I’m so very sorry to hear about Soop. She was such a lovely and enduring presence on Gransnet for so long. Her tales of the cats, and the glorious sunset photos. My heart goes out to McS, and to her lovely family.

Please pass on my condolences and love to all of soop's family - especially McSporran. I will remember the lovely pms she sent to me at various times.

Sending love to you also, Baggs. This must have been a difficult time for you.

Thank you Baggs an awful time for you too. She is now at rest, but my heart goes out to Mr Soop.

I loved the online discussions we had about cats, which we both loved.

It was not unexpected but she is now at rest.

Haven’t posted in the kitchen for a long time now but could not ignore the sad news about soop whose kindness was so evident to all around her. She generously offered to paint my favourite “grand dog” at a time when I had a lot family worries. It meant a lot. Condolences to all who loved her, especially her dear man. Rest in peace dear soop, you’ll not be forgotten.
