The mind boggles!


Glad you had a good time despite your discomfort Sylvs. I must admit that shoe comfort is incredibly important as one gets......er...um.....older. I use to love court shoes with heels but give me a good flattie now and I'm happy - especially whilst shopping.


I do have more stylish shoes for special occasions but prefer my comfortable ones.

aaaawwwwwwww Gins



but I know what you mean!


Fred is going stronger than some of the other threads, you know?! Some of the other long-time threads I look on, often go 2 or more days before any of the regulars post ........... and they used to post every day, for eyars and years.

I don't think GR realises what a mess they've got themselves into.



My membership doesn't run out until June next year.


One option may be to consider FTM ..... a free site, started by disaffected GR members back in 2007, but much better run .... and it has Chat threads that are much less antagonisitc than on here :))

Grand daughter had a sleepover last night.She woke up at 5am and just managed to get her snug and settled when the doorbell rang at 10 to 6.Daughter and her boyfriend had been travelling across London from Wembley on Night buses and had forgotten their keys.

If you enjoy our company Gins..........you'd stay!

Most of us are on Fred everyday y'know. It goes a bit quiet now and again but that's because we're busy. We always come home though don't we??






I'm hoping it picks up too LK. I'm ever the optimist...... :-D



:-D



Off to bed now..........see you in the morning............~~~~~~~~~ I hope

I too keep hoping it will improve.


Maybe we should wait to see if Phil's changes really mean anything.


He did say "may take a couple of weeks". :-)



and, as Cyn says, most of us are here on Fred every day.



Plus ....... it will be more expensive to renew if you let your current membership lapse.



Having said all that ................ I know exactly where you are coming from, as I find myself more and more frustrated, and, yes, bored with the current incarnation of GR and the lack of activity.

Poor you, LK!


I won't be able to join you




...... but could you mention that you have several contacts on GR who are unable to attend the event, including people from overseas, long-time members, and they are very dissatisfied with the current state of affairs..????

Sorry have not been on for awhile, haven't been feeling the best, and we had a wedding on Friday, a Christmas party on Saturday and visitors on Sunday..pretty full on,

Not to worry, back on deck today :-)

Hi Grace
xxx


Hope you are feeling better


That was a lot to have happening so soon after your op!

No wonder you have been tired and not feeling the best.


Take care of yourself, now! :-D



Hope the wedding went well, and the littley enjoyed her big day!

Thanks Sylvia,

Gracie was very good at the wedding, she was a bit grumpy and hungry and tored as it was a very long day - she had to be at the bride's at 2 to get ready, and then the poor thing didn't get to eat or drink again until about 5.30 (she had been up since 7.30) but on teh whole she was pretty goodd and she looked very nice (if I do say so!).

Am waiting for a nice picture of her to change my profile pic on the other site and here.

Yes you are right I have been doing to much. Started back at work today and was ok but am a bit sore I just can't get comfortable. Getting irritated with myself!

SylviaInCanada

SylviaInCanada Report 5 Dec 2011 00:45

watch it, Grace!!


I still have to watch it, over 8 weeks later.


I keep telling OH that I won't know what I can't do unless I try it ................... and then have to minimise the discomfort! :-D
