lovebeigecardigans1955 Sat 16-Oct-21 16:51:19

I'm not a Gran either ... I flip over to the other place too under a different name.

GrannyMacawell Sat 16-Oct-21 16:53:33

Lol..i deleted my account on the other place...it was getting to angry and judgemental.....i suppose i will be tempted back at some point

Scones Sat 16-Oct-21 16:54:34

Your other name can't possibly be as fabulous as lovebeigecardigans1955

I too love beige cardigans. Also not a Gran. Shhhhh don't tell.

It's good to know who people are thanks and even that they are people someone on this site once suggested I wasn't a real person presumably because I'm not so good always replying on time or even making sense all the time technology bah humbug

Kandinsky Sat 16-Oct-21 16:58:34

Welcome op.
I’m banned from the other place grin

Lol thats brilliant!

Scones Sat 16-Oct-21 17:36:49

Crikey Kandinsky I'm impressed. I've read some pretty shocking stuff on the other site so you must have said something VERY exciting to get banned. grin

Audi10 Sat 16-Oct-21 17:39:35

I actually love both places, and frequent them quite often

BlueSapphire Sat 16-Oct-21 17:51:25

Me too! I frequently visit the other place and have a different name over there. I am a gran and a mum!

Kandinsky Sat 16-Oct-21 17:56:04

Haha.
It wasn’t one thing tbh.
I was a member there for almost 10 years but kept breaking talk guidelines.
Had 2 temporary bans ( 1 week I think? ) and was on a final warning.
I don’t think I was any worse than a lot of people over there, I just got reported more ? - but I still read MN now & again & find it funny at times ( although not as funny as it used to be ) but I don’t miss it now. Definitely moved on. ( 58 with 3 grandchildren I’m not really their target audience )

Kandinsky Sat 16-Oct-21 17:58:40

I’ve never been banned from anywhere else I hasten to add, been on here for ages no problem. Netmums for years no problem, same with FB.

Kandinsky Sat 16-Oct-21 17:59:42

Crikey sorry op I’ve taken over your debut thread grin
< runs >

Woodmouse Sat 16-Oct-21 17:59:51

I'm not a gran either. I really like the other place though.

What a compliment I hope you enjoyed it.smile

rubysong Sat 16-Oct-21 21:31:04

I daren't go to the other place in case the mother of my DGC is having a moan about me. (Only joking! She's lovely really.)

Jaxjacky Sat 16-Oct-21 21:47:57

An accolade Kandinsky ?.
GrannyMacawell you’re welcome, there are others here, no children or grandchildren, all of us join in ?

sodapop Sun 17-Oct-21 09:19:39

Yes you are welcome GrannyMacawell it's not compulsory to have grandchildren. smile

GrannyMacawell Sun 17-Oct-21 09:32:42

Thanks sodapop...are you a fan of "the outsiders"?

Witzend Sun 17-Oct-21 11:32:41

You’re not the only one, GrannyMacawell, I regularly visit the Other Place too - it’s nearly always far more interesting than here!

Me too.. I've been crying with laughter at times, at some of the topics.

henetha Sun 17-Oct-21 11:42:11

I've never explored the other place. Might it be a bit too fierce for me, possibly? (I hate conflict).

DiscoDancer1975 Sun 17-Oct-21 11:56:39

Is the ‘ other place’ Mumsnet? I go there sometimes....different name. Usually though, by the time I get the threads, they’re already pages long...and I can’t be bothered.

Namsnanny Sun 17-Oct-21 12:40:50

How so Witzend?
Better topics, more broad ranging? Or more argumentative?
Could thise from the other side suggest topics that would 'liven' things up?

MerylStreep Sun 17-Oct-21 12:48:54

how so, Witzend
For a start they are treated as adults unlike on here where we are viewed as someone in their dotage.
