Same old, same old…

Encouraging to see that you’ve taken all the suggestions on board Annie (not!) 🙄

GNHQ must be on an extended Christmas break 🎄🎄🎄

Annie are you there?

Or anyone ... there must be someone. Tell you what I'll do a redesign with some help from all the people on this thread 🤔

I'll help. What do you want me to do?

Absolutely pouring here, set to last for the next 24 hours, high winds too so a glimpse of some sunshine is welcome.

Conflict Islands toscalily fabulous place.

Well we did manage to get the swimming picture changed to a rehash of 60th birthday celebrations.

nanna8 Wish I was there.

Perhaps they are here ?

Thought this would have disappeared by now. Anyone there?

An edit facility to correct spelling mistakes, etc., like they have on the Wine Society Community website.

Thank you @Callistemon21 and @loopyoo

SeniorSpace?

Or go to: I'm On

I'm here! With a suggestion, or 3!

It would be great if you could thank certain posts, and edit when you have made a mistake. Also, be given the choice whether you want to watch a thread after posting.

Anyone there?

How long before last post disappears.

Posts disappearing again, I just said fix the current problems before talking about updating

Let’s get the problems fixed before we talk about changes, I can’t post.

We could all report this thread!

I remember the young man at GNHQ, who used to post with tech updates. He always was always so pleasant and put up with the banter. I can't for the life of me recall his name.

There was also the time when my eye brow tinting went wrong and I started a thread about it. GNHQ joined in with the fun.
Changed days indeed!

You’re right Maggiemaybe, the GN of old (and really, not going that far back, but certainly pre covid and possibly pre Brexit), seemed much friendlier, with more general chit chat input fro GNHQ staff, along with competitions, books to apply for & review if you got one - then the follow up chat with the author.
I posted under a different moniker back then, but can assure you I was there.
I know things evolve and change, that’s normal, but not everything is necessarily better.

Now if that doesn’t lure them back, nothing will!

It’s a waste of everyone’s time, isn’t it? And the same happens every year.

The thread’s made me nostalgic for the Gransnet of old. The one with regular competitions, books to apply for every month, jolly GNHQ input and some very witty (and now late lamented) members. I was so pleased to have found it back in 2012, but I can’t see much here now to tempt new people to join, or to stay.

Perhaps it’s a sign of the times - like everywhere, no money, staff shortages - or perhaps it’s just me.

No, it's not just you Maggiemaybe

Come back Cari, Geraldine, Josi .......

We have 🎂 and ☕ and even 🍷
