Have been here a good few years, met some amazing people, made some great friendships, and had some very supportive advice, but now I think it is time to leave - I don't think I fit here any more, maybe a reflection of the divisions in our society or of my rapidly increasing age !

Love and peace to all x

Oh no Kurri! I don't think we have chatted directly but I have seen your name on many threads and you have such wisdom. Relationships won't be the same without your two penneth 😔

Oh Kurri - I'm sorry you're going. I post less and less - like you, I think I'm just too bloody old at this stage - so I do understand. I still like to know that MN is here when I need it, though, and once in a while I have a "I think I'll go on MN" moment - I'm glad it was tonight, so I saw this.

We met once - about a hundred years ago at a meet-up thing in a cafe somewhere - and it was a delight. Hope you're OK x.

I've been here since 2009 and I know your name. It's a shame to see you go, but love and peace to you wherever you are Flowers

Oh Sad Too many 'old timers' are leaving. I'm pretty sure I'm older than you though, and find I can't escape!

That's sad kurri but I completely understand why you're going. I think my time is coming up too.

Aw, cheerio Kurri! I know you, I've been here years (but name change lots) and I remember one particularly funny (well, to me!) thread about the cleverest MNer. Your dog ranked pretty highly IIRC. Grin
All the best to you. Flowers

I've been here 16 years. Too long really. It feels very ugh now. Too many posters not seeming genuine desperate to do anyone down.

I've seen you around a lot over the years, OP.

I understand totally where you're coming from. All the best Flowers

Will be sorry to see you go, Kurri. I'm still hanging in here, though I'm also visiting Gransnet a bit more often, even though I'm not yet a Gran (though I will be acquiring a son-in-law later this year, so you never know...)

Sorry to see you going Kurri. Another one here, who’s posting less. Dd is an adult now, this place is very busy, I don’t feel the same connections, etc.

Sorry to see you go Kurrii. I've always looked for you because you had your cancer just before mine. Well, we're both still alive.
Go well.

I recognise your name Kurri and sorry that you're going. Have to say I don't post much these days apart from Playmobil threads.

Oh no Kurri - that’s sad. You are so sensible and wise. And you were lovely IRL when we met up years ago in Norwich - I think @Hassled was there too and equally lovely.
Take care xxxx
