'Ere we go, 'ere we go 'ere we go shock

Hope GNHQ have lots of brewbrew and cupcakecupcake at the ready, looks like they'll be busy!

Good luck, chaps!

It is amusing that the young seem to assume that grandmothers have never seen such a thing and will faint clean away at the mere thought. How on earth do they imagine that previous generations got themselves born? Were they all left by the fairies under gooseberry bushes?

It was nice to start the day by laughing!

Don't think I missed much then!

nina you're right, it would be great to have something like that in place - I'll pass a note on to our lovely tech department smile

Lucy it wasn't a complaint, just thinking that when you register for forums they can instantly tell you 'sorry that name is in use' I wrongly assumed that it would flag an unsuitable user name too, obviously not. smile

Me too!

Minder Tue 16-Feb-16 12:17:04

Me too Mini.

I didn't miss it. I was musing on whether, if you drew a little face on it, it would have looked like ET! We could have sent it home!

starlily106 Tue 16-Feb-16 11:42:10

i missed it too!

Anya Tue 16-Feb-16 11:24:03

Sorry to missed it NonnaAnnie just some little prick experimenting with a selfie! Luckily he didn't need a wide-angled lens wink

nina unfortunately we can't monitor all of the new usernames that are registered - there are far too many - so we don't know anything's amiss until we get reports from all of you. Luckily you always manage to alert us to anything untoward pretty sharpish grin

NonnaAnnie Tue 16-Feb-16 11:19:05

I'm lost, what's the problem?

MiniMouse Tue 16-Feb-16 11:10:27

Oh, I've missed all the fun again, as usual sad Still, there's plenty of half term time left!

ninathenana Tue 16-Feb-16 11:09:17

As I commented on the thread how did his username slip through the net hmm

Oh heck, just realised this is a thread about a thread !!!!

Elegran Tue 16-Feb-16 10:34:14

Didn't see it - that would have been a chance to say pityingly "Is that the best you can do? Never mind, you'll grow up soon"

Lona Tue 16-Feb-16 10:22:03

His granny would be so proud! hmm

kittylester Tue 16-Feb-16 10:08:31

I keep wanting to say he's a silly billy but i think I mean a silly willy! grin

kittylester Tue 16-Feb-16 10:04:49

Well, I've never seen anything quite like that! blush

Marelli Tue 16-Feb-16 10:03:53

He should have posted himself into soops kitchen 'extension'!! grin

ninathenana Tue 16-Feb-16 10:01:45

I thought the whole thing amusing too annsixty it's not as if we've made it to our age without seeing similar.

Marelli Tue 16-Feb-16 10:00:18

The wee so-and-so had the nerve to pm me when I reported his post.....blocked him, of course.

Alea Tue 16-Feb-16 09:59:57

grin
However, as I posted in the Kitchen, a reminder of how public (note the "l" in that word blush ) seriously, open our site is. Members might like to bear that in mind when posting pics of DGC etc.
Sadly we need to be aware there are some w***ers out there, and out there is where I would like them to stay.

annsixty Tue 16-Feb-16 09:41:50

Fun while it lasted!!

Marmight Tue 16-Feb-16 09:41:29

LucyGransnet (GNHQ) Tue 16-Feb-16 09:27:26

Well....you don't see that type of new member every day! Unfortunately we've had to send him on his way and as a result his ego's rather wilted grin
