I’m a very occasional poster but thoroughly enjoy reading all the news and ‘goings-on’ that people write about, particularly regular posters. The fact that they are happy to share their daily ups and downs brings me a lot of comfort, so a huge thank you to you all.

I do hate it when a regular poster disappears and find myself worrying about them, and occasionally we get sad news. It is better to know than carry on fearing the worst.

I admit to being particularly fond of the Scottish contingent so was very sorry to read about the problem with an English poster. We’re not all like that, thankfully.

Now I don’t have time to read the Good Morning thread as I’ve spent so long here!

Jane it's before your time.
I only just caught the tail end of it. I will pm you

JaneJudge Thu 01-Jul-21 08:35:11

who is the clothing accessory? confused

so much is over my head. I don't think anyone has ever upset me either confused

I'm glad I found this thread this morning and to see that I'm not the only member missing EV.

She was very kind to me when I was struggling with a diagnosis earlier in the year. We were communicating via PM and she helped me to see it wasn't necessarily a 'life sentence'.

I am finally getting weekly in-person doctor's appointments and am very much improved. I would have liked her to know how much she helped me. Sad that she can no longer receive my messages.

She relied on GN for friendship and support too. I hope she can at least read how much some members appreciated her.

Good to see you back Charleygirl5

Charleygirl5 Thu 01-Jul-21 08:08:33

No, it is worse than a jail sentence, no time off for good behaviour. I was in the wrong apparently because the clothing accessory stated he/she had MH problems.

FannyCornforth Thu 01-Jul-21 08:02:55

Thank you Jane smile
It was Grandmajet to whom I was referring. Very sad news

Charleygirl it's good to see you here. I had noticed that you were lying low.
If it was a proven troll who caused trouble for you, surely that should 'absolve' you?

Charleygirl5 Thu 01-Jul-21 07:52:05

In my case I think it was the clothes accessory who did a lot of damage and then vanished back to Blackpool.

JaneJudge Thu 01-Jul-21 07:47:12

Fanny, it's fine! smile

I'm sorry to hear about grandmajet sad flowers

I am a bit hmm wtf EV was on a final warning too! Who does all this reporting of posters?

Calpurnia Thu 01-Jul-21 07:37:56

I too was a bit concerned when posters mentioned not reading posts from EV. I really enjoyed her comments and was very impressed with her independent spirit. Cannot imagine why EV would have been on any sort of GN warning. Is there any news of her?

Charleygirl5 Thu 01-Jul-21 07:25:14

MayBee and seacliff, phoenix* I know had shingles which was particularly bad and lasted for ages. She has been unfortunate and had other health issues but has been in touch recently and is enjoying sorting out her garden. Maybe she is having an extra-long break? I do not know- I just know that she is getting on with life as well she can.

I have been with GN since 2011 and I have met quite a few GNs in real life. I am also on a final warning so I do not post very much or at least I think I do not except in soop's kitchen.

FannyCornforth Thu 01-Jul-21 06:57:17

JaneJudge apologies to you; I was being a bit of an idiot thanks

I'm just pleased that the person who spent a lot of time above ground with an accessory has gone. She/he/someone caused a lot of upset.

They were banned.
It may or may not be related to me 'monitoring the site' wink

MissAdventure Thu 01-Jul-21 01:36:50

Ah, thank you Marydoll and Chewy. smile

Nicegranny Thu 01-Jul-21 01:17:16

I remember her name granmaJet I’m sorry to hear that she has passed away.

Marydoll Thu 01-Jul-21 00:47:05

Glad to see you Miss A I have always liked your name! Hope you start to feel better soon.

Chewbacca Thu 01-Jul-21 00:44:02

Good your around MissA but sorry to hear you're not in a good place with your health at the mo. flowers

MissAdventure Thu 01-Jul-21 00:36:07

Hello.
I'm still around but been struggling with health issues.
Shall I fill you all in on every detail? No?
I've been a bit obsessed, checking my tongue, pulling my eyelids down, taking pics of all my swollen bits.
Not much fun.

Chewbacca Thu 01-Jul-21 00:30:59

And, as if by magic......*MissAdventure*! smile waves excitedly

MissAdventure Thu 01-Jul-21 00:08:20

Oh I am sorry to read that.
I always thought she seemed a lovely, warm, down to earth woman.

Sadly, a lovely poster grandmajet passed away earlier this month.She was a regular in The Argy Bargy Bar, was amusing and made light of her situation when ill, her daughter has let us know.
We are having a celebration night for her in The Argy on Friday night this week, all welcome.smile

Thank you for letting us know, lemongrove

Callistemon Thu 01-Jul-21 00:01:30

MissA posted only this week!

Yes, I saw a post by MissAdventure!

Good, if you're reading this, I hope you post more often, MissA, I did like your witty posts.

EV told me that she was on a final warning, I guess you have your answer, if your PM was undeliverable. Such a pity! sad
She was in her eighties, living on her own, with lots of family worries. The caring face of Gransnet!

What on earth can she have done to get banned?
She never seemed particularly combative that I noticed.

Really, GNHQ, time for a rethink?

Spinnaker I think the accessory could be a handbag!

Ha ha ! Gotcha and thank you Curlywhirly grin
