Greatnan

Little old lady!! A few of us have met Greatnan at north-west meet-ups when she's been staying locally. She's a risk-taking mountaineer with a penchant for disappearing into brambles and skidding down slopes with no idea where she's going to end up!!

Love it ha ha ha!!! This is so true! I often wonder what "we" look like and of course have my mental images (some more mental than others!) I am of course sylph- like, tall and willowy as you could tell with a name redolent of the elegance of my"daughter namesake" in Monaco

And swims with sharks - although I think they have the good sense to keep out the way!

How about you, overthehill? I bet you are not! Why not upgrade your profile so that your name is in blue and we can learn a bit about you?

It is funny how we do create images of people based on the little bits of info we have! Through work I often speak to the same people regularly and have an image of what they look like: height, age, hair colour etc etc... occasionally we meet up and it is often a surprise to find out how wrong I was!

Just a thought... maybe we should have avatars for ourselves if posters do not want photos!

Penstemmon I get that feeling all too often when I look in the mirror or even worse, catch sight of myself in a shop window

gracesmum you and me both..who are those women??

Shysal

NO......I don't disclose any info about myself other than can be gleaned from my posts.

I can tell you I am not beauty with thin hair and plenty of body fat.

Quite happy to read about others though, as you can tell.

Well of course with all the moving I am fit and slim and totally gorgeous.

Me too, Moved - even without all the moving!

And we are kind and caring, intelligent and all round wonderful are we not Ana?

Absolutely!

Ana , Moved,

to u both !!

+ a of course !!

But that is true of all gransnetters! There is not one of us who is not slim, beautiful, elegant, gorgeously dressed and shod, our hair fashionably styled. Our houses are spotlessly clean, our children and grandchildren love us and do exactly as we want them to, our spouses are devoted, our colleagues love us . . . Lets face it, we are perfect!

Exactly Elegran perfect description of all of us I suspect.

What was that pink thing which just flew past my window? [Smile]

yes, well, one of our more adventurous members is how I would describe gn

Liz , oops the price of bacon has gone up !!

Nonu

I can confirm that gn is not the conventional image of a great-grandmother - no rocking chair and knitting for her. Hiking poles and stout boots are her equipment. She is an excellent driver on those Alpine roads with infinite numbers of hairpin bends - should have been a rally driver! She's also a great hostess.

"Wonder woman" is how I would describe Greatnan
