All my expat forums give the number of members, and the number of members on-line, at the foot of the page. I would find that interesting.

Hey Geraldine!
You didn't answer my question. Will you publish the results?

glassortwo, we have many, many thousands of members, and we get many, many hundreds of thousands of page views a month. But it's not enough! Tell your friends.

J04 don't know the latest on how many have filled it in - waiting for an update from the Insight team - but it's not enough either! If you haven't done it yet, everyone, please do.

It's important because it helps us to respond better to requests and to work out what would make good competition prizes and gives us a sense of what issues gransnetters care about. It should help us to survive and prosper and be more useful - and if we repeat it in a couple of years, it should give us a sense of how Gransnet has grown and what has changed in women's lives - which again, will help us to be more helpful and (let's get our priorities straight here) fun. wine

Now isn't there a special word for people who go on to forums and post just to stir things up? Bored? No, that's not it.............

PatriciaC, what is wrong with middle class and how can you say complacent, what do you know about everyone else or are you writing from experience ?

Mamie, I think we skip these questions if we live abroad, not the other way round.

Certainly not Soop - a person doesn't have to have a chip on their shoulder to express an opinion - I just like to stir things up occasionallyand it would appear I have been successful. LOL.

Anyway, I said I was proud of THEIR efforts. I did not say I was proud. I only said I was not ashamed. And in any case, why should I be ashamed?
What is wrong with middle class in your eyes?
