Who would you like to meet. That’s it really, though they must be living. And can we add GNers one would like to meet.

I am in regular contact with GSM and she does read the threads and on her behalf would like me to thank you for the comments about wanting to meet her and she said she would like to meet you as well and she really appreciates what has been said.
It is a shame and a loss to this site that she cannot post any more…

That's good to know. Please tell her she is very much missed.

Hi Shinamae it is so frustrating as GSM lives just a few miles from me!!

^I would have liked to have met Greatnan, Jingl and Phoenix although we were in email contact - all three sadly missed^

Good post Maw. Though Greatnan did tell me off when I first joined.

I was in pm contact with GreatNan but not sure I’d have been brave enough to meet her in case I picked the day she got out of the wrong side of bed.

She could be really scary! 😮😱

Yes there are a few Kates.

Oh sorry Kate1949.
I must have mixed you up with a different Kate on here. She must have been the one with a few difficulties with her mother, who has only recently died.

Anyway, it would still be nice to meet you. Sorry to hear about your father.

Yes really Mt61.

Madalene. No difficulties with my mother. She died at 58. I had a drunken, violent, abusive father.

Beechnut Tall but curvy. Brown eyes and soft curly brown hair,. Soft features too.

You’ve got some right 😀

I’d like to meet GSM too. Sadly I never exchanged email addresses with her and so I cannot contact her. I would very much like to meet her though.

Kate49 I think you’re the person who had some difficulties with your mother, but you loved her and did so much for her. I had a similar situation with my mother and so I’d like to meet you too.

I've met many celebrities, including David Attenborough, Michael Caine, Tom Jone and best of all the all time 'love of my life' George Harrison. Many more. Some at book signings some not. My starstruck days have gone. The only exception might be Paul McCartney. I've seen him a few times but never to talk to. Not that I talked to George. He talked, I gawped.

Really? 😊

What do I look like to you JamesandJon33?

*biglouis*, I have met Princess Anne and, as you might guess, she was really on top of her brief.

Indeed.

She is quite an interesting woman. The person who introduced us talked me up in advance, assuming I couldn't hold my own - wrong, she's interested in normal everyday people and their lives.

Or she plays a good game...

When I was young I went to a celebration of ‘Girl’ magazine in Cardiff. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if there was a similar GN thing. Meet everyone. …butI suppose that would negate the privacy and anonymity which GN relies on.Pity really as I have a mental picture of everyone. It would be interesting to see how near they were to reality.

I’ve met Paul McCartney. He’s really boring.

I’d like to meet Samuel West, and Anthony Dowell (famous ballet dancer in his day, in his 80s (70s?) now). Oh, and Alan Bennett.

I was always grateful for the one girl who was less desirable in a sports team than I was. I was never last to be chosen, just second to last!

The Pope.

Any GN member, all interesting, always something to learn.

Just to be clear JamesandJon is just one person.

Famous people - Dave Grohl, Billie Joe Armstrong and Kathy Burke.
And I'm happy to be a fully paid-up member of the 'chosen last for PE' club too! I'd happily meet any GNetter - even the ones with whom I often cross swords.

The Princess of Wales
Wendy Cope the poet

M0nica because I like her fairly tough no-nonsense attitude

I agree kitty

Kate1949, I'd like to meet you - I think we'd bond.

Nobody, really. Though as I get older I do have an increasingly long and grumpy list of people I'd cross the road to avoid.

Me too 😂😂😂😂😂

This is a bit like the last person to be chosen for a team in a PE lesson 😱

Flat footed, no competitive, short,new at the school.

The memories come flooding back.
