Welcome doc - not related to jack by any chance are you? If you are you'll see she has been singing your praises! sunshine

Welcome doc hoping you enjoy the posts and get involved with the conversations.

Carol Tue 17-Apr-12 13:50:29

Welcome DOC. I am the person who tipped George Clooney back over your broken fence when I had finished with him a couple of weeks ago. I can only apologise! grin

(Jack will explain)

Missed you pompa. You were so kind when I posted about my daughters depression. I was worried that you were going through one of your dark times, I hope not. sunshine

Gally Wed 18-Apr-12 08:42:25

Welcome back Pompa, you have been missed. Hello Doc.sunshine

@Shysal, no my mood is good lately smile. Just been busy with the grandparent thing, our grandson has had a string of minor infections that have excluded him from nursery, grans to the rescue. My car knows it's own way to them now.

bagitha Wed 18-Apr-12 16:52:38

Hi there, pomps! Good to have you back among us smile.

Ariadne Wed 18-Apr-12 17:00:33

Hi Pompa! x

jeni Wed 18-Apr-12 17:37:52

Gee pompa, it's sure good to see you!

jack Thu 19-Apr-12 10:31:59

DOC47. You sound lovely. You're not George Clooney's double by any chance are you? (This is the way to operate, Carol)

I'm sorry we're not related. On the other hand that's probably a good thing. Just in case we want to indulge in a mild flirtation.

My dear old chap is also a gransnetter. But I've forgotten what he calls himself!

Oh I do love men ...

Carol Thu 19-Apr-12 10:43:24

I'm getting so mixed up now - this isn't your DOC then? In that case, if there's a spare George Clooney lookalike going, I think I have priority! grin
