Can Non-Gran People Post?

Of course you can post here neligentmother we are not all grandparents. Welcome to Gransnet.

Yay! Thanking you kindly. Spent a short while looking for a "Non-Grans" section but then saw there wasn't one so though "Oh dear... am I safe?"

Have you come over from the dark side (Mumsnet)

Well, you didn't actually have to tell anyone you aren't a grandparent, Negligent! Just dive in...

Actually no - I've lurked on Mumsnet but didn't fancy diving in over there so came here instead. Too much talk of babies and toddlers and feminism stuff that's a bit too heavy for my liking.

I know I could've just chosen not to say anything but then there may be have a been a discussion further down the line about grand-kids or cake and then I'd be busted and no more trusted.

Oh cake is a necessity, you cant get past GNHQ without it but dont need Grandchildren.

Be thee welcome me dearie!

Love your profile sketch!

Hey Glass & Galen are we all having a late night on GN or what,I've been trying to upload some more pic's of wedding but have got gremlins in the system I think.
Negligent don't worry about the DGCs just bring & and you can gain entry anywhere you like sweetie.

I am up for a party glamma

galen I have just had a look, its fab neligent.

My daughter sketched it after one of my nieces gave me her "life-like" doll thingy to hold whilst she nipped off somewhere. I don't like dolls much anyway but those dolls freak me out no end.

Later learned my teenage daughter had captured the moment in an illustration which I rather liked.

glass party out of the question my body is still not over the wedding week-end and to be honest I think the 4 x 4 broomstick is out of petrol,I think I had a leaky tank from my last emergency landing,it may have been when the Local Police stopped me as I flew in over The Mersey at our last party at Great Orme,I got caught in the overhead Telephone wires. blame that biker she was a bad influence on me with her suped up transport. Enough frivolity I must get to bed as I have the job of taking the two little ones to church to-morrow they serve on the alter and my DD has Sunday school to do in another room so I am on guard to make sure little man does not perform whilst the Priest is giving his sermon.nite-nite

Hi Negligentmother and welcome. You are certainly not the only member of Gransnet who isn't a grandparent but you might well be the youngest. However, we are not entirely a bunch of old fogies – or at least not all the time – so you may well enjoy yourself.

Really? See - old fogies are my kinda people though. Don't think I'll be bored by any stretch. I love old people, grumpy people and microwaveable slipper-socks.

glamma, glass, Galen, Negligent and anyone else still up, why not hop on your broomsticks, summon a Tardis or whatever and whizz on over to my place? It's just coming up to lunch time here, there is Sauvignon Blanc and home-made quiche in the fridge and the sun is belting down. I apologise for not having got round to buying any garden furniture yet, but we mowed the lawn yesterday or we can sit on the steps outside the sliding doors (they get very warm). I have missed the meet-ups since I left the UK so a virtual meet-up would be good.

Just sticking the microwavable slipper-socks in for a minute first.

absent I think they have all gone off to bed, but a glassortwo and a bit of sunshine will do the power of good, I have missed our get together 's.

Maybe another time. Sleep well everyone.

You don't have to like cake - I don't, except my grand-daughter's coffee and walnut! What makes you think you are negligent? I have always thought a bit of 'benign neglect' is good for children.

pricks ears up! was my name mentioned and the word "broomsticks" gosh!! do you realise it is coming up to the 2nd Halloween party!!

welcome Negligentmother

Welcome Negligent I do like your sense of humour.

Welcome, Negligent. What Greatnan neglected (geddit?) to tell you was, no, she might not like cake, but she luuuurves cream! If it was up to her, she would pour it on cereal, porridge, soup, fruit and anything else in her sights

Tell tale! Just for that, I am going to start buying full cream instead of half cream. In for a penny.......
