A birthday present from us to you!

This has been a most interesting and informative thread – with so many names I have never seen before. As a miserable old cynic, I might even suggest that it is my favourite.

Happy Birthday To You Gransnet.
I'm a quite new member and my favourite moment has been your email to tell me that I had won a copy of of 'The House on Paradise Street'. I'm so looking forward to reading it and to the next year enjoying Gransnet!

Gransnet is the best invention since VODKA, and that says it all!

HAPPY BITHDAY! [hic]

My thoughts entirely, glass! The more the merrier! Or at least, the more the merrier....

There have been some lovely messages from Gransnetters posting for the first time. Now that you have taken the plunge we would love it if you joined us regularly on the threads. Come and join us for and a chat.

I don't know that I can call it a favourite moment - I'm quite new to Gransnet and often just read the other members' comments sometimes for encouragement and sense with family matters, sometimes just to make me smile. It's like having a good friend or a listening ear nationwide all encapsulated in the community of Gransnet. Many thanks.

I can't believe you're one year old. My favourite moment was writing a guest blogpost. It was so lovely and so flattering to be one of your guest bloggers,it's something I won't forget so thank you.

Its become a highlight of my inbox - always left to read after "de-junking" the rest.
Here's to the next year and summer sunshine!

I don't have a favourite moment, I love to read the newsletter and being fairly new to Grandmotherhood really love reading all the articles and letters from other Gransnetters. Its great to have a site where everything is relevant to me, where everyone understands that for some it's impossible to laugh or cough without being in view of a loo, where forgetting what you did this morning is not crazy, but quite normal! Please keep up the good work, and congratulations for reaching this milestone.

Oh that's nice DazR!

Oh - the wonderful afternoon I spent perusing the interesting thread on hymns. Brought back so many memories and re-engaged me with old favourites. Spent the rest of the week singing!!!

My memory is of actually getting the hang of 'posting' on a forum. Trouble is I've never found my way back to said forum to see if anyone responded! No doubt I won't find this one again either! Happy Birthday anyway!

One of he best birthday presents I had last year was finding Gransnet - my birthday is 6th May so I must have been one of the first to find you! So Happy Birthday to us both. x

My Favorite moment was FINDING Gransnet a short while ago. I am addicted!
I am telling all my friends about it- a grown up site with things I want to read about & the message board members have already helped me through a very emotional family situation.
I am so glad I am a member of Gransnet now!!

Oh! I remember!

(took me a while )

jack Sorry I have only just seen your post and your question,yes at the end of last year when you know how it is when xmas is looming and you are looking for that something special for over the holidays,well DD in her wisdom let it slip that she thought I was to old to keep my long hair (shock-horror) but I took it the wrong way and was pretty upset about it as I have always kept my hair in tip-top condition,so we had a discussion and I decided not to have it cut,so I kept it long (not cut off and kept)as I may have implied.So it is now much longer than it was and is middle of back,kept tidy by updo's/ ponytails /and plait.

Good Luck for the future!

I couldn't pick a best bit. I just worry that I might miss something! The best part is the support that people rush to give anyone who needs it, oh and the silliness, oh and the spats, oh and the new babies, oh and everything really.

I think mine is yet to come. I only joined a few days ago and was delighted to find posts on so many subjects of interest to me. Glass seems to keep poping up in support of everyone else so I hope she is getting any support she needs.

I look forward to getting to know you.

glammanana, please explain. Are you saying you still have long hair? Or that you have kept the clippings? Sometimes Gransnet is totally beyond me. But I love it, and am so glad I joined.

I've only just joined and am already enjoying the forums ... it's great to find other grandma's with the same questions I have!

My most entertaining moments last year were the contributions from so many fellow GNs on the organisation of a party,such thought and fun comments made it all seem alive, let's have many more please.

My favourite moment was just finding all the other gransnetters threads and realising that I was just as nutty/normal/mad as the rest of them )

annobel you cant rush things.
