Hi Grannypie

 

Welcome to our friendly forum, please come and say hello, we don't bite! Well not much anyway.

 

You will find a real nice welcome from the friendlies football forum on the internet.

 

 

Thanks for the Welcome,Tony.I'm kept busy keeping Super_ram in his   place

Well in that case you have my profound and sincere sympathy.

I get the feeling that I'm being ganged up on. I may regret persuading Granny to join this site

I really don't like the username Mum, I don't mind changing Super Ram's to 'Grumpy Grandad' but GrannyPie just doesn't suite you.

Now this is a surprise, it will be interesting regardless of nicks. We can make sure Super Ram knows his place here too, whaha haha Welcome to the community!
ps. Who's idea was the username?

It was my idea and I like it-If you can think of a better one I may consider changing but I am the kids Granny.

When we had grandchildren my wife insisted that she be called Granny, she didn't want to be a grandma or a nanny or nannar, she thought Granny was more with it this day and age.

 

Our kids always called their grandmother's grandma (surname) to differentiate between the two grandma's.

 

I considered being a grandpops or grandpa but that sounded too American, so Grandad I am.

Welcome aboard Mrs Super_Ram, I look forward to reading your posts Choose your words carefully from here on Super_Ram

Thanks for your warm welcome WeymouthPIE, I always look forward to reading your posts.

hello mrs super ram, welcome to pon.

  liampie     oh dear, poor super ram. seems like a family reunion here, not that its a bad thing!

 

Yes,  Liam,  I'm having to develop a thicker skin but I like to think that this community is one big,happy(except when we lose) family regardless of family ties or team we support.

I've just realised I spelt "welcome" wrong in the thread header, to think I used to be in the printing trade.

 

My old boss will be turning in his grave.

Even Clever clogs Super_ram didn't notice.Don't worry , Tony we all make mistakes.

yes super ram, one big family here. glad i joined

I'm glad you joined too, Liam, your posts are always most welcome and your opinions very much appreciated.

I think I'm right in saying that you once worked for 'The Derbyshire Times'(I think you mentioned it in an old post-and in spite of what certain persons say,I do have a fairly good memory)Did you know of anyone by the name of Tommy?I only ask because my cousin's son works there-He used to be a Man U fan(my cousin supports the unmentionables) Just wondered.

I didn't notice either, no real problem.

Hi Super

 

Oh dear, it seems I am in danger of blowing my cover and revealing my true identity.

Yes I did work with Tommy he was in my team a great lad his second name begins with B, he is a big Man Utd fan although he never went to see them

He doesn't work there anymore he went at roughly the same time as me when they shut the department down and moved it to Sheffield. I believe he works in a bookmakers now. He was always very keen on betting. What a small world fancy you being related to Tommy, give him my regards when you see him, he will know who I am, I used to joke that I went out with a girl the same name as his mother and I could be his dad.

 

We used to have some great banter, there were F****st fans, Derby fans, Sheff Wed., Sheff Utd., Man Utd., Tottenham, Chelsea, Chesterfield, Mansfailed, you name it.............I was the only Notts fan in the whole place apart from a girl who was in Editorial.

hello grannypie!
 

welcome to the community, i can already see you have been warmly welcomed and so i just look forward to reading your input here. nice to see joe's parents on board

Ay-up Tony ,

       Your identity is safe with me(I had a peek at your Motor- home site a while back and enjoyed some of your videos)

   I'm afraid that since my parents died I'm not in contact with my Alfreton area friends and relatives as much as I used to be ,though we all exchange Birthday and Xmas cards still. We've sort of drifted apart but do very occasionally  speak on the phone.I will mention you when I speak to them next. I think it's great to find such a connection.

Ah yes my videos, I hope you enjoyed them, I try my best but I'll never be as good as my late son he was the king of vloggers with his motorbike vlogs. He had literally thousands of followers all over the world. I sort of aspire to his achievements and took a lot of inspiration from his vids.

Yes, Tony, I enjoyed them very much. If I was  looking into somewhere to stay they would be very helpful.

Thanks  for the welcome Shrewswill. Super_ram has always kept me informed on site activity but now I can add my own twopennyworth .

Glad you joined, I like your nick.

Love you Grandma!
