Glad to see the back of you

'hear' of course

A big thanks from me too absent it was good to meet u and other virtual friends. Had a busy day in York & had to buy new charger for my phone which is why I am so late in thanking everyone for a day of good company and many laughs!

Have taken the pics down from Facebook as it appears there are privacy issues as someone had been tagged with gransnet user name and real name.

If you are in any of the pics on the gransnet forum here

local.gransnet.com/forums/local_north_yorkshire_share_your_pics/1198041-Gransnet-meet-up

and you want it removed, send me a private message with details and I will remove it.

If you would like your pic on Gransnet facebook please also let me know ..

Can't you untag them?

I have copied them to the Edinburgh Facebook page, Jen I had labelled them (just usernames) in the comments but have edited that out now.

Couldn't see any tags ....

Happy to share the pics and be tagged.

Happy for the pics to be shared on Facebook. Prefer not to be tagged.

Same for me..prefer no tag!

It was I who had the privacy issues. I've no objection to photographs being shared on Facebook but not tagged with my GNet user name. I would not be happy if my work colleagues were to see some of my posts on here, it could compromise my position. I often think of GNet as being a safe haven in times of need, I'm sure most of you will understand that.

Good point baubles not a good idea to put anyone's name on facebook, if we wanted to be recognised we would use our real names on Gransnet.

I agree with baubles as well, although I'm not involved. If photos are put on FB, with GN usernames, then anyone who recognised a member could link them to their username and track their posts on Gransnet, if they were so inclined.

Ditto Ana

The photos I took are off facebook, I was maybe over enthusiastic sharing them, ...at any future meet-ups I will ask everyone there if they want to be in photos which would be shared on Gransnet N Yorks facebook page. Many people do have serious reasons to not be in the public view on facebook and that should be respected.

Thank you for doing that, YaYaJen. As baubles commented, GN can be looked on as a safe haven for us. No tags for me either, but photos are ok.

yaya personally its ok with me, but I can see that for some it can be distressing and innappropriate in work situations. I use my user name on Twitter and only ever post what I could say to someones face, but I am not in the position other GNetters are, and need to protect their anonoymity,
