A thread for insignificant posts that don't need a thread of their own

Ahem, yes I know I said that and I did, but that was between you me and the gatepost Marelli

Petallus YOU ARE WORTH IT

Follow the Heron, The Parting Glass, Hero and Ho hey.
First two are being sung by Leven Singers, second two given to me by number one son.
I still keep logging on though for news.

I believe they are not what they are cracked up to be and a waste of money Sorry!

The chocolates, the pillow or the Leven Singers?

Grandmanorm - are they 'folksy' Dougie McLean sort of songs? Used to listen a lot to that sort of music.
And Gally, I'll resemble a bloomin' gatepost if I carry on like this....a really solid one!!

Marelli not folksy. Apparently The Parting Glass was the precursor to Auld Lang Sine.
Dougie McLean is going to be in Perth concert Hall this month but tickets are very expensive!!!
Hero is sung by Family of the Year and Ho Hey by The Lumineers.
I hasten to add I have no connection whatsoever with any of the composers.

Thank you Gally !

Must admit, I do like the "no spring chicken" one, but the artwork seems familiar, or perhaps it's just that I've seen something similar before.

Don't think that I stand a chance of winning now, but I was rather pleased with the way that Mr.P represented my idea. It was supposed to capture a whole load of things about us members and the sort of Gransnet ethos!

Ah - The Parting Glass does sound a tender song, Grandmanorm. 'Ae Fond Kiss' was my favourite of Burns' songs.
I'd love to see Dougie McLean again.

Done it, as well phoenix. Good luck!

Where is it phoenix - I've not done it!

Phoenix where do we vote in the "tea towel" comp? didn't realise we could vote...

You can find it either in the latest newsletter or in Competitions, on the right side under latest news, about the third point down (hope that's correct).

Just come across this thread, so I'm harking back to the second post to remind OGM that it is a waste of time fancying Chris Packham.

Doing daft things in the kitchen - I have set the coffee filter machine going without various ingredients, no coffee, no water, and once no jug to catch the coffee. I went away after switching it on, came back to a kitchen swimming in coffee.

Nor me

Voted!

Stupid me!! Just realised its on the posts page on the right under Latest from Gransnet.

I have spent lunch time trying to please a 29 week pregnant DD who is 30 tomorrow, trying to find a place to eat lunch that fit her criteria, and where we ended up was c**p but never mind the DGC loved it.
