Isn’t it lovely how most of us like to check in with our virtual friends on the GM thread.

I just assumed a glitch all along, but that is a useful check, thank you, ferry, copied it .

Missed it..then proceeded to tackle the list of 8 birthdays coming up in the next 5 weeks. 3 cards, 5 presents, nearly all sorted, and unusually good exchange with DiL.

This what I read and probably scaremongering.

Maybe a taste of things to come having read the other day that some internet providers are looking to ration internet access due to their rising costs. If it happens those that are attached to the hip with their mobiles will need counselling grin

The providers won’t be limiting their output.
Not all but some will be charging more per month. Not all of them, though, giffgaff have frozen their prices for a year.
So many people are unaware of how much DATA apps use.
Apps are using DATA continuously even though you might not be using them. Ie, you’re paying for something that you don’t necessarily need.

Hi folks sorry about that. Things should be back to normal now. Apologies for the downtime.

Aveline Sat 25-Apr-26 15:36:03

Oh good. I thought was maybe my phone playing up.

AGAA4 Sat 25-Apr-26 14:34:26

I have been trying all morning and no luck. I was thinking I would have to email Gransnet HQ to see if it was just my phone.

TerriBull Sat 25-Apr-26 14:14:01

Oh good! GN it's back, I thought it was me.
