Thank you so much for Dylan's Dinosaurs which was left with a neighbour . She just brought it round. My little grandson is staying with us this week and loves dinosaurs so I cant wait to read it to him in the morning.

Thank you for my Dylan copy too. Especially love the 'real' dinosaur at the back of the book. This book will be loved by my grandchildren. smile

Thank you for my copy of Dylan's Dinosaurs too. We've been away for a few days and it was lovely to come back to a treat like this. smile

Thank you so much for the lovely 'A First Book of Nature'. I know it will bring my grandchildren and me lots of pleasure.

Thank you for my copy of Dylan's Amazing Dinosaurs, my 4 grandsons love it and I'm now under pressure to by the others in the series when they appear so that they have one each! A lovely book to share

Loved 'A First Book of Nature' so thank you so much for sending me a copy. I was lucky enough to see Mark Hearld's work at Yorkshire Sculpture Park some time ago and really appreciated seeing his spontaneous and lively work at close quarters. It comes over well in this book which I am sure my grand daughter will enjoy looking at with me for a long time to come.

Just to let you know that I received my prize today. Cant wait for this rain to stop so that I can put my picnic set to good use :D

cazthebookworm Mon 09-Jun-14 09:55:34

I have received my gorgeous red LG phone, thank you, my friends are very envious. I now have to find out how to transfer all my data across to it, quite a challenge, but worth it.

Thanks Gransnet for Dylans Amazing Dinosaurs. I've posted it off to my grandson in exchange for the lovely painting he sent me entitled "Granny, wearing her coat". He told my daughter that "Granny has cold bones and that's why she wears a coat." Cute! grin

Thanks Gransnet for my book 'The Time of Their Lives' by Maeve Haran. It was lovely to be one of the Gransnetters to have my thoughts printed in the book. The reflections of Gransnetters are printed on the inside of the back and front covers.
Thanks again.

and for mine too - thank you! flowers

I have just received my "Top Trumps* game from the Dogs Trust.
Thank You GN, cupcake

Maggiemaybe Tue 10-Jun-14 18:54:30

There was a full page article in the Guardian on Saturday about Maeve Haran, and I have taken to waving it under the nose of anybody who'll stand still long enough because it mentions The Time of Their Lives, which I like to call "my book" (sorry, Maeve and other chosen Gransnetters). Now that I've received my copy and find I've two whole quotes in it, I'm rendered helpless with excitement. But go on then, I'll share - thank you, Gransnet, Maeve and publishers for "our book". flowers It's a good advert for GN and let's hope it's a bestseller!

arranmum Fri 13-Jun-14 22:22:12

Thank you so much! I'm looking forward to spending it, just got to decide what to treat myself to! It's definitely got to be a treat, well maybe something sensible as well as!! xx

annodomini Fri 13-Jun-14 22:54:58

Just to let you know: a few weeks ago, I won a copy of Love, Lies and Lemon Pie. My 11-year-old GD loves it and has started working through the recipes. So Thanks Gransnet from a very happy 11-year-old.

In April I won £200 worth of garden vouchers, and thought you might like to know that I am gradually spending them, didn't want to fritter them away. So far I have bought a new electric drill from Homebase, to replace my cordless which was not man enough for masonry, replaced frost damaged pots, and chosen lots of plants. DD found an old tin bath behind the shed in her newly rented house, which we have planted up with herbs - looks great! I still have £60 left which will buy some roses to go against a newish fence. It has been great not to have to count the pennies! Thanks again! flowers

Just received my copy of The Gallery of Vanished Husbands. Thank you, I look forward to reading it.

Grannie48 Mon 16-Jun-14 20:32:07

Thank you for my copy of Top Bananas! I am really pleased with it and there some lovely recipes which I will be trying soon.

Crow Mon 16-Jun-14 21:08:29

I received my copy of The Gallery of Vanished Husbands on Saturday, thank you very much. I have a very long plane journey coming up so am saving it for that as it looks very interesting.
