Good idea.

GNHQ have commented on this thread. Read here.
So as many of you will know, following on from the whole selfie phenomenon, Galen volunteered to do her own pose to raise money (and awareness) for research into cancer. (You can find the original thread HERE
That got us thinking, and in consultation with Galen we have come up with the idea of doing our very own Calendar Girls style calendar. To raise money (and we are happy for people to decide which charity). To raise awareness (ditto). And also to turn on its head the idea that older people (and one person we spoke to who is working to get "older" people online is targetting those above 45...) cannot be internet savvy and up to speed with the latest technology.
So - classic poses with any bits that need hiding (
) hidden not with the obvious cakes and flowers but with smart phones, lap tops, tablets, e readers etc.
Galen has laid claim to the Rokeby Venus with a Mac Air instead of a mirror. Now all we need is 11 other gransnetters to volunteer too (groups welcome!)
There will be nothing on show that you don't want on show. Logistics are being logisticised (is that a word?!) so do pick a pose and join the fun...
Hi kittylester and Dragonfly1
So pleased you like the idea. I've actually moved the conversation over to a thread to make it easier to find.
Thanks for commenting so swiftly!

Morning Gigi
I think that's a brilliant idea! Especially the bit about keeping your clothes on! 
The idea of a teeshirt would be great but sadly Race for Life would be difficult - one leg could run (a bit) but the other would fail miserably 
.
I should have added that the Race for Life distance is only 5km and you can run, walk or dance round it. The one I will do is literally a walk in the park.
Hi, Galen.
I'll point the rest of the team in the direction of your thread, so someone will get back to you as soon as they can.
I thought your tea towels were fab by the way
I'm with Biker.
What about Wrinkly Riding (horse riding that is), Senile Sailing (I could do that), Doddery Dog Walking (several assorted dogs + Zimmer frame), Aged Archery, Pensioner Potholing, Batty Biking .........!
Couch Potato outfit, phoenix - it's the only thing I'm any good at! 
I'll put my potato suit on...
ok, so let's see if I'vr got this right.................I don't need to shave my legs?
