Dear GNHQ. Could you please read this very carefully as it is a bit complicated. It's about a poster with the monica of "whatanuisancea bc123" or something like that. Here is the case for your consider

ation.

A few days ago, there was a thread. I can't remember which one it was, or exactly when it was. Sorry.

Anyway, *Whata (as title) happened to remark, in reply to another poster, that she rather wished she hadn't chosen that name. She felt it did her no justice. Others simply felt it was too long to type.

What I would like to put to you for your consideration is whether or not you might be able to relax your no-name-changing rule, just this once, (well, apart from a few others that have jumped on the bandwagon decided they don't like their monicas either hmm) and allow her to change her name to WOT. We had a thread where posters (there was a huge interest in this confused) put up suggestions. This one - WOT - is the name she has chosen.

Your attention, and reply, after an appropriate length of time and consideration, would be greatly appreciated.

Mwah!

A few Gransnetters have quite enjoyed this. Sorry if it as a pain in the backside to you.

Gransnet without the GNrs might not be hugely successful.

Thanks, jings! At least you help people. If one can't have a larf then what's the point?

I've got the January blues.

Leave me alone.

Not about the Jan blues though!

You could borrow my light box [doesn't do the trick though] Treat yourself to ANYTHING! That's the way to go.

jinglbellsfrocks Mon 04-Jan-16 16:19:33

I have treated myself to quite enough I think. Two mince pies, two pieces Xmas cake and the remains of a trifle.

They were taking the Xmas market/fair away. sad I only went once, but still. The lights were nice. Sigh.
