Welcome to the *Gransnet Café. This is a non-judgemental space for you to pop in for a cuppa with some virtual friends, seek out advice for a particular problem, or share an update on your life - important or trivial. Feel free to have your say and chat about your day, but please leave any arguments at the door. If you're struggling to find someone to talk to in real life, or are simply looking for a bit of a chat, this is the place for you.

Hello Newbie here. Looking forward to chatting and joining in the topics

I have joined tonight and would like to say hello to you all. I am a grandmother of 4 and adore the little people. I am happy to look at and join in with a lot of chats. I love to sew and make things and am looking forward to future chats.

Good morning.That's exactly how I started sewing, I have never looked back and enjoy it so much. Beware you may become addicted to fabric.🤣

I had absolutely no idea that Gransnet Café was the place to come to introduce yourself as a newbie! So well done, new members, for finding it.
I looked back and found a newbies welcome thread by Gransnet dating from 2018 through to 2022 which I must have missed when I joined 4 years ago.
Anyway, nice to see some new names, chatting away is interesting and fun. It runs away with you sometimes.

There was a 'Hello' thread from the very early days.

Not sure what happened to it.

Hi Everyone,

I am joining Gransnet to meet like minded people. I am 65 years old and have been living in Tenerife for the last 15 years of my life.
I am married to John who is 75 years old.
I have 4 Grandchildren who all live in the UK so visits are very rare unfortunately.
I have lot's of interests including swimming, walking, meeting friends and dining out when John's health permits.
Looking forward to chatting.

Hi Salz - welcome.
I hope John isn’t your husband’s real name. There’s a slight risk of being identified, so try to avoid real names .

Salz

You can ask for your post to be taken down and post it again without names, but editing still doesn’t happen once you’ve posted.
Just refer to him as my other half , or husband or DH ( dear husband) from now on.
Welcome anyway.
