I'm going to stick to the thread title and say what I DO like about Gransnet.
I have received tremendous support from gransnetters who have helped me get through some very tough times. I enjoy the breadth of discussion, the variety of topics and the diversity of opinion. I have taken vicarious pleasure in reading news of 'highs' and similarly I have sympathised, or empathised with many of the 'lows'. The picture threads often delight me and although I rarely contribute to the 'virtual' threads I'm glad that they give enjoyment to so many. I feel privileged to have shared in some very special events; births, deaths, etc. I have attended two meet ups and have been delighted with the face to face experience and the hospitality I have received. (Thanks Gally)
In short, (yes, I know I've already gone on for far too long) I like almost everything about being part of this online community.
