Where is she?

True, *harrigran’.

I'd miss you harri!

I have been here since the first few days of GN and have been known to go on holiday for more than three weeks and never been missed. I think we tend to worry about those that we know are having problems.

Wot hello x ?

ariadne appeared in the kitchen and then disappeared again. Unless I'd had too much and imagined it.

Hello! Wot here! Just a bit subdued due to on going heart problems and lack of anything interesting to say!

Alima, I can't remember that one! I did post about how an over-cooked and rather crispy fried egg was applied to DH's (bare) nether regions when he made an ill-judged criticism about my cookery efforts in our early days of being together. Could that have been the post, perhaps? Being remembered for such (delicate) matters must only be a good thing ?!
Urmstongran, yes. I very much agree with your comment. I remember that day very well, when I was sitting on a bus and it had dawned on me what I'd just posted about a close family member. I couldn't wait to get home and that was when I changed my name. It's a long time ago now but I'm wary what I post now. I was in a cold sweat that day (but looking back, I know that the person who may have identified themselves in my post wouldn't have cared less - and still doesn't... Hey-ho (as our Baggs would say)!

I was thinking how much better it might be Marelli for your family not to know your pen name in case you needed anonymity - should you ever want to come on and post about a family problem. How can you do that if your family read your posts?

Don’t often see you post now Marelli. I think the funniest thread ever on GN was the one about you swearing at neighbours if I remember rightly.

I have stayed the course, having joined 2 months after Gransnet started. I used to be Greenmossgiel, but changed my name due to concerns that my posts may be misconstrued by family members if they happened to read them at the time. ?

Some names mentioned here are still here but under different names ( obviously I won’t say what the new names are, that’s for them to come out and say, or not.)
Also, some, like wot and wilma are still here but post infrequently. I don’t have much time for GN, usually dive in for ten mins here and there as life gets busy, and think it’s the same for a lot of people.

I too have been on here pretty much since the beginning. I only post on a few threads though.

I think phoenix was here in the beginning and I've been here since very soon after. And maw might have been here since the early days.

Ana and Anya are both missed.

I wonder if anyone has stayed the course and been on GN from the beginning?

Beau, you will find Panache in Soops kitchen.

Panache is the one I have noticed the absence of most as she used to post quite often. I do wonder if she is ok as she had multiple health problems if I remember correctly.

Christinefrance seems to have gone

I still miss Frank

I thought I’d seen something from Wot recently, but I can’t check because the search facility’s not working (has anyone else noticed that? Nonnie).

I liked Wot and Wilmaknickersfit, hope they are both fit and well

I too miss Jing even though I had an occasional run in with her. HQ got rid of her I believe.

Nonnie I responded to you! Am I invisible?

I miss the posts from OldMeg

Pompa, soontobe (both had later name changes), grannylyn, wot

Crow, Sewsilver, Grannylin, Oldgreymare, Manic ...?
