Hello Everyone smile
Just wanted to get this in first wink

Fancy some verbal jousting; a bit of rumble; a good old punch up?

Well, you're in the right place! Enjoy!

Any ideas for potential topics please?

Tomorrow, 18th February is Cushion Pride. I hope to see as many cushions paraded on here as possible. Sparkly, sombre, red, blue, square or round, large or small. Out and proud.

Ok you're on! grin
I think you live in Brighton orc was that someone else talking about psychedelic colours? Or maybe that was leggings?

Even my flowery little numbers? Equality for cushions so all should be displayed.

LauraNorder Wed 17-Feb-21 16:37:02

Ooh Alegrias, that Trump/Putin one is prize winning. How about a Boris/Nicola one.

Alegrias1 Wed 17-Feb-21 16:35:53

Can I show my Trump/Putin one, if it arrives in time?

Ooo Alegrias out pops the blame word! You and I both need to be careful!

Don't worry Ellianne, I've nothing to fear, as Lisa will confirm, I'm controlling GN from my underground bunker.

See, I knew you’d admit it, under pressure. You’re already thinking of the next thread, aren’t you? Will it garner enough new trade to justify a bonus?!

Alegrias1 Wed 17-Feb-21 16:30:13

I googled Cushions in case there were any funny ones I could post a picture of. Now Gransnet's advertising partners are bombarding me with this. I blame all you lot!! Especially for the Trump/Putin one ..... ?

One of my dearest friends has had severe life changing back problems for nearly 30 years. It’s a terrible thing to have to live with and a good reason for feeling down.
Being serious now, for just one post .... I had excruciating back pain for months and bought a sausage shaped cushion from a physio to put in the small of my back. It really helped, especially when driving.

AGAA4 Wed 17-Feb-21 16:16:27

ixion I will tread more carefully. You have to in the Argy as the floor hasn't been cleaned for ages.
Fanny is your underground bunker at the Argy?

Same as I'm doing with my Royal wedding 2018 one.

This could be seen as sailing close to the wind re the M word. You better be careful

Suziewoozie what the hell do you think that you are doing, being all calm and measured?

Perhaps it will appear on Antiques Roadshow in 2022?
(Mind you, that's assuming it won't have gone into the threatened skip on my demise?)

I see AGA that the AB Bar has a wider readership?

lemongrove Wed 17-Feb-21 16:04:51

Send it to David Cameron ixion he would love it.

Display it with pride ixion. Cushions can take offence.

Don't ruffle the feathers Fanny. The outer casing might explode.

ixion Wed 17-Feb-21 15:59:18

What should I do with my Brexit flag cushion?

I see the pro cushion lobby and their cronies have taken over.

Love that comment! Very clever. Anyway, I bet certain cliques are already p.m-I got one another.

I liked the Argy Bargy thread

So do I. When it's good, it's absolutely brilliant.

My cushions shed white feathers everywhere. Are they surrendering or are there angels stuffed inside, sending messages of hope and peace?

Just go for it, feeling totally fed up with this painful back problem and lockdown. The way I feel at the moment I would just love a dig at the NHS, I know they are saints working hard but I would just love to sound off.

No they are not saints but most of them are doing their best but there are many people not getting the care they need. I’m sorry you’ve got a painful back problem .
