Just arrived

Ha Grandmabatty not far away at all but nothing to do with my username nor is it chess Madeleine45 Definitely not my game. More of a draughts player.

Hello 👋 and welcome, Castle25, you'll find much to interest you on GN.

I'm a bit to the west of you and Grandmabatty in Lanarkshire.

Cockabendy castle comes to mind! I'm a stenhousemuir/larbert girl by birth!

Hiya Castle25 and welcome 😃 walk about the grounds until you feel at home.

Welcome to Gransnet, Castle. Jump right in!

Thank you for so many welcoming messages. So many names I recognise and feel I know without ever having spoken to you. A bit creepy as if I’ve been stalking. I promise I’ve not, but mostly admiring your bravery at posting grandmabatty I’m very near you in Larbert. I promise to post more about me as I get braver

Morning and Welcome Castle.

Welcome Castle25 👋. Look forward to hearing more from you.

Hello and welcome to Gransnet Castle25.

Welcome!

The news and Politics threads tend to be the ones where emotions do flare over matters close to people's deep concerns, but unless you like taking politics, the rest of GN is full of variety - try working your way through the different forums and seeing what is in there.

the only one to be aware of before posting iirc (that means, if I recall correctly)
An AIBU thread means is "am I being unreasonable" and sometimes there is some controversy when posters feel of the O/P (opening post) they are being unreasonable.

👋👋 Hello Castle25 we are a friendly lot.

Have a look at the Good Morning thread and soops kirchen
Which are nice gentle threads, for chatting 🙋‍♀️
