Gransnet. Should I Be On It?

there are a leave voters and Royalists on here, they just keep their heads down.

Keep their heads down? Your 'avin a larf! Plenty of your sort on here Chaffinch

Anyone who shops at Waitrose is particularly welcome.

Much like you Chaffinch
Don't shop at Waitrose as there isn't one for miles
Not terribly keen on dogs, but can tolerate well trained ones.
Voted leave but now not sure.
Like most of the Royal family. Except the pretentious non workers

I don't like dogs
I don't admire the royal family
I shop in Waitrose
I don't like expensive scarves
I don't really feel like I fit here
A lot of my posts seem to be ignored
but I am a gran so I think I can be here.
chaffinch it is up to you
I like garden birds

I rarely shop in Waitrose as Sainsburys and Aldi are much nearer (and cheaper)
I'm not crazy about scarves and only wear one when it's freezing cold in winter. Can't understand why anyone would want to wear a scarf in summer.
I used to like most of the royal family but only a few of them now.
I like well behaved dogs - mine, of course, are perfect.
I voted Leave and don't regret it.
And......shock horror, I peek at the Daily Mail first thing in the morning just to see what's occurring.

That alone ought to get me ex communicated.

Do please stay Chaffinch...it would be very boring if we all thought alike. I voted remain but can't get excited either way now. The powers that be have made such a hash of it all. I love my dog ...but she is a dog ...certainly not a 'fur baby'. Just cannot get away with scarfs be they cheap,expensive, silk, wool or anything else. They all look awful on me ...just don't have the knack of elegant knots ext.

Merlot it's ok your secret is safe ???

Chaffinch - I agreed with everything your list but (b) definite no no for me.

Funny isn’t it? The best we can get seems to get two out of three

Sorry, I’ll say that again!
The best we can get, is two out of three!

I shop at Lidl’s, Tesco’s and on Sundays go to Waitrose for freebies ... newspaper & coffee. I wear DM’s /trainers , jeans and t-shirts on the whole
Not a great fan of dogs or cats.
Voted Remain.
I have white naturally curly hair, so looks as if I’ve had a perm when it’s layered. I’ve just stopped straightening it, so fit the granny look perfectly ?

Crack on with your individuality, chaffinch

Hi Chaffinch
I voted Leave and don’t regret it
Am not a fan of the RF ( although HM does a good job.)
Only shop at Waitrose these days infrequently ( a bit of a drive to get there.)
I like dogs
I love scarves
I like chaffinches.

This thread reminds me of the game ‘I went to market and I bought....’ ( a staple of long car journeys with our children.)

I voted leave, and still want to leave.
I like the Royal family,
I do like dogs if they're someone else's. I'm a cat lover.
2 and a half deadly sins for me?
I'm a Gransnet addict. I love it.
I've not been chucked off.....yet.

I voted remain and sometimes shop at Waitrose. I love dogs. I don't like scarves as my neck is too short. I am also guilty of wearing some of the things on the old lady thread. I love my grandchildren, but at a distance, they are certainly not the centre of my life.

Who wants everyone to act or think the same, the differences are far more interesting.

Chaffinch agree with your three points so please stay. It would be a dull world if we were all the same. Keep off the News & Politics boards if you are of a sensitive nature, as there is some pretty robust debate there. Good if you want to wade into the fray though!

Re scarves: I wear them for warmth in the winter and all you need to do is loop the scarf loosely round your neck once and then use a large safety pin on the inside. This should go through your clothing and then the three parts of the scarf (the two hanging bits and the loop). The pin will secure the scarf in place and you will not have any problems with it moving. Don't do this to a nice top or you may get holes in it!

Aww bless, I'll look out for your posts pinkquartz

?hmmm does wanting to leave the EU & not liking dogs off set liking the RF?
It’s a close call? but I think you can be granted a Pardon.

ffinochio, I like your style, taking the freebies from Waitrose.

Excuse me, pedant that I am, but where is there any mention of scarves or Waitrose? Have I missed something? Chaffinch?
I don't like scarves except for warmth. Always think of poor Isadora Duncan. (she who died when her long scarf got trapped in the car door)
Waitrose is too far away but I shopped there before it was considered posh!

Grammeratto, no mention, my daftness.

Yes, I was just about to ask the same question about scarves and Waitrose. Oh I know lessismore mentioned it , why I don’t know unless she was having a dig at someone.

So I voted leave, I like dogs, respect the Queen but not much time for any of the other members.

It would be a very dull place if we all thought the same. I'm remain, republican ( except for the present queen) and I love dogs and all animals. I do have quite a few scarves and shop at Waitrose.......

I shouldn’t be here either. Dislike dogs, voted remain but couldn’t care less now, not remotely interested in food or fashion, don’t shop in Waitrose, don’t own a silk scarf, don’t watch, listen or read the news or know anything about apostrophes. I need shooting!

I wouldn’t say Waitrose is posh, I like it because it sells food and little else, it could take me a week to navigate the nearest Tesco, and Sainsbury’s I don’t mind, but it’s huge. Waitrose is a far pleasanter shopping experience, and much quicker!
