As time is galloping on could you please add your name to the thread if you are coming to gally's on the 3rd of October. Then we can talk about the catering once we have established who is coming. smile

Oh soop I can imagine how irritated and frustrated you must have been. Thanks again for sending them to me. Goodnight to you moon

Butternut Sat 06-Oct-12 17:52:23

Soop moon - and enjoy your G&T.

By the way - lemon or lime?

soop Sat 06-Oct-12 17:29:06

Have attempted to upload GN group photo several times throughout the day. Sorry - but unsuccessful. Almost time to read paper, feed Rory and kitten and mother cat, after which, it will be the Saturday evening gin and tonic treat.
Until tomorrow, a peaceful evening to you all. smile moon

Noted, Gally!
Great to hear everyone had such a good time, despite frustrations with pics.

Gally Sat 06-Oct-12 15:43:36

I've been trying again - still no luck - angry
I think Geraldine should put up a special page of photos of our various meetings, to make up for it grin

soop Sat 06-Oct-12 13:52:37

Still no joy with ongoing attempts to upload pics. Really must drag myself away from you lot and knuckle down to proper jobs. hmm

soop Sat 06-Oct-12 12:21:49

Grannylin I've a very good photo of you. PM your email address, please. It was very good to meet you at long last. smile

soop Sat 06-Oct-12 11:27:37

Logged on. First message was from dear Geraldine HQ...she likes the photo...she cannot yet tell us why we cannot upload...but she's doing her best to sort the problem on our behalf flowers

In the meantime, anyone wanting me to forward a copy to them, please PM me with your email address. I'm at your service smile

Marsco A warm welcome from me. You'll not regret joining this mad marvellous forum. wink Send me your email address and I can forward pics to you.

I need a word with grannyact please. She mentioned a procedure relating to a will and I've already forgotten the details. blush

Granny23 Sat 06-Oct-12 00:36:41

Many thanks soop got my copy of the picture. Having saved it into 'my pictures', I then tried to load it back onto my profile and also got the OOPS! message. I think we have been CENSORED

Lovely to have you on board Marsco. smile

Absent - In order to ensure you are marked present at the next Gran Gathering, I think you should set the ball rolling by coming up with some dates when you are certain to be free!

harrigran Fri 05-Oct-12 23:38:18

Hi marsco nice to see you on tonight.
I have pictures absent but can't get them to upload either, there is a real tech problem. I wanted to put the picture of the enormous carrot cake on too but no joy.

absentgrana Fri 05-Oct-12 19:01:47

Where are the real pictures? Not the one of you all standing about looking well behaved, although Mr Soop did do a lovely job. envy envy I want to see the ones where you let your back hair down. Don't give me excuses about tech problems – I am not convinced. What are you keeping secret, you bad, bad ladies? grin

baubles Fri 05-Oct-12 19:00:28

absent it's a pity you couldn't make it, I'm sure there will be a 'next time' smile

Bags Fri 05-Oct-12 18:58:07

Hi, marsco. It was lovely to meet you too smile, and it's nice to 'hear' you on the forums as well.

absentgrana Fri 05-Oct-12 18:57:06

Hi marsco. Sorry that I didn't get up to Gally's – in fact, really fed up that I didn't – to meet the Scottish grannies that I met in Glasgow and other grannies I haven't yet met. Hope to hear more from you. smile

marsco Fri 05-Oct-12 18:53:17

Hi Butternut , Hi baubles, hopefully we will all get together again soon, hi to everyone else i met on wednesday and all the other gransnetters

baubles Fri 05-Oct-12 18:24:15

moon soop

soop Fri 05-Oct-12 18:17:22

Have attempted yet again to add Edinburgh images to my album. The Oops message refuses to budge. Until tomorrow, when I shall try again, I wish all a very pleasant evening. moon

soop Fri 05-Oct-12 18:08:46

baubles Mr soop has read the pleasing comments from you lot. smile

baubles Fri 05-Oct-12 17:51:00

Granny23 what HAVE you been saying to make Mr Soop blush?

soop Fri 05-Oct-12 17:02:21

In the time that I've been trying to upload the Edinburgh group photo, I could have dead-headed the flowers, ironed a weeks laundry and dusted away a gathering of cobwebs. SOS what's going on? I've successfully sent attachments to several GN's and uploaded the image on my Facebook page.
Granny23 If you pm me your email address I can forward the images to you.
Have passed your comments on to Mr soop. He blush and an impish smile crept across his hairy face. wink

soop Fri 05-Oct-12 13:47:21

Daft thing is, I was able to post the image on Facebook in the blink of an eye.

soop Fri 05-Oct-12 13:19:43

Have attempted to add a couple of Wee Man images to my gallery. No joy! Anyone wanting a copy of the group photo, please pm me and give me your email address. So far, three GN's have received the image as an attachment. smile

soop Fri 05-Oct-12 11:05:13

harrigran gave me her email address and I was able to send the group photo as an attachment. Any other GN's who do likewise will receive the image ASAP. grin

Mr soop enjoyed seeing [and hearing] us all together. There was such a strong sense of camaraderie between us. smile flowers

soop Fri 05-Oct-12 10:26:46

I asked Josie GN for assistance with the Oopy group photo. Have forwarded a copy to her and she'll investigate. Hope to add it to my album before too long. I'm just a tad miffed. Back soon.

grannyactivist Fri 05-Oct-12 08:44:02

Oh dear Grannylin - wish we'd hung around long enough to see you were in trouble. Glad there was a bit of a silver lining though. (My son has picked lots of blackberries too and I was down on the allotment yesterday picking autumn raspberries - lovely, but now I have to squeeze in some time to make jam!!)
