Local Forums

Probably because the local forums are not launched yet. No-one knows it is there. When it is launched there will be members.

Congratulations on the local launch. I've just been on the Manchester site, which is very quiet so far. Is anyone else finding lots of activity on their local site?

Nothing on the Berkshire site as yet.

Not dure whether the Berkshire site has its editor appointed yet.

Here is a different article - www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-22062787

Slightly more realistic photo, at least!

Interesting discussion on radio 2 at the moment: Has Mumsnet become a monster!

Sorry! Just spotted that J was way ahead of me with a thread!

Hi moonraker.
The Hexham site is very quiet, still asleep I think.

Yes I had a peep yesterday Glass and there doesn't appear to be anything there other than the headings.

Good morning gilly the Northumberland is the same, the Northallerton site has a good bit on.

The Newcastle site is the same a couple of posts on the Forum, GillieB has posted( not seen her for ages, have you?) but all the sub sections seem empty.

South Yorkshire Local doesn't seem to have any entries or posts and I looked at a couple of others to find the same. Are we waiting for advertisers or members to post information?

Chester seems to be up and running but not many topics or posters yet.

Like the look of it so far.

If your local forum looks a bit bare, the solution is to post something - anything - to start the ball rolling. People are scared of an blank page but once it gets going they respond. It is the first impetus that takes a bit of effort. (not that the Edinburgh site has an awful lot of posts yet)

Let's think of something, Sook. We Cestrians should be able to fill a local forum.

I've added posts in a couple of places anno, as well as the Manchester one. We could put our next N-West meet-up on there.

Morning Geraldine...re.`local posts` is there one up and running yet for South Staffordshire specifically Cannock,Lichfield,Tamworth area yet? what does being an editor require?Information required please.

Lilygran hello I am in Sheffield. Perhaps we could start something!

imbroglio I really like your GN name! What had you in mind?

Nothing here in Ealing either I've just posted see if there is any response, fingers crossed.
