Congratulations to Justine Roberts, founder of Gransnet

Maybe it is just shorthand for "doesn't fit any of the other categories (sport, the arts etc) but hasn't the girl done well" ?

Elegran! I thought you'd know!

Congratulations from me too. I have met physically and via GN some lovely ladies/women/gals/ guys.

I wonder if Justine would see her way clear now to re-establishing Jinglebells for 2017. Offering an olive branch to our naughty girl of the fifth form, in Enid Blyton style. I do hope so.

er, NanKate - I think you missed something

Is she back Riverwalk ?

Maybe this article can enlighten on the economy bit?

Yes. I have read that article before. But, no. It doesn't enlighten. (I'm sorry. I know I'm thick)

From the article "McLaggan Smith 'Mummy Bear' Mug"

No!!! That's something I googled earlier. Wait...

Doesn't creating jobs help the economy? Mumsnet and Gransnet employ people.

This. "All this shows that Mumsnet, which this year expects to have sales of more than £5m,"

What sales. Advertising space? How does that...

I still don't get it.

It says MN employed eighty people, in 2013. Probably more now, and plus GN crew. Still doesn't sound a lot really.

I second the motion that Justine should be approached re jinglbellsfrocks. And if that fails, perhaps Camilla.

Camilla? I'm sure she's busy in Sandringham.

I don't think Justine has anything to do with Gransnet at the moment. I could be wrong.

Bellsisabelle and of course
For your audience with Camilla.
