If you read the threads there is quite a bit of banter between members, I am sooo dissapointed at this because at our age we really should know better. It makes me feel un comfortable and I have actually been at the other end of such goings on. Really not sure what response I am going to get with this thread but can not help but be honest.

I'm the same Bags

Well I've finished packing, apart from the charger for my scooter.

What do I do now?

I know!

I'll stir up the old dears on GRANSNET! Evil grin

gracesmum Tue 18-Dec-12 12:22:12

Now that is just showing off! smile or else your pooter is having a nervous breakdown?

jeni Tue 18-Dec-12 12:48:51

Where do you find symbols on an iPad?

annodomini Tue 18-Dec-12 13:12:57

I found symbols among the Microsoft fonts on my laptop but they wouldn't copy onto G'net. I did try ... honest, please miss...wink

Did it. Thanks, jingl

shysal where I'd you find them, please, please?

kittylester Tue 18-Dec-12 14:16:12

shysal that looks like one of those trendy Scandinavian jumpers. smile

gracesmum Tue 18-Dec-12 15:36:40

Which bring us back to The Killing!!! (Look away now, crimson)
I have just knitted 2 Sarah Lund dolls for DDs 2 and 3 (aged 35 and 31) who are fans like me. She is a very determined-looking little doll and shares Sophie Grabol's abiity to wear the same jumper for weeks at a time. Mine are still bald, alas, as I haven't done the hair yet, but they are hilarious!

Bags I have lots of the blue ones, but only one brown one here (other one is at daughter's house) until I get my next prescription. I knew exactly where it should have been and did that man thing of continuously going back to the place it should have been and looking at the empty space in puzzlement. confused

petallus Tue 18-Dec-12 17:08:57

I hardly ever use blue ones. Doc said brown better unless I need a quick fix, in which case use the blue.

gracesmum did you knit the dolls from a pattern?

annodomini Tue 18-Dec-12 17:16:41

I take a blue one with me everywhere after an unfortunate episode in France last spring when I had to borrow my sister's. I'd left my purple 'preventer' at home. Luckily she had one of those as well. blush

jeni Tue 18-Dec-12 17:34:59

Brown is a steroid probably which is a 'preventer' ,the blue (ventolin) is a bronchodilator.

GRANNY put one under your pillow .like bags i have a few around the house x

gracesmum Tue 18-Dec-12 19:25:07

Oh - it has taken a long time but I realise you are talking about inhalers!!

Yes, petallus I downloaded it from Ravelry (£4.75 a lot, but seemed like a good idea at the time!) It's by whodunnknit.

Do you realise no one has written anything daft on this thread since 20.20 last night and it is only 13 pages long wink Are you all asleep?

Ana Wed 19-Dec-12 11:53:05

Well, we could have a quick petty bicker if you're up for it, Movedalot! grin

jO5 Wed 19-Dec-12 11:55:00

I still haven't worked out how to actually create a star. Without copy and pasting from the Yahoo person.

jO5 Wed 19-Dec-12 11:55:34

Alie did you copy and paste those. If not - you tell me what you did! Now!

Ana Wed 19-Dec-12 11:58:28
