Only one Tech assigned to gransnet, perhaps. Mumsnet have got a biscuit.

I don't see why we can't import our own emoticons - they let us put links up.

I think tech is someone's husband!

I seem to remember there's only one Tech. B - or that was the 'snowflake' excuse, anyway......

Mind you, we have been told that he/she/it was very busy. I guess we just have to lump it.

But we can keep trying smile

Butternut Sun 20-May-12 16:06:46

...and I haven't given up on the Snowflake one, either. Just waiting..........!wink

I guess it depends on Tech's priorities. Maybe there are lots of more urgent things for Tech to do. Or maybe there aren't enough Techs. You'd think we could be told though. It would be appreciated.

Yes Butternut ...you were more successful than me ...in a previous life I asked for a 'can't stop laughing' one ...without success!!

Butternut Sun 20-May-12 15:58:52

Anagram - Are you eluding to me? grin re. the snowflake!
Wooden spoon for you...............although I WAS successful with the sunshine!

Anagram Sun 20-May-12 14:38:13

Or carry them on under the Links paragraph....

Jacey Sun 20-May-12 14:12:15

Yes ...but she certainly wouldn't be the only one grin ...and she'd only get it "in good fun " grin

Yes ...have never understood GNHQ's comment about 'not enough room' ...just make a third column!! wink

My friend and I where always the winner's of "The Wooden Spoon" at the local pub quiz it was presented to the team who came last in the quiz sad

jeni Sun 20-May-12 14:09:32

Of coursegrin jing should have a giant one grin

Bags Sun 20-May-12 14:02:18

Oh wait!

For stirrers?

Bags Sun 20-May-12 14:01:50

What's a wooden spoon emoticon for, jacey? somebody else will be as baffled as I am so I'm asking for them as well. smile

Anagram Sun 20-May-12 13:59:09

I agree with all those ideas, Jacey, but for some reason additional emoticons very rarely materialise. (Snowflake emoticon, anyone...grin).

Jacey Sun 20-May-12 13:47:50

I know Bags is after a crescent moon for the Quiet corner/nite, nite thingy!

Which would be good smile

But what about the Union flag ...for Queen's Jubilee ... Olympics...-Para-Olympics??? I know some GNetters are not going to follow these events, buts lots of us will be!! [pride] emoticion

Then I think we ought to have a 'wooden spoon' emoticion ...I think some of us would get a lot od use out of this one!! grin

What does anyone else think??
