Busy mums

[Beazo]

Hi all,

I'm doing a project at the moment and it is focussed on juggling mums (i.e. full time/part time work plus look after kids). As I am not a mum, I wondered if anyone out there would be willing to share some info on their 'lifestyle'?

I need to find out in what kind of social situations you would crack open a bottle of wine, for example is it with a group of friends? What makes you sometimes buy something special? When you go shopping do you 'stick a bottle in the trolley' or is it a conscious choice? If someone offered to let you try something new, would you take them up on the offer? What would it take to make you buy it?

Finally, as a busy mum, when do you get time to yourself and what do you do when you get it?

Thanks everyone. I know that I am being nosey, however I can't afford to sling a few grand to a research company so all thoughts welcome.

What is the research in aid of? Is it for academic purposes? Sounds interesting, I studied Psych at uni (did some focus groups about alcohol comsumption) and am now expecting my first child so you've got my attention! There is a great place here to find busy mums xxxxxxxx if you like but please let me know how the study is going! x

You're certainly a busy mum, Bounty.

Beazo, why are all your questions about what mothers buy?

Anyway, if you can provide more information about what our answers will be going towards, I would be willing to help. I work full time and am a mother. Am I busy? Well, I'm posting on the EDF...

The results of a forum question would not be academically excating nor commercially rigorous

what is this info for?

who are you ?

well spotted Ted Max, Bounty2009 has certainly been busy http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=bounty2009&sourceid=navclient-ff&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1B3GGGL_enGB261GB261

It seems she works for an agency in London called Pass it on Media that "specialise in social media: from word-of-mouth / buzz / guerilla marketing to viral content creation and seeding."

Some call it creating a buzz, I call it spamming the forum and so she has been banned.
