Hello,
I've been "loitering with intent" for some time and decided to take the plunge and join.
I am 66yrs young, have a great DH, a "tricky" DD and lost my DS aged 23yrs suddenly 20 yrs ago.
I don't and won't be having any DGC, but have a sweet little Step- GGS thanks to my DD's Step daughter.
Looking forward to chatting with you all.
Flour.

See, lol....signed off Flour, not Fleur...blooming predictive textsmile

Welcome Fleur66. Such a pretty name, and, yes, lots of us have problemswith predictive text, or in my case fingers who do not listen and type what they are told to type.

We have a good range of subjects on here from the frivolous to the highly serious and you can ignore all those that do not interest you.

You family circumstances are very similar to many others on GN, anyway, welcome

Oh hello Fleur66. I'm sure I'm not the only one who will be welcoming you to Gransnet. There is plenty of conversations to be had, some lively, some contemplative, some just nice chats about anything that takes your fancy! Look forward to chatting to you in the near future.

Welcome Fleur. I hope you enjoy joining in and hope to โ€˜seeโ€™ more of you.

Welcome Fleur66,
Am sure you will enjoy being on GN, if you have been loitering you probably know you way around a bit. This helps. If you just want to pop in and out or make friends is entirely up to you.
Take care
