Addicted again!

glamma, my friend's son found jobs abroad by way of The Lady adverts. He never really came back properly.......think he's in Nepal again, now!

You realise, green, that now everyone knows how mean we are!

We slipped up there, didn't we, Anagram! I was really just trying to save paper, though !

I subscribe on line, the same as I do for good food, olive, nationa geographic, telegraph and the bmj.
Otherwise I'd have to have an extra green bin!

You lot have seen the article in print! I'm having to wait until copy comes thro' post [maybe tomorrow]. So pleased you approve. It's difficult to get so much that matters into 900 words. Bags was kind enough to proof read it for me. Thanks, Bags

I know that feeling. I pressed the button on the table in court in front of me, and in rushed the security men,rather than me being transported home.

absent thanks for enlightening me
nellie...you are a LOVELY lady [and funny with it!]

I can't get your article on line, soop . Do I have to pay to see it??

Yes!

But think! It's paying one of soops children's wages!

Goodness! How much does one copy of The Lady cost then?

I think I might have the £4 worth, for 4 issues. It looks like there is quite a lot in it. It would be delivered weekly by post.

I think you can probably see just gone past issues online but not the current one, which would have soop's article in it. It's not like a firewall - like the Times.

Or am I wrong there?

Oh, that's not bad then. Soop's children must have modest requirements.

That must be on the i-pad that jeni gets it.

Yep!

jeni laughed about you pressing wrong button.Happened to me when working in prison ! Switched off light to go for my coffee break. Security men rushed in-light switch was security alarm.
Back to addiction.I'm addicted to playing bridge online but GN runs it very close.
Watching Simon Schama's Shakespeare at the same time as catching up on this site.

Look forward to seeing you again! Have a possible nibble for 4places on the galilee trip!

jeni got the app - thanks for the hint.

soop lovely article; you do us justice. And I love the idea of being a "Webgran"!

You lot tickle me pink! My copy has been delivered. If only I'd sent a pic taken with Bags...we were slurping wine in celebration of Gransnet...so appropriate, methinks.

I'm having a wee weep. Was busy reading the GN article and had skipped the editor's letter. Went to it, saw my Nana's photo and read a very sweet and fitting tribute to her sense of style. Made my day.

I now have to wait until Monday before I can pick up my copy - our wee village newsagent only tends to stock the 'tabloid-type' magazines, so I'll need to nip down to the town centre to get my Lady (Mi'lady!)

green Bless you. If I could, I'd be happy to lend my copy to you.
I've discovered that the article has been cropped. Editor makes final decision. Sorry therefore, that not all matters relating to Grans saddened by lack of interaction with their own offspring or grandchildren, lost some impact. I did try my best...

soop - it will be wonderful, just the same. We'll be able to read between those lines that were cut, so don't be bothered about it. We know how you write, and what you'll have written, even without seeing it all!
