the time we are supportive and lovely. We've just got over the fight so you should be safe to settle in. grin

I'm not a Nanny yet either [but soon will be] so welcome smile

Welcome bigblue We don't bite, or at least not very often!

Welcome to both smile. Our forums are a strange mixture of compassion, common sense, whimsy and outright fantasy!

With a good fight thrown in here and there (but it is not obligatory to join in. Just stay on the sidelines and disagree silently with everyone)

Welcome bigblue smile I agree with Elegran some areas I just don't go. On the whole this is a nice place to visit and we are a lovely lot, not just saying it I have met some of them.

Welcome bigblue - if you are mature and sensible, you may need to exercise restraint and diplomacy at times....gringrin but you should have fun smile
