gillieB just go into Local on the banner above and you are probably already logging it to that site unless you have been looking at others, on the left hand side there is a forum tab you will find your post there, have you looked at the Hexham site?

gillybob Thu 11-Apr-13 13:34:41

I cant even get the Newcastle one. Keeps going to Hexham ! confused

moomin Thu 11-Apr-13 14:28:55

I've replied to the North Yorkshire site and also the Durham for good measure wink

glassortwo Thu 11-Apr-13 14:30:53

glassortwo Thu 11-Apr-13 14:31:21

london thats great.

moomin Thu 11-Apr-13 14:32:44

Ooh no! Must look - defo spoilt for choice up here as you say! A National Meetup would be really good smile

moomin Thu 11-Apr-13 14:34:05

Really must get ready to go to the dreaded hairdressers now . . .

Goose Thu 11-Apr-13 14:44:07

I must say, I'm finding this local forum thingy a bit confusing. I ended up googling Gransnet Oxford and posted a message on the site given there. I seem to be the only poster and now am anxious as to whether I've gone about it the right waysad

gillieB
There is no banner and no 'Local' tab on my screen.I've replied to MikeB and Galen but no response online .I'm totally confused.

glassortwo Thu 11-Apr-13 15:03:22

goose there are a few sites which dont have much activity yet as they are waiting for editors, but someone may reply. smile

Movedalot Thu 11-Apr-13 15:03:37

Maniac if you click on the GN banner you will find another one about the local site. I don't know why it isn't accessible from this page. That would make a lot more sense to me.

glassortwo Thu 11-Apr-13 15:04:33

maniac on here or on the local?

glassortwo Thu 11-Apr-13 15:07:26

move Just under the GN logo on the top left of this page,there is a band of different tabs , starts withForums, Local, blogs etc etc, click on the local and it takes you straight to the Locals, you have to pick your own area or you can keep swopping beween them all.

Movedalot Thu 11-Apr-13 15:12:05

Oh Glass I'm going for an eye test on Monday, clearly overdue!

Notso Thu 11-Apr-13 15:15:47

I must be doing something wrong confused

I go to my local page (West Hampshire & New Forest) & click on Local Forums. There are no active discussions or topics listed. Click on the blued Discussions and it takes me back to the main GN list of discussion categories.

Do I need to raise my voice? grin

glassortwo Thu 11-Apr-13 15:17:48

notso there may not be any posted, try posting one. Have you seen the National Meetup thread?

Goose Thu 11-Apr-13 15:28:05

glassortwo Thanks for info, I've finally managed to find my local branch - and (traaa-laaa) postedgrin

Notso Thu 11-Apr-13 15:28:47

There isn't anything posted glass and when I try try to get the ball rolling with a post it takes me back to the main GN site.

Off to the National Meetup thread now....have been Googling 'centre of the UK' smile

glassortwo Thu 11-Apr-13 15:48:50

notso I am not sure whats wrong, send message to HQ might be gremlins.
