Two of us gransnetters have met up in Leeds but it is a bit too much of a journey for each of us.

We have decided to create a Skype or zoom call and want to invite anyone else who would like to join in.

We two are interested in forming a travel group as we don’t like holidaying alone. I am retired and a widow and my co-netter has retired but her husband is still working.

If you would like to join in with us, message me and we can try to get the group going.

Looking forward to some happy travels.

No Elegan i wasn’t the one suggesting there were cliques on here that came from one of the original posters and I added the comment as it seemed a bit of a strange comment from someone who then suggested former a smaller group 🙃 i ve never seen or been part of a clique on this site. Just because some people have similar thoughts or make similar posts doesn’t make a clique

I also remember that awful situation re the job interview so spiteful and mean

Our group didn't begin online. We went online during COVID. We were acquaintances to begin with I'd say but became friends as the weeks on Zoom went on.

You made acquaintances here, chatted a little (or a lot) and got to know each other.
Well enough to decide to meet?

You met, became friends, and then chatted online during covid since you couldn't meet up at that point?

The point is, at some time, groups of friends were no more than acquaintances who liked the sound of each other.

Husbands at one time were just people you'd seen around or met once, or even spotted from afar.

Otherwise, we would all exist in a vacuum, permanently.

Just to let folks know it was me, not Nashville, who put our names by mistake. Not meaning to cause a kerfuffle or set a new trend. But let’s talk by zoom antsy! 😊
