Isn’t it quiet? ?

Riverwalk

Ooh, I can't be doing with people who complain that the threads are boring or of little interest.

We are all responsible for providing the entertainment here so don't wait for someone else to start a scintillating thread - get on and do one yerself!

Well, that was me! And a lot of them are rather boring and of little interest (to me) maybe not to others.

I often start threads actually, but at the moment, cannot think of anything that might interest you all.

It’s been said before, but many familiar names no longer seem to post, maybe they have become ‘lurkers’?

Hope this works

Ps I want to get my rubber gloves and scrubbing brush after watching that

young men appear to get drawn on all over their bodies too and shave all their body hair but wear it on their face

I’m going to run with the boys wearing nail polish - well men really - ummm - my daughter’s boyfriend is 25 and wears black nail polish - I know I’m supposed to be ok with it but it makes me feel weird and I don’t know why!

Mainly about climate change Fanny

I don't think it was you Callistemon, I don't think you have ever been as rude as the person I reported. But when I'm on a roll, anybody is fair game ?

Yes i too was thinking how quiet it is FannyCornforth.
Holidays maybe?.

Mumsnet seems to have more interesting topics.

If only I could remember my password.....

Oh I don't know....I've ranted at a couple of people today and reported someone for a personal attack.

Business as usual I think

Ooh, did you rant at me??

As long as you didn't report me, carry on!

I thought the people who were desperate to go on holiday might have gone on holiday

Mumsnet seems to have more interesting topics.

I think some of the threads can get quite heated and personal remarks are often made. It could be the reason why a lot of people don’t post. I have noticed the absence of a few members and wondered why they have not posted lately.
There are some really helpful people on this forum and some very interesting threads. It’s been my saviour especially during lockdown not seeing family and friends. I wonder how many marriages it’s saved!

The range of subjects has got very narrow. I enjoy a good controversial political or ethical argument, but only when surrounded by lots lighter, and leaa contentious subjects, and those have been sadly lacking recently

Perhaps it is lockdown fatigue.

Nothing decided yet fannyC, just toying with the idea of a few days in North Norfolk, but then saw a lovely hotel in Majorca, really quiet, on the beach....... Two of my favourite places.

How about you?

I just counted six new threads today, so not that quiet.

It wasn’t quiet in soop’s kitchen last night!

It’s always pretty quiet on here tbh, but especially so atm, lots of people away maybe?

I was going to start a thread today and then felt I sounded ridiculous so deleted it

We’re all out doing stuff. Well I’m not, obviously, but I’m just waiting for Mr. B to get back from his wellness check. The sun is shining so I’m going for a walk, I’m expecting a parcel which is why I’m waiting for him to get back

I don’t really feel like starting any threads as I’m feeling a bit picked on in some quarters lately. I’m sure it’s just in my imagination but it feels real and I’m not up to dealing with it just now. Love your threads though FannyC so am happy to join in on them.

I always look down the Active thread first thing in the morning, and apart from ‘The Games’(aargh), so often it seems to be the same old, same old.

At the risk of sounding a miserable so and so, there often seems little of interest.

Come on, H&M, do something controversial and give us something to fall out about!

Are you going anywhere nice this summer Gill?

Hello Gill!
Over on Mumsnet they are talking about pillows; puppies; Celebrity Masterchef; boys wearing nail polish; problems with neighbours fence; Love Island ?

I was thinking the same. Maybe everyone but us is on holiday?
