Gransnet cafe

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.🤣

Hi to our new posters.
Have you read the Good Morning thread? It’s started daily by Mick and it’s a good place to learn about the lives, interests and goings-on of some of us.
Maybe post something yourselves too?

Hi Truffle43, I’m a relative newbie too - I’ve not long retired and learning new hobbies, including sewing (I have a two-day beginner’s course on 9/10 March which I’m looking forward to, with my new machine - almost feels like my first day at school!) . I have one grandchild, a beautiful little girl of 3 months, who is suffering from her first cold at the moment, bless her.

Hi Truffle

Sadly I am useless at sewing and making things. It's skill I wish I possessed! Hope you enjoy Gransnet as much as I do.
