I have just read the Gransnet article in the Fred Olsen Closer magazine in which Geraldine Bedell talks about Gransnet. It's an excellent article and well worth reading. It puts over the ethos and philosophy of Gransnet very well and I hope it will generate lots of new members.

Thanks, Brendawymms! I remember doing the interview but I haven't seen the piece. Is there a link?

I tried and tried to get a link up yesterday. I was able to read the article - the mag can be read online - but it wouldn' t load as a link. Think it could be a poor quality website. I am not on my own 'puter at the moment. Will try when I get home if no one else manages it.

Good piece.

Can't get it to work. Just comes up with cruise brochures!

That'r right, Galen. Click on the brochure with the toucan on the front, then skip the pages to find Gransnet in the contents, which you can click on.

The one with the toucan doesn't come up for me. 100,000 of us and no doubt rising. Well done GN.

No brochure with a toucan for me either hmm

Just checked - the page with the toucan on a magazine has stopped coming up. Wonder what happened? Tried search and that didn't work. It might appear if we knew which edition it was.

Perhaps they're hoping to sell 100,000 copies wink

It won't work!

It's a really crap website.

You are suprised about the website I am not !!!

They've taken it off there! It was Closer Magazine Summer 2013. The spring one is there now but the summer one has gone!
