'Hello kissygrandma - I'm fairly new here too but everyone has to make the scary move of coming through the door for the first time sometime...so - get chatting
Hello kissygrandma, say what you like, we are not a mean lot, I promise you 
Welcome kissygrandma. Why don't you have a look around and visit a few different threads, old and new, to get a feel of what Gransnet is like? It's a supportive, friendly place with some feisty people who are there to provide support, entertainment and lots of good advce and ideas
Oh dear I've been misread again I did not mean Grasnet Pet Forum was cliquey it was some other forums for Dogs I tried. Off course people who have been on forums for a long time know each other so it more easy to for them to chat together. I think I will lurk a bit so I don't cause any more misunderstandings 
Hello kissygrandma 
bruha no dont lurk join in. You have taken the step now you cant go back to lurking.
Bruha, I don't know why that happened - perhaps sometimes people don't read the posts properly. You made it quite clear that you were talking about another forum which seemed a bit cliquey - please don't go back to lurking!
Hello and welcome kissy ( I actually enjoyed typing that and am a bit envious of the name 
).
Elegran has made some very perceptive observations with which I agree. I joined GN right at the beginning and have enjoyed 'meeting' posters both old and new and I expect I will continue to do so. In my own day to day life I often feel as if I'm living in a soap opera, so I don't need any additional stress/angst/drama. I therefore usually choose to participate in threads that steer clear of those posts/topics that might engender such a response in me. I am very fond of Gransnet and feel privileged to have such an enormously wide circle of wise and supportive friends, but also recognise that there are bound to be ups and downs from time to time.
Just seen Bruha's message - stay with it Bruha, just keep on posting.
Hello kissy! Very pleased to meet you .
