…before we had Gransnet?

Notsogrand Sun 15-Jul-12 18:33:18

Good question!

Ella46 Sun 15-Jul-12 18:47:40

More housework?? grin

I think I chatted on the phone a lot more....! I'd certainly miss Gransnet if it ceased to be! Must go and get the washing in....you see, it's things like that, that are being neglected! grin

Ah, I've just realised that I don't do sudokus on line any more. Is Gransnet rotting my brain or keeping it going?

green well I just beat you to it I brought my washing in and ironed it all before 4pm,I don't know what I did with my day pre GN I must have been a lazy so and so,mind there are a few jobs that I must get done to-night or maybe stay on here and do them to-morrow ...... or Tuesday hmm

Keeping the little grey matter going !!!!!!grin

I think I played a lot of Solitaire....hypnotising....

I posted a lot on an ex-pat forum but it was taken over by a different publishing company and I did not like the new format.

Spider Solitaire and Hearts....still do, but not as often!

greenmossgiel Sun 15-Jul-12 19:54:24

I like Spider Solitaire, too - can't seem to get above 60%, though confused

Anagram Sun 15-Jul-12 20:04:07

No, I don't bother checking any more! I think they've made it harder - I used to win more often than I do now.

AlieOxon Sun 15-Jul-12 20:20:49

I had to delete the Spider game, that was really hypnotising.

Anagram Sun 15-Jul-12 20:29:29

Don't try Hearts, then....wink
Very addictive!

I used to be horribly addicted to Freecell. I started at number 1 game and worked my way up to the 700s. It took several years.

Annobel Sun 15-Jul-12 21:22:00

I just did it randomly, petallus, but was no less addicted. I give Gransnet the credit for weaning me off computer games.

GoldenGran Sun 15-Jul-12 21:25:17

I am addictetsetse sudoku and spider on my iPad ,but not half as much as I am to Gransnet.
I will have to do without it when I go away on Friday for a week, don't think it will cure th addiction though.

GoldenGran Sun 15-Jul-12 21:26:04

Try addicted to, not sure what that word was!

I played electronic Countdown a lot, haven`t touched it in ages though!

effblinder Mon 16-Jul-12 17:20:29

There were more hours in the day before I joined Gransnet, I'm sure...

harrigran Mon 16-Jul-12 23:14:32

Can't remember but I suspect I used to do housework.

Notsogrand Mon 16-Jul-12 23:17:12

Doing housework is a bad habit harrigran. Glad you're no longer hooked on it grin
