New to gransnet

You are very welcome Kakey you’re right we’re all missing our families.

Hi Kakey??Welcome to gransnet.
Mick’s good morning thread is a nice gentle and welcoming thread to start each day and soops kitchen is very warm and friendly too.

Hi, I saw the same thing on tv this morning. I used to be on Mumsnet, but I'm now a proud nanny to 3 lovely girls, almost 13, 9 and 13 months.

Welcome kakey.

What susan said!

Hello kakey, my Grand lives in the US with her mum and dad. Doesn't stop us sharing pictures and having a laugh tho, despite the 5hr difference.
Enjoy GN and enjoy your family.

Hi kakey, hope you enjoy being here. It can have its ups and downs, but you should always find something to interest you. What were they saying on the tv about us?

Well here I am finally done it , I am a grandma to 1 grand son and 4 grand daughters , ages are from (1 boy 22 )( 2 girls , 20) , and twin girls 15 . I have never done anything like this before and im quite nervous .
So I am just saying hello for now .x

Welcome to all new Gransnetters! I hope you enjoy being on here as much as I do - and I wasn't even a GRAN when I first joined 3 or 4 years ago. But now I am - since May last year I have had an adorable GRANDSON.
Once again WELCOME to you ALL x

Hi, I saw the lady from Gransnet on television this morning and googled it out of interest. I found a lot of the comments interesting particularly those who asked if anyone had been sent a shielding letter which they did not agree with. I have been sent one which has caused me a great deal of anxiety. I phoned my doctor and was told I have kidney disease,asthma and take blood thinners. Not true!!Good to know I am not the only person this has happened to

Hello Kakey and all the other new gransnetters. I am new today too. Until seeing the news this morning I didn't know gransnet was a thing either ? . I am also missing my 18 month old granddaughter terribly. We chat on messenger most days but it's just not the same. What makes it even harder is a neighbour of ours has consistently been flouting the social distancing guidelines by having their daughter and her baby visiting almost every day when I haven't been able to see or hug my little Willow for nearly 2 months because we are choosing to do the right thing.
