A polite request! Please don't "darken" light threads.

I really think it's time you all started to act your ages.............or maybe you are!

Act your shoe size, not your age!

I'm six - nah nah da nah nah

Buffybee so so sorry but I had to go for a lie down in a darkened room having strayed on to another thread. I am well aware I am an ill informed idiot but I do not have to be reminded!!!!

I then went to Waitrose and although I am partially sighted I do not qualify for a guide dog yet so your little darling stayed with you. I did not want to tie her up outside because somebody may well have stolen her and I am in enough trouble it would appear.

an opinion

(been at the poteen already, sorry!)

where everyone behaves appropriately to the whim of the OP
ffin - it's not always the OP, in fact not usually the OP - someone posts and opinion then along comes someone who is opinionated , trying to control the thread!

Frothing poteen sounds good - although this thread keeps making me mutter an evening prayer about lightening the darkness.

OK Lemon I am popping in.. tentatively!

I am inviting all of you over to The Argy Bargy Bar, where I am setting up pints of frothing poteen ( homemade of course) free to those who lighten the dark threads and those who darken the light threads and the many shades of grey inbetween .After a few, we shall all be good friends.

Where's Charleygirl????
She was supposed to be looking after my little dog ?!
And she's just turned up full of lipstick ? ?? kiss marks all over her fur.

Will there be music?

Isn’t a jolly ‘nonsense’ thread a delight to have. ?.
phoenix you come up with some corkers. We should have one more often to lighten the spirits.
Bags I sit next to galen so I can share her goodies. Nothing like a good gherkin! ?

I’d bring olives, some crusty bread and no end of bottles of Port!

None of the threads on here are like mumsnet ones! Very brave if you post on one of those.
I thought I was helping on a phonics thread once ( infant teacher for 40 years) but got shot down in flames by a very fierce young teacher!

Can I come bearing gherkins, wacky baccy and vodka jellies?
What happened to the cat/dog Donald with his burned nether regions?

Maw, PECS ?

Fishpieplease I love Henning Wehn ???

Yummy GG is there any space for one more and please may I bring a doggy bag because I may well fancy a (toasted) sandwich later on this evening.

I am not sure if an earworm would be allowed in. Admittedly if it moved my cat would dive on to it so end of.

googling Gravadlax

This thread is so uplifting. Thank you all. May I add an ear worm to the frivolity? Saw the wonderful German Ambassador of comedy,Henning Wehn recently. He had a chant of “Get on with it” running through the show. Although it was a reference to the dreaded Brexit,I find myself repeating it whenever I feel inpatient. Nice to be able to say that without fear of snide comment.

Good morning all just back from Aldi, they had Gravadlax on special so I bought the whole box.

I am hiding from lots of people including Mr.GG13 who wants to go car shopping!! I have not got any indoor pets to bring with me, but have tied up my horse to the gate post.

I agree LadyGracie- I had my head bitten off recently for asking what to do with a coat somebody left here nearly 6 months ago. Somebody else had their comment deleted, unbelievable.

This post will be classed as stupid by many- fine by me.

I think some on Gransnet are darn right nasty, particularly if one has differing opinions.

I read but only occasionally comment and when I do, I seem to shut the thread down, I’m more often than not the last comment.

I do enjoy some lighthearted banter or humour.

The sort of sun bed I meant was really just a comfy lounger (can be indoors really). I am the furthest thing from a sun worshiper you can imagine (pasty faced whatever the temperature) but I do like a relaxing lounger. I may just nod off.?? will someone please wake me when the gentlemen arrives ...with or without his relish.?

I never did find Pendle Hill. My geography is rubbish and my sat nav took me to a forest in Wales.

biker I missed Pendle Hill I think I got lost flying over the M6 and had to call the RAC to get me home again.

pheonix I feel a "Virtual party" coming on behind your sofa.
