How many lurkers have we got?

It would be interesting to know how many members we have now.

All I keep getting is this Forum. Where is the Census and how do I find it?

My opinion of Gransnet for the survey was "Complacent and very middle class" - looking at the above comments I rest my case.

Ana Fri 05-Oct-12 12:54:08

Ooer! hmm

soop Fri 05-Oct-12 12:55:09

Oh dear me...hmm

harrigran Fri 05-Oct-12 13:22:47

PatriciaC hmm

soop Fri 05-Oct-12 13:27:15

PatriciaC Your comment baffles me. Please enlighten us. confused

NfkDumpling Fri 05-Oct-12 14:18:54

Middle class?! Me! Wow! (Still like to win the F & M hamper!)

jeni Fri 05-Oct-12 14:44:13

I suppose I am middle class but my grandparents were working class and proud of it!
I'm proud of the efforts they made to ensure my parents were well educated and the opportunities I've had. I'm not going to knock it and don't see why I should be ashamed of it!

Mamie Fri 05-Oct-12 15:41:29

I did as I was told and skipped questions for abroad, but we can vote and I do pay for the Guardian iPad app, so we could answer these.

jeni Fri 05-Oct-12 15:50:18

Does anyone know when this ends?

PatriciaC Fri 05-Oct-12 15:58:08

Well Jeni - what's to be proud of, none of it seems to have been any effort on your part!

jeni Fri 05-Oct-12 16:01:47

Not true. I worked very hard for my present status.

jeni Fri 05-Oct-12 16:05:58

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?

soop Fri 05-Oct-12 16:07:40

PatriciaC Do you have a wee chip on shoulder? confused

Ella46 Fri 05-Oct-12 16:33:09

Oooh middle class ...I've been promoted! wink

I think it must be a bag of chips with plenty of vinegar!
