Hello
This post is to say thank you all so much for everything this past year.
I cannot express how much I have gained from your support, help, advice, friendship and fun.
This year has been incredibly tough for me.
As well as the usual Covid stuff, my physical health, chronic pain and mobility have meant that I’m practically housebound.
This has also had a knock on effect with my mental health.
I’ve had to give up my ideal teaching job that I worked so hard for.
And my husband has been very, very poorly indeed.
So, on today, my first GN Fanniversary*
I just want to say thank you to Gransnetters for always being here when I needed distraction and company flowers ♥️ smile x

thanks *Alegrias for your sleuthing!

That year has flown by - happy anniversary FC. I joined just before you, but can’t remember when. I did enjoy your Night Owls thread - we must all be sleeping better now! I hope the next 12 months will be an improvement on the past 12 for you and MrC. X

Happy Fannyversary FannyCornforth. You are so cheerful and lively. One would never know you have been having such a hard time. I too enjoy your posts and your NightOwls thread got me through a bad patch. I hope the next year is a better one for you and MrC
As someone else said, we should thank you.?

Wishing you and your DH much improved health for the next year Fanny. I remember how you were viewed with much suspicion at first, some thought you were a t----. flowers

Very best wishes for the next year Fanny.
I especially like your tales of bedroom "kettle cuisine" ?

MrsJeeves Wed 15-Sept-21 07:50:11

Happy fanniversary Fanny, I joined at the same time as you but have mostly lurked. I always enjoy your posts, and Gransnet generally, and will try to bring more to the party this year!

Oh thank you GrandMattie for taking time to post on here.
Like so many, my thoughts really are with you, and my heart goes out to you.
Here is a? for you too ?

Thank you to everyone else for your lovely comments ♥️

Happy Fanniversary. I love your take on things. Your posts are always very entertaining and you sound as if you’re full of fun, despite all the things you’ve been going through. May you and your husband have better times ahead. ? GN has also been my go-to place for opinions on all matters and sometimes for a downright good laugh during this last dire 18 months. Long may it continue.

Moth62 Wed 15-Sept-21 11:57:50

Could I just also add my deepest sympathies to grandMattie. ?

BlueSky Wed 15-Sept-21 12:12:15

Is it a year already Fanny? Yes I didn’t know who your name sake was, to my eternal shame, but we do learn something new every day, as they say. I agree with the others, you have such an upbeat attitude that nobody would guess your and your DH’s health problems. Agree GN can be a really supporting place, to share the good, and not so good, things life throws at us. xflowers

Hazeld Wed 15-Sept-21 12:19:20

Happy Fannyversary to you both and I hope the next 12 months are better than the last flowers

mokryna Wed 15-Sept-21 12:26:34

Happy Faniversaire, I remember when you came online, it was a dark time for everyone but you were so bubbly with your ideas and you still are. You seemed to be always online either on the thread ‘night owls’ or the days ones. I thought, in the beginning, that must be two people paid by the government as confort for older people.
I am sorry that both you and your partner have had such a bad year and wish you all the best for the future.
How is your dog and cat?

Nannan2 Wed 15-Sept-21 12:28:16

Glad we helped a little- hope you have a better next year- ??

Happy Faniversary, wishing you a better year to come flowers
