I feel so angry with Meghan & Harry

Secret Alternative Group of Grans - Independent, Equal and Separate

The SAGGIES will make a bid for mob rule

?????

I propose a splinter group for those of us who don't meet the criteria - the Secret Alternative Group of Grans - Independent, Equal and Separate!

The SAGGIES will make a bid for mob rule.

I think there are more important issues to be angry about at the moment.

Couldn’t an apprenticeship scheme be introduced so we could learn ‘on the job’?

Oh dear I am now giggling at pictures in my head of naked senior grannies tying bits of themselves in knots! ?????

Naked Twister game at the Darby and Joan club.....?

Good idea for a new game when my active retirement group gets to meet again!!!

Am I dreaming it ir havent we already done socks to death elsewhere? Fanny?

Gransnet royalty?
Now that is a completely different matter! Nothing to do with our longevity on GN suits me. The only problem being some GNs have a bit of a problem with relative newcomers to the family throwing their weight around and wanting their voice to be heard (Meghan)!

I ve been avoiding this thread like the plague sitting on my hands so I don’t get involved in the witch-hunt but I m loving it now....
I do wear Jim jammies and one leg is definitely sometimes up , now socks ummm what is it ? one on and one off not quite clear ? I can wiggle one little toe independent of the other toes ...can that count Answers on a post card please
Am I in or out put me out my misery ?

When I first joined Gransnet, there was a kerfuffle between some of the grans and someone said that ‘certain members felt they were Gransnet Royalty.’

Bearing in mind how many threads we get referring to the RF, I think this is a fitting description for senior/long established members.

Thank you for cheering me up - I haven’t laughed so much in ages. Don’t know how I even got here - I never read RF threads ?

I’m losing the plot.
Are we trying to flush out the very naughty senior Grans for being bossy to Blossoming?
Or are we auditioning to become part of the senior Gran pack so that we can infiltrate and stop them being bossy to Blossoming.
Either way I’m now rolling down my jama pant leg before it stops my circulation.
Night night Grans, senior or otherwise.

Are Aussies allowed in ? I can knit socks and I’m a gt. grandma! I can be rude and cheeky,too

I once knitted a scarf for my nephew’s teddy. It started off as a blanket for his pushchair. At least the teddy didn’t complain about the dropped stitches. I also nearly darned a sock once so hopefully that counts towards membership points.

Luckygirl either you are a senior Gran spy or you have just landed in a parallel universe

I am now lying in bed with my pyjama leg rolled up, waiting to be inducted.
Ooh Orlin, you are norty. Orlin........Orlin.....are you awake...

I've been on GN for about seven years, does that qualify me? I can only knit in straight lines, so would a scarf count?

Oops, nodded off on the sofa, does this mean I qualify as a senior Gran? No inductions please, I much prefer a ceramic hob.
Dirndl skirts Marydoll you minx.
Blossoming, I suspect you are the senior senior Gran pretending not to be and banning yourself from posting on certain subjects. If this is not the case, you must be brave and post to your hearts content to draw out the senior Grans, then we can zap them.

Smileless, I'm taken aback at the thought of being accepted into the inner sanctum. Is there an induction ceremony, where I must incur the wrath of HQ to pass the test? Are there code words, so that we can recognise each other? e.g plimsolls, Shoezone, school holidays, Are you new to GN? , I've not seen you posting before. So many questions, but very few answers!

I could wear my best dirndl skirt, with the elastic waist and get a blue rinse to make me look older.

H falls "in love with an American who inevitably reinforced his concerns. And he decided to quite". Sounded reasonable to me too Luckygirl so why didn't they just quit?

Well we may have to have a secret meeting to decide how long the probation period needs to last Marydoll but I'm sure it will be OK.

Meghan comes from a very different culture; and the royal family in its turn is a very different culture from ordinary British folk.

Americans sometimes find it hard enough to deal with the stiff upper lip, buttoned-up attitude (as they see it) of the British, but to deal with the extreme of the royal family is a big ask, and too big a hill to climb.

Harry himself was teetering on the periphery in any case, having felt uncomfortable with all that being part of that family had caused him in the form of the death of his mother.

So - he finds himself in love with an American who inevitably reinforced his concerns. And he decided to quit. Sounds reasonable to me.

I'm a mere babe in arms, 2015 for me, but I'm a fast learner! Could I please classed as a senior gran on probation? I promise to try hard, while wearing my onsie.
I don't do naked, too traumatic for my toyboy!

I have forgotten how to turn a sock, but that could be classed as a senior moment, methinks.

I always had you marked down for a lady Callistemon

That was very naughty LauraNorder; you made me choke on my Ovaltine coffee.

2013 for me annodomini. I bow to your
octogenarianism seniority.
