Or is it me being inept? Do they need more wine and flowers ? Or is it the dastardly hackers?

msgrinchtherefugee Tue 25-Aug-15 10:52:04

hello <pokes head round door> can I join?

New neighbour won't do his tool much good if he bangs it too hard against the wall.
(I'll get my coat)

Icyalittle Tue 25-Aug-15 11:06:39

Elegran grin You got there first.

EhUp Tue 25-Aug-15 11:06:56

BlackeyedSusan Tue 25-Aug-15 11:11:48

oo yippee, I can bookmark...

found the customise button yet?

Icyalittle Tue 25-Aug-15 11:11:49

Anyone who brings sake is welcome.

Icyalittle Tue 25-Aug-15 11:12:24

Damned autocorrect. I meant cake.

Actually.....

BlackeyedSusan Tue 25-Aug-15 11:13:48

It is perhaps a little early in the day for sake... [hic]

BlackeyedSusan Tue 25-Aug-15 11:15:27

How about Pom bear s

Gruntfuttock Tue 25-Aug-15 11:16:05

I have also just joined here as Mumsnet is still down. MN came back briefly and is now down again. I can't help wondering if this is the end of MN. sad

EhUp Tue 25-Aug-15 11:17:59

It will be the end of GN, if anyone mentions we were here on a hackergate thread. Let's rename here with a codeword.

msgrinchtherefugee Tue 25-Aug-15 11:18:12

cupcake for gransnet for welcoming us! I'm also concerned, the lack of updates is worrying.

EhUp Tue 25-Aug-15 11:19:35

How about "The wise place"?

soontobe Tue 25-Aug-15 11:22:34

Gruntfuttock shock

I was going to ask if hackers do bring down companies, but I suppose they do, thinking about it.

soontobe Tue 25-Aug-15 11:25:23

EhUp. I dont think gransnet would last long either.
Hackers are bound to join the two up.
But I think that our relationship board is very moderate indeed.

BlackeyedSusan Tue 25-Aug-15 11:30:17

I managed to get some new post to show. (yesterday afternoons) which is an improvement on earlier, but still not able to post over on mn.

No problem, there is plenty to read and post over here.

BlackeyedSusan Tue 25-Aug-15 11:34:35

Well, yesterday's post has finally posted, though it is not working normally.

StillTheLemon Tue 25-Aug-15 11:40:29

Still no updates on FB since last night. Are they tweeting? They should say something really, even if it's just 'we're still here, still working hard. Send more gin'.

LucyGransnet (GNHQ) Tue 25-Aug-15 11:47:24

Icyalittle the sloe gin was exceptional and probably ready for general distribution...in the the GNHQ direction. In the interest of fairness though, I feel it's my duty to try the blackberry vodka as well, so if you fancy sending a glass of that over... Much appreciated <tips hat>

StillTheLemon MN are all ok (no kidnappings to report, happily), just furiously working on getting everything back online. WE SHALL ENDURE.

Seriously Tue 25-Aug-15 11:47:43

Hello!
May I join you? 'Fortunately' as I spent the evening feeding and ferrying teenagers I didn't miss MN too much; but real life without it is, well a bit real shock

catsareus Tue 25-Aug-15 11:49:39

I think they are in a bunker sad

Thanks for the welcome gransnet... one day I hope to be able to join you legitimately. I'm ready when the DC are - but I'm very good, I keep my mouth shut grin.

Icyalittle Tue 25-Aug-15 11:54:30

Glad to hear that MNHQ are all okay and on the case.
<proud now> I shall go and extract more refreshments for new arrivals.
Umm - does fruit alcohol count as one of your 5 a day?

NanTheWiser Tue 25-Aug-15 11:55:13

Yet another MN refugee here! I lurk on GN most days, and the MN catastrophe has pushed me into registering. [Waves to all the other MNers!! brewcupcake]. I reckon there's going to be a lot more housework, washing and ironing being done in some MNers' households while this debacle goes on (and who knows what else??!!)
