To think William Morris and Gransnet are poles apart

I blame Jane Morris. She’s got wind of you posting FannyC and trying to sabotage wink

At least it adds a bit of variety.
Make a change from the old ‘spirit of Gransnet’ ?

I take it this was your recent thread about Prince William and family? I guess it’s been deleted. I didn’t post on it as the subject doesn’t interest me, but it appeared the majority of posters didn’t like it. it’s tough, but that’s life.

Re deletions.
They delete what they see fit.
We just have to suck it up!

As GN’s unofficial Morris Correspondent I was intrigued by this too!

A recent thread was deleted because "it brought nothing useful of beautiful to the site". A reference of course to Morris's advice Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.
I can't see what on earth this has to do with threads on GN. Many of which are just ways to pass the time, gossip or games. So can anyone find a connection between the two or am I right in thinking William Morris is now turning in his grave? Or is this perhaps a new turning for GNHQ and will all posts now be looked at for beauty and usefulness? (Possibly though the new moderator is an intern who has just finished an art degree grin)
