A birthday present from us to you!

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!!

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 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!

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!!!

Oh that's nice DazR!

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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

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

HAPPY BITHDAY! [hic]

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!

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 Gransnet, I love this web site and have recommended it to my friends. I specially loved the e-mail telling me that I would receive the book The House on Paradise Street. The book was fabulous, as I think I have said on a previous link. I have finished it and passed it on.
I do sometimes forget what I have written before, forgive me. My joy is that it is also happening to my friends
Again, Happy Birthday to a super site..

Oops, and meant to say a big thank you to the folks running Gransnet.

I enjoyed receiving that book too. And having to learn how to use Amazon when I won a gift voucher which paid for some books no longer in print mentioned on the 'Books you read as a child' thread. I was amazed when I actually managed to join Gransnet a year ago as I'd never joined anything like this before - & I continue to enjoy the sharing of ideas, troubles and joys. It was great to meet real gransnetters & Geraldine at the Google event last June - & to invent something with real IT techies & other G'netters. Going to Pearsons to do the workbook trials has given me days out in London, M & S vouchers & improved IT skills - I even learnt how to join facebook. And I'll be logging in even more now my mobility is compromised after breaking a bone in my foot last week on the David Hockney Trail in Yorkshire.
Gransnet reminds me that the spirit of women supporting each other I felt in the 70s still lives.

Have only been posting fora very short while but am going to make myself a badge to wear tomorrow stating 'Happy 1st Birthday Gransnet' if you see me please say Hi

Good for you, netgran. You're not by any chance in the Greater Manchester/North Cheshire area?
I've been thinking - how about a car sticker to identify GNetters? Like the square National Trust stickers that go on the front windscreen.

Have enjoyed so many aspects of Gransnet - Christmas with the panto and carol singing stand out! I wonder if I'm the only one who'd like to see again all the posts made on that first day?

Oooh yes em that would be interesting!

Is anyone else starting to feel quite giddy about tomorrow?

I'm looking forward to seeing what comes up, if you know what I mean!

I too have slowly and surely become hooked on Gransnet! I check my emails, clean up my Inbox then treat myself to a good old read of the Forums. Gransnet is just like a great big and very friendly coffee morning into which you can pop at any time. Keep it up Gransnetters and GNHQ! Happy Birthday.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANSNET. ONE YEAR ALREADY. AND HERE'S
TO MANY MORE.

WELL DONE TO ONE OF THE BEST SITES AROUND.
