A polite request! Please don't "darken" light threads.

Bikergran How I remember your inflatable friends when we had our virtual parties was it the same one where I got stopped on my broomstick by the Police for speeding through the Mersey Tunnel I seem to remember waking up parked on my garage roof in the early hours with a speeding ticket stuck to my broomstick.

oh what fun glamm I think the Halloween was the first virtual party on top of Pendle Hill.

By the time we went to bed you almost believed you had actualy been to a real! party lol...

pheonix I feel a "Virtual party" coming on behind your sofa.

biker I missed Pendle Hill I think I got lost flying over the M6 and had to call the RAC to get me home again.

I never did find Pendle Hill. My geography is rubbish and my sat nav took me to a forest in Wales.

The sort of sun bed I meant was really just a comfy lounger (can be indoors really). I am the furthest thing from a sun worshiper you can imagine (pasty faced whatever the temperature) but I do like a relaxing lounger. I may just nod off.?? will someone please wake me when the gentlemen arrives ...with or without his relish.?

I think some on Gransnet are darn right nasty, particularly if one has differing opinions.

I read but only occasionally comment and when I do, I seem to shut the thread down, I’m more often than not the last comment.

I do enjoy some lighthearted banter or humour.

I agree LadyGracie- I had my head bitten off recently for asking what to do with a coat somebody left here nearly 6 months ago. Somebody else had their comment deleted, unbelievable.

This post will be classed as stupid by many- fine by me.

Good morning all just back from Aldi, they had Gravadlax on special so I bought the whole box.

I am hiding from lots of people including Mr.GG13 who wants to go car shopping!! I have not got any indoor pets to bring with me, but have tied up my horse to the gate post.

This thread is so uplifting. Thank you all. May I add an ear worm to the frivolity? Saw the wonderful German Ambassador of comedy,Henning Wehn recently. He had a chant of “Get on with it” running through the show. Although it was a reference to the dreaded Brexit,I find myself repeating it whenever I feel inpatient. Nice to be able to say that without fear of snide comment.

googling Gravadlax

Yummy GG is there any space for one more and please may I bring a doggy bag because I may well fancy a (toasted) sandwich later on this evening.

I am not sure if an earworm would be allowed in. Admittedly if it moved my cat would dive on to it so end of.

Fishpieplease I love Henning Wehn ???

Maw, PECS ?

Can I come bearing gherkins, wacky baccy and vodka jellies?
What happened to the cat/dog Donald with his burned nether regions?

None of the threads on here are like mumsnet ones! Very brave if you post on one of those.
I thought I was helping on a phonics thread once ( infant teacher for 40 years) but got shot down in flames by a very fierce young teacher!

I’d bring olives, some crusty bread and no end of bottles of Port!

Isn’t a jolly ‘nonsense’ thread a delight to have. ?.
phoenix you come up with some corkers. We should have one more often to lighten the spirits.
Bags I sit next to galen so I can share her goodies. Nothing like a good gherkin! ?

Will there be music?

Where's Charleygirl????
She was supposed to be looking after my little dog ?!
And she's just turned up full of lipstick ? ?? kiss marks all over her fur.

I am inviting all of you over to The Argy Bargy Bar, where I am setting up pints of frothing poteen ( homemade of course) free to those who lighten the dark threads and those who darken the light threads and the many shades of grey inbetween .After a few, we shall all be good friends.

OK Lemon I am popping in.. tentatively!

where everyone behaves appropriately to the whim of the OP
ffin - it's not always the OP, in fact not usually the OP - someone posts and opinion then along comes someone who is opinionated , trying to control the thread!

Frothing poteen sounds good - although this thread keeps making me mutter an evening prayer about lightening the darkness.

an opinion

(been at the poteen already, sorry!)

I really think it's time you all started to act your ages.............or maybe you are!
