I'm over 50 . .

Stansgran I hope not I'm a member on both unless I get automatically x- communicated when I reach a certain age

Rockgran, it's the fault of the people who called this GRANSnet! I also wasn't sure at first whether I "qualified".

Is there an age Limit on netmums or Mumsnet ?

Marelli, I don't want to jinx things! Shhh for a bit longer.

Jane, LOL.

I hope we are still "people" and not just defined by our "granny-ness". I'm more worried about a child of 50 being on here!

That was supposed to be a capital 'I' - but it looks like a small 'l'.

Oooh! Grannyknot - are you perhaps going to be a GrannyIs ?

And there was me thinking that you were married to a sailor or something...

Hi, desertmum I wish I was 50! At 64, I don't have any grandchildren either, hence my name is a play on Granny (not)!

I've a funny feeling though that I may soon have to apply for a change of name

thank you for the welcomes! I do have kids, but hoping not to be a grandma too soon!

We aren't just grandmas, are we? Not by a long chalk. I wasn't even all that happy when I found out that I was going to be a grandma, although I love them dearly now. I'm just hanging on in my 50s.

I had a wonderful 50th birthday but tinged now with a bit of sadness as it was the last time all my siblings and Mum and Dad were together. Great memory though.

Welcome, I think I might have been fifty but I can't remember.

Welcome desertmum I do not recognise the no.50! It may have appeared in the dim and distant past.

Welcome Desertmum, it`s a long time since I was 50!
