MNetter would have a meltdown - I'm getting a new washing machine delivered today. BY PEOPLE. Most certainly a man. I've naturally already hidden all of my laundry - of which there is plenty, given that the old machine gave up the ghost, but of course, this particular man might just be the one that is into worn undies. Should I hide behind the sofa? Given how teeny-tiny I am I might just fit, however the issue is that I can't see from there whether he will maybe decide to look for the laundry bin in a room completely away from where the machine is going and I might not be able to catch him in time to stop him taking a tit. What do I do?
My advice is to double check your old machine if they’re taking that one away. Was mortified when we swapped our old tumble drier and proceeded to watch the poor delivery guy pull out the tiniest thong that my ‘D’D had left in it. Im sure the poor guy was trying to work out how I’d get my fat arse in it 😂

Bahahah, omg that made me laugh out loud, thank you for that!
Bf and I had a grant time yesterday trying to lift to old bastard and putting it onto one of those boards with wheels to get it out of the room. I think any wild things would have come out by now, the amount of lifting the thing saw yesterday.

The countries where French is spoken aren't very MN surely apart from France.
Canada, too American
Belgium, too many frites and chocolate
Senegal, Mali, Gabon...well too African and poor
Haiti, too poor
Martinique, too much rum, children might be influenced
Madagascar, not since those dreadful films with Sascha Baron Cohen

Oh hang on...
Switzerland, lots of rules and especially no noise after 10pm. Ok this is perfect...
Sorry this is from ages ago in the thread, but it reminds me of my favourite anecodote about Switzerland. In 2014 an Ethiopian flight was hijacked by the copilot, who wanted to negotiate political asylum for himself in Europe. As it flew over Italy and France it was escorted by Italian and French fighter jets respectively, which is the normal procedure in a hijack situation in case they have to shoot it down before the hijackers fly it into a building or something. When it reached Swiss airspace they called the Swiss air force to take over, but were told it wouldn't be possible because it was after 5pm and therefore outside their normal working hours. Maybe this is the answer to the eternal mystery of where the six-figure earners who have time to sit on Mumsnet all day come from? 🤔

(BTW the plane landed safely in Geneva, no-one was hurt and the co-pilot gave himself up voluntarily to police and was allowed to remain in Switzerland. Also the Swiss air force started operating 24/7 after this.)

Well, it clearly wasn’t your DD that left the thong in there. It’s obvious proof that your husband / partner is having an affair. Even if you don’t have a husband / partner.

tit never thought of that 🙈 will check his phone later and report back.
Although him having an affair would be preferable to finding out they were his 😂

Is it your housekeeper’s tiny thong that had fallen out of DHs suit pocket?
I’m not that stupid- after BIL ran off with the Swedish au pair all our staff have to be 168 months older than me and stick to a strict diet of carbs. I did once catch the lady who does my laundry eyeing up my large salad so gave her 2 weeks notice and changed the locks.

I sacked my housekeeper and nanny on the spot for gross misconduct when I discovered them eating a cherry tomato that was for my lunch.

I wouldn’t have that problem. I have such a teeny-tiny arse the tradesman would think he was stealing children’s underwear. <tinkly pweirdo catcher laugh>

Someone has asked for suggestions for a good quality bag. Of course flying to Italy to look is the obvious answer...

Her sister (also fallen on hard times - family trait) takes in ironing.
Sounds like nepotism. First her sis all that washing and that that woman ironing....
Do they have a brother in the business of sullying garments?

I’ve discovered the madness of the Higher Education threads (I’m leaving my job in a few weeks so have duck all else to do.) They take helicopter parenting to a whole new level, asking what modules their kids should be taking in their third year. bleeping madness.
