WOOT - Here it is, our very own shed ( Thanks GSHQ), real posh one too, no more old doors etc. it may be small on the outside but, inside, WOW, it's a tardis, plenty of room for everyone.
However it's a bit bare atm, contributions to make it homely greatly appreciated. BUT remember it's Granddads' shed, no chintz please.

Hope to see you all from time to time.

Pompa would like to thank everyone for their good wishes - which he appreciates very much - and says he will be back when the things that are troubling him have sorted themselves out.

Pompa...you are very dear to us smile

One of my dearest male friends won't join Gransnet because the name is "sexist". So perhaps there should be a Popsnet, or something similar.

But, I am pleased to say, DH is a member. But it'll take you ages to work out who he is! smile
