As its less than 3 weeks until the 1st Anniversary of Gransnet 5th May ( I hope thats the correct date, if my memory has not failed me altogether) smile
How are we going to celebrate?

Do we need to start making bunting or baking, any suggestions?????

I'm going to recite Albert and the Lion. I have my stick with the horse's head handle (which I may have stolen borrowed from my daughter) at the ready

And if it gets very rowdy I may throw in a chorus of Mud Glorious Mud

I'm 'enery the eighth I am...the boy I love is up in the gallery...wiv a ladder and some glasses you can see to 'ackney marshes....(This is easier now it's full of Olympic stadia of course)....you can tell I come from the East End.

Anyway, we at GNHQ think a party is a great idea. We will be having a big slab modest portion of cake ourselves. Let us know what we can provide for the revels - champagne, limousines, my repertoire of music hall songs, delivered completely out of tune - and which international street we need to send them to.

We are rather excited to have made it this far ourselves, and even more excited at the amazingly interesting and funny and lovely community of gransnetters who have made it all possible.

I can dance on roller skates but I will need a partner.
I think I have posted around 200 jokes since I joined but I won't be telling any - I can never remember the punch line!

CariGransnet (GNHQ) Tue 17-Apr-12 16:23:55

nanachrissy - and me a northerner (hangs head in shame). And, um, lots so far but we will do some totting up. Have been rather distracted trying to bake lemon drizzle bunting

MaggieP Tue 17-Apr-12 17:45:54

Can we do a sing a long as we did with the Christmas Carol? That was fun especially being able to see other GNetters!
Something we are all familiar with....? wink

I think we should sing the official Gransnet Anthem:

"You cannae shove yer granny aff a bus
Oh ye cannae shove yer granny aff a bus
Oh ye cannae shove yer granny, for she's yer Mammy's Mammy
Ye cannae shove yer granny aff a bus"
(Verse 2 available on request.)
