and a respectful chortle.

Sorry.

Oh jingl, you're so droll.

It's a comment I would never have thought of in a month of Sunday's. (absent' s)

Amazing in its wit.

Nobody has ever thought me sedate or boring. They'd have to catch up with me first.

I couldn't care less. Like your comment, absent

Well we've got our uses then - even if we are old and virtually invisible.

They are quick to pop over here when they need advice, which is quite nice really.

Me neither!

Nor me absent

You know something – I don't care what they think about us.

Duh! Thank you Galen, never seen that before. .

That's the buttons labelled 123 not the numbers

Press 123 then#+= buttons

Whoops, well, where are the square brackets on an IPad?

Well, I was shocked (blush) . Too many naughty rude words for me!

But it is said that I'm too serious sometimes.

But we are the mums and dads of mumsnetters, and what else did Larkin say?
It's all our fault!

Philip Larkin said sex was invented in 1963, oh yes, you are right Absent we did invent it.

And Larkin put it in writing, so we can prove it!

so we did, absent so we did!

Ana don't know whether I have time or inclination to post on Mumsnet regularly though, Would rather be boring on Gransnet Must get back to my knitting, baking, gardening, reading etc etc

I would guess that the shagging thread is just an example of a generation that thinks it invented sex whereas we know that we did.

Well done, lucyinthesky! A blow for us all...

Ana - you've 'outed' me

DD is a member of what is now Real Mothers, but used to be Bad Mothers' Club. I have a look now and then, and find it much more down to earth than MN.

Ana not me!
