Blimey, looks as though an invasion's imminent...hmm

Ana Sat 08-Feb-14 20:08:29

The emoticons are all GNHQ's idea - we've had most of our requests for more appropriate ones disallowed! [hmph emoticon]

They don't have sunshine one though.

Bon Marche, comfy shoes, Moi!

B----r, they are right. grin

Ana Sat 08-Feb-14 20:34:34

No they're not! (Apart from the shoes...blush)

I'm only boring and sedate on days with a 'y' in them.

bikergran Sat 08-Feb-14 21:13:52

shock!

Ana Sat 08-Feb-14 21:17:09

Don't they realise there are people who are members of BOTH sites!??

Soutra Sat 08-Feb-14 21:17:14

S*d it! I reserve the right to be as sedate and boring as I like! Or not as the case may be

Lona Sat 08-Feb-14 21:20:03

Don't tell them Ana, they'll be joining in droves!

Galen Sat 08-Feb-14 21:23:03

I am actually!

margaretm74 Sat 08-Feb-14 21:23:35

Today DH said I was weird. But I do make him laugh. So I may be sedate but not boring, surely?

DD2 says we are like a comedy double-act.

Ana Sat 08-Feb-14 21:24:03

Boring or sedate, Galen? grin
(Certainly not both...)

Dragonfly1 Sat 08-Feb-14 21:27:17

I've just been over to mumsnet to see what the fuss is about - hilarious! Are we allowed to use language like that on GN or would we be *Jingled* barred?

Galen Sat 08-Feb-14 21:27:31

Member of both! But don't post over there!

Certainly I'm sedate and probably boring.

Nelliemoser Sat 08-Feb-14 21:29:43

How dare they the cheeky B******S! Can someone still on mumsnet get over there and tell them to look in.

Nelliemoser Sat 08-Feb-14 21:32:11

Right Galen and Dragonfly1 please get over there now and tell them.

Nelliemoser Sat 08-Feb-14 21:33:48

Pretty please? grin

Ana Sat 08-Feb-14 21:40:27

Oh, get over yourselves....grin

Pittcity Sat 08-Feb-14 21:40:56

I am member of both and feel most at home here.
Reading the MN thread it seems there are too many old people on there trying to be young....here on GN we are youngsters trying to act mature!

FlicketyB Sat 08-Feb-14 21:43:30

But they do not know about the underground Gransnet where we all let our hair down drink too much and sing bawdy songs.

margaretm74 Sat 08-Feb-14 21:43:39

Don't try too hard!

Dragonfly1 Sat 08-Feb-14 21:48:08

I've done it. I've signed up and am going to be a MN lurker. I might even post....
