It's a yes for toilet brushes from me 👍

Oh, if only we had the ‘voting function’ that MN is blessed with.
If we had it on here, I don’t think that I’d get out of bed in the morning without consulting it

I think that you might be okay Galaxy 🤞
JaneJudge has two sons
(I’m not entirely sure that this is relevant, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it is)

If there are two of you without loo brushes I wont be able to get over it.

OMG. It's over Fanny.

Oh no. Cross post. Devastated

I can’t wait to hear JaneJudge’s opinion on this!
All three of us are usually as one on GN Matters

OMG. It's over Fanny.

Don’t they just!
I’m firmly against the loo brush.
As was my mother, and my maternal grandmother (I’m not sure on the opinions of my paternal grandmother, I must check)
Please Galaxy, don’t judge me for this - it would be a shame to fall out after all this time

Yes to a loo brush. They are crazy on MN about loo brushes, but they do have a bit of a competitive cleanliness thing going on.

To move to big knickers, or not



As though it's a right of passage - like getting your first walking stick or Hotter shoes!

What laffs by the sound of it all😂
The only thing that’s surprised me about this forum is the small amount of health related threads, being an older person’s forum I expected more of them ( not that I want them btw)😄
I will now go and google what misandry means, hope it’s not too shocking😲

To move to big knickers?!
I wore big knickers when I was a size 8 (ah, those were the days…🥹)
50’s style ones. Very glam (and comfy!)

knickers which are known as 'harvest' as in all safely gathered in.

Right.
I’m throwing down the gauntlet.

Loo Brushes? 🚽
Yay or Nay? 👍 👎

You missed out loo brushes Terri!

That one crops up with monotonous regularity in the Four in a Bed programme as well .

And yet that would have cracked a smile in a terribly sad service, for everyone.

What about when someone mentions a sexual practice that most of us have'nt heard of. The brave ones dash off to google it and come back on to give their opinion of such gongs on. Others are a bit fearful of finding out what is involved and there is always someone who makes it their business to explain to all and sundry all about it (whether you want to know or not )

And those that are shocked and outraged that anyone should ever talk about sex, that sacred and sacrosanct act, private to one man and one woman only, never to be discussed or mentioned anywhere else, ever.

When my DH died, I was asked to tell all my favourite things about him and our long, loving marriage. I had loads to tell but also mentioned that our sex life (or "making love as we deemed it) was fabulous. Shock Horror! that I should mention such a thing, although it was a big, important part of our married life. So - sadly, not even a veiled reference was made during his funeral service.

Please don’t mention pearl necklaces. The ones to be clutched or the other variety…

🤣 🤣 🤣

I SO remember the misandry posts. Always having a pop at the lovely late Phoenix

Yes, missing the point entirely when the lovely phoenix related amusing tales about Mr P, whom she obviously loved dearly.

The irony was astonishing.

I think Phoenix dealt with him very well I do remember her saying to him on one occasion "oh just piss off!" sometimes a forthright approach is the only way!

To move to big knickers, or not…usually a question which led to a plethora of knicker styles preferred by posters when replying but not really helping the OP decide🤣

Indeed.

Knickers, pants, sloggis.

Where to purchase, what to spend, full bum coverage or not?

I think that there are far more than 10% of members who are Scottish.
It’s nothing scientific - just my casual observation
