What is your favourite colour?

Does this remind anyone of the nadir of Gransnet and a certain person who lived under a rackety bridge?

Ana Sat 18-Jul-15 20:25:32

That's as may be absent, but I don't think soontobe quite falls under that category.

absent Sat 18-Jul-15 20:27:51

I wasn't suggesting that – just déjà vu.

What are we - 5 year olds?

Anya Sat 18-Jul-15 20:45:49

Actually think I'd better leave GN for another time. I'm in a really bad mood over something that happened earlier so not really safe to post angry

I also am in a very bad place and really feel that RL for some of us is so awful that the trivial posts that show up sometimes make some of us despair of common sense and decency. I hope I am not being harsh and unfair if my own feelings mean I don't always understand others.

A bit of triviality can be light relief from real life. If you don't like it, just avoid it.

flowers. flowers. flowers. to anyone who has been having a bad time.

Exactly what FarNorth has posted.

I hadnt realised that gransnet has to be of a certain standard though. Who knew? Oh well.

It doesn't of course but just now and then some of us are so down that we react to what,at the time, we just see as frivolous and we are wrong.

soontobe Sat 18-Jul-15 21:43:11

Thats ok. Not a problem.

Sometimes I find the "trivial" threads just what I want to read, even if I don't post, particularly when the "serious " ones are starting to get political and nasty.

OPh cheer up for Chatham the lot of yer! hmm

petra Sat 18-Jul-15 22:09:37

There's frivolous and there's just plain weird.

There are about 3500 posts of it on mumsnet. They are on thread 4.

jinglbellsfrocks Sat 18-Jul-15 22:12:56

Well,what do I have to do next?

jinglbellsfrocks Sat 18-Jul-15 22:15:39

Oh right!

If you had a goldfish, what would you call it?

Meercat Sat 18-Jul-15 22:21:29

If you could choose any hair colour for yourself what would it be?

No idea,..but I thought I would join in smile

soontobe Sat 18-Jul-15 22:21:41

What was the last thing that you baked?

jinglbellsfrocks Sat 18-Jul-15 22:23:09
