Hi Sue

I think I've just worked out who you are! Welcome back!

You left us to get involved in a local project I think and, from what I read in the local papers, you did a good job. flowers

Welcome back Sue nice to see you I'm nowhere near you as I'm on The Wirral but that makes no difference does it as we are all close by when it comes to Gransnet.flowers

Hi Everyone

I have just joined Gransnet - at the moment I am on holiday in a town called Issoire in The Auvergne but I live for most of the year in Northern Cyprus - apart from half July, all of August and Christmas and New Year visiting family in England..
Gransnet sounds great as reading some of the threads - we all seem to have so much in common.

Will someone please explain the new emoticons up there ^ and tell me why they aren't showing on the list at the bottom! confused

penguinpaperback Fri 22-Aug-14 11:20:56

Might they be emoticons used from your own iPad, tablet, PC so not the Gransnet official ones? Not recognised by the site they just appear as squares? I could be wrong here. grin

�� oh yes that's it...just done an experiment here, ��

Anne58 Fri 22-Aug-14 11:45:23

Thank you PPB at least that explains why I haven't got them! smile

Welcome back Sue, (although I didn't know you left). I haven't been here long myself. Hi there joanie I hope you are enjoying chatting to the Gnetters as much as me. They are a lovely lot and very wise. I am looking forward to the next NE meetup, I've never experienced one before. I'd love to put faces to nicknames.smile
