I am beginning to think I am not the tender little sensitive flower I had always imagined myself to be - you know the sort, would feel a pea through twenty mattresses - as nothing I have read on here would make me leave, apart from sheer boredom!

definition of a coven : (not specifically re witches)
A clique that shares common interests or activities.
seems to sum it up
apologies - slid down the hill to check I was not being offensive.

But the coven thing is probably not quite as offensive.

Yes, just as it's silly to liken someone to an online troublemaker.

It's silly to call anything on here a "coven" though.

Not that sort of coven, phoenix.

I know exactly what grannyonce means. Hope she will BBS.

I have been here since day 1, I don't think I've ever been part of a "coven" in fact I wasn't aware that there was one!

Am I missing out? If there is one, why haven't I been invited to join it?

It's because of my cellulite, isn't it? Go on, you have been put off because of the thought of my wobbling thighs and buttocks as I dance naked around the flaming bonfire of knitting patterns, showing chaps with pipes, gazing into the middle distance whilst wearing a zip up cardy!

(that means 'be back soon')

Love Herefordshire.

BBS

I do actually live on a hill and can see for miles. Yes it is green - but then Herefordshire is - and yes there are cows much nicer place to be.
I am leaving the forum for a while - the threads and the usual suspects are so tedious - why I would like an 'ignore poster' option.

Now I really need to know what your hill is like? Is it green and grassy? Are there cows?

But..... you haven't actually left have you? And I hope you don't. Stay, and slug it out on the threads.

no jingl it is not to show how 'wounded and upset' they are that people leave.
if you have been called pathetic, a troll and immature by the 'my way or noway' coven for a throw away remark that punctured their endless BS and posturing (as if anyone would listen to a lot of lefty grannies) you would leave to.
besides which it is getting so boring that I struggle to find anything worth reading let alone commenting on
back to my hill which is far more pleasant

I don't believe many people do actually leave. Just get a bit bored and stop posting. Or else they want to show how "wounded and upset" they are () I'll bet they still read it every so often.

It does get a bit samey merlot

mgran in my case - 'bullying' and personal remarks

Why do people keep leaving?

I opt to watch any threads that I am anxious to follow, makes life easier.

but we don't know if we are interested in (but not on) a thread without looking at active or searching the forums.
Oh and can we have an 'ignore' button? it would be so helpful
heading for my hill too.

fine, thanks!

hi grannyknot
how are you xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Good points.

I have just had a look at Last Day[thanks Cari, not really pressed that button before], and it has 87 discussions.
It also includes the Gransnet Local Boards which is nice.

soon you'd have to peruse say 100, to see whether they interest you or not, rather than 50.

I've been off GN forums, literally and figuratively and having come back briefly will now head for the hills again! (Can't promise I won't enter competitions though

If you look at I'm on rather than active, you miss out the threads you are not interested in. You still get 50, but only the ones of interest to you.
