Grannies

now Michael i do hope that was said tongue in cheek? i manage to mix a bit of Oxfam AND high fashion...and i'm told i rock..for a nanna..

Michael do try to be original if you're going to make a short post. In fact, try to say something interesting if you're going to make a long post . Btw should grannies be cute and why? Discuss.

Oh dear Michael.
Oxfam shops are jolly useful, they serve a great purpose and raise money. Can the same be said for you?

Absent.....too true, I'd hate to thought cute. Seductive and damned hot would be much better!

I don't like"cute", it feels patronising.I,m Oxfam mixed with chic and individuality, that's how i like to see myself anyway!

Who is being criticised here - Grannies? Oxfam? How sweeping and disparaging at the same time. How patronising is the "cute" reference. Are you a DS/SIL/or GS Michael? Just so that I know which stereotype to apply to you.

OOO-er, Michael! Are you trying to say that we're very highly thought-of (as Oxfam is)?

....and giving, charitable and caring. Thank you Michael.

Cute on tv?

What, like Dot Cotton?!

(although I do like her)

Here's a cute one. www.marieclaire.com/celebrity-lifestyle/celebrities/tv-grandmas

Oh blow! That didn't come up with the one I wanted. Should have been the Bart Simpson one.

jingle Weren't they great?

The Bart Simpson one is best Golden

Oh I say ! Cute is not a word I have heard used to describe grannies. I have been called a few names and I am pleased to say some quite flattering ones.

scroll along

I wouldn't mind being cute.

Are you married to a Grannie Michael ??

Michael is a grandad poster.

And we know what grandads are like.

And he seems to have wandered off somewhere......?

doesn't Michael live in the 'potting shed'

I feel like gagging, who the hell wants to be called 'cute'. Like Dolly Parton perchance.
Anyway Michael, what do you wear. All the Grandads I have met, wear the most boring old clothes. Grey trousers, perhaps a check shirt, please don't say a blazer, thats a dead cert you are over 70, a peculiar cap, fuddy duddy old shoes. Probably a tie as well, in a nice muted colour of sludge. Anorak to top it up with, oh I could go on and on. I know what they wear, as I am married to a fuddy duddy Grandad, except for the tie and blazer.

Hmm, must be the weekend
How sad is Michael that he gets his kicks trying to stir things up on Gransnet?

No ...not a GD ...much more likely to be a SiL ...who has successfully managed to rattle a few cages tonight

Come on girls ...ignore him ...you know how little boys hate that!!

Michael has posted before, asking about cooking.
