Good morning, was rather thrilled to get my first private message last night....someone asking for a date / relationship?!!grin.
I've reported it but just wondered if anyone else has had the pleasure!!

Squiffy Fri 24-Jan-20 10:06:47

Oh yes! I've always missed out in the past so I was really excited, but they wanted a man! sad

I've reported it to HQ.

Nannylovesshopping Fri 24-Jan-20 10:11:14

Yes me too, they also wanted a man, obviously haven’t been shaving my legs smooth enough, and missing a few whiskers on the chin?

SueDonim Fri 24-Jan-20 10:20:55

I had one, as well! Unfortunately, ‘Mariam’ seemed to think I am a man, so I had to disappoint her. grin

MawB Fri 24-Jan-20 10:23:46

At long last -I got one too!
But clearly her language skills have missed that this is a site for grandparents, the majority of them female hmmhmm

Dee1012 Fri 24-Jan-20 10:25:42

Haha....no point in me visiting M&S for some lacy knickers then!!

Greyduster Fri 24-Jan-20 10:32:35

I had that - twice! Thought she must be desperate!

kittylester Fri 24-Jan-20 10:44:53

Missed out again!

BlueSky Fri 24-Jan-20 10:50:46

So anybody can send you a private message? Surely only people on GN? confused

NatashaGransnet (GNHQ) Fri 24-Jan-20 10:53:15

Hi all - we've sorted this for you all now! smile

BlueSky, a user must be registered on Gransnet to send a PM, but if you ever receive any dodgy messages, please do let GNHQ know so we can take action.

BlueSky Fri 24-Jan-20 10:54:45

Thanks Natasha

Dee1012 Fri 24-Jan-20 11:48:26

NatashaGransnet.....thank you.

janeainsworth Fri 24-Jan-20 11:58:43

Perhaps we should all bombard Mariam with short, two word emails?

3nanny6 Fri 24-Jan-20 12:04:48

Oh missed out again and I thought they said blondes always have more fun, perhaps I will go red and see how I get on.

Chestnut Fri 24-Jan-20 12:13:57

I've just reported Miss Mariam, a 29 year old girl from France looking for a man! She must be desperate to use a website for mostly old ladies.

SANDY2020 Fri 24-Jan-20 12:23:14

Lol I'd just send a smiley face and a wink saying no thanks too much effort required I'm lucky if u shave my legs and wash my hair for my own self worth at this point in life nevermind anyone else!!!!!!! Thank god u cannot picture message or have photos youd all be very dissatisfied I'm sure!!!!!

boheminan Fri 24-Jan-20 12:29:58

3nanny6 I've got red hair and didn't get a message either sad oh dear...

M0nica Fri 24-Jan-20 15:49:31

Why didn't I get one, didn't I match up? I am not usually left out in the cold! sad grin

Charleygirl5 Fri 24-Jan-20 15:57:52

I have not had one for many weeks. I am sure I was missed out because I have had the lurgy and it is still around- she possibly did not want to catch it. I also am the wrong sex- oh dear- not a lot I can do about that.

BlueBelle Fri 24-Jan-20 15:59:57

Oh I m blonde but not loved this time ? don’t worry Monica we can cry into our porridge together

Elegran Fri 24-Jan-20 16:05:21

Bluesky they join Gransnet just like everyone else. Anyone can join, and any member can send a private message. If the message is an unsuitable one, report it - they will then find that they are no longer a member, and they won't be accepted again!

grumppa Fri 24-Jan-20 16:11:05

So why didn't I get the PM? I am qualified in one respect at least.

NanKate Fri 24-Jan-20 16:27:56

I was one of the chosen few.

BlueSky Fri 24-Jan-20 16:58:55

Thanks Eligran so was she looking for romance? wink

Nortsat46 Fri 24-Jan-20 17:13:16

I got one ... but am clearly not Miss Mariam’s target audience...
