I made my first comment in the Times yesterday

OMG getting a notification every time someone burps would be my worst nightmare.

But if it makes you happy ...enjoy!

I might knock it on the head in a day or two.

What do you mean 'better than Gransnet'? Oh Jinglbellsfrocks I feel you may have opened a can of worms there

I must admit, I was beginning to wonder where you had got to!

I've made another comment! This one about Stephen Crabbe and the sex message thing. More controversial. Could get scary exciting!

And my inbox could get very full.

They have a good offer on at the moment. £12 for three months. Couldn't resist.

Is there an alternative to GN ?. I joined Silversurfers a while ago, useless. As many of you know I don't like argumentative threads much, but they are 100% better than no threads at all.

jings, I haven't discovered how to make comments online. Please send instructions.

Ah! I think the answer is NOT to use the app.

I was on Munsnet for years. Then I retired and just moved to Gransnet.

I still pop in every now and again, and they do talk about us. They started a discussion on which side of the bed you sleep on, I thought it was whether your current partner was left or right handed that decided it.

I just sleep on whichever side is vacant (it is variable)

As long as you don't stray into the TES forums, jingl. I was on there years ago when I was young and brave and it was a bear den. Made Mumsnet look like a haven of fluffy kittens and roses.

I sleep on the side nearest the bathroom door wherever I am, do not want to stub my toes during the night

I'm blaming you for this, jingl. I've found a Mumsnet thread with lots of the old TES Opinion posters on it, reminiscing about ye olden days. I might as well settle back for the day. I'm just trying to untangle the reason for 3 of the old crowd disappearing after being reported to the police - I must have missed that!

Oh, and apparently it's dead boring on there now. Perhaps you could go on and shake it up a bit.

TES ?

Times Educational Supplement GandT.

Thanks. Go to show that I don't read the "quality" newspapers (or. in fact any newspaper) If BBC news doesn't cover it, it hasn't happened in my world.

Bags I haven't a clue whether I'm using the App or not. I downloaded it. Well, I think I did. It says "downloaded" now. But nothing changed. How do you tell if you are using it or not? Wtf what exactly is an app anyway and what does it do.

I think this could be a case of the blind leading the blind.

Got loads of notifications now (been out) Must go and see what's occurring. [smle]

One recommendation and one was howibble to me. Not too bad.
