CFN SpanGran has landed thread #8

[WhatIsThisWatt]

Hi guys! Wow I've just had a chance to come back on and noticed the last thread is full already?!

There also seems to be loads of people saying they're over it and don't believe me. That's fine, I'm not going to get into an argument with anyone. I had no idea that I would get so many responses when I initially asked for advice on this situation, however, they have really cheered me up through what has been a really crappy few days at points. Thanks all.

Sorry if ive pissed people off.

Anyway my Grandma has landed at the airport and should be with me in a couple of hours. It's not even that far away (she likes to take her time)

.

madja Thank you. What sort of bench and where is it? Thanks.

Ooooh welcome SpanGran! 👍🏼

Trellis? What have I missed?

*trello

To all the haters out there.

Scroll on by.
Block the thread.

It's okay - it's not compulsory to participate!

Love that SpanGran needs an after flight tipple having had a 2 hour (if that) flight!

¡Hola abuelita! Espero que tenga buenas vacaciones ¡en el jardin!

Hola

Love this thread, reading from sunny Spain with sangria in hand!

Ignore the negative comments Wat they are just jealous of your threads! I've been reading (and updating my family ) since you first posted and really feel for you. I'm sure the planning people will sort it but the bench sounds like a great idea.
I've also been loving all the songs - you are all so talented.
I hope you have a lovely evening drinking wine with Spangran- she sounds fab

An after flight glass of wine?! Your gran is a legend if she wasn't before!!

Is there any chance of a romance blossoming between you, or your friend, and Ken? Or gran and Ken? He seems like a nice man.

May I second /third/forth and fifth triplesalco suggestion regarding mark Harmon as ken... Also thanks for the picture! :D

Have CFN made an appearance?

Please can we post any summaries:updates on trello asap? I need to go to work and can't access mn stupid wifi forum restricted thingy but can get on trello!

Do you know, even if this was made up (I don't for a minute think it is) it is still one of the warmest, kindest and funniest threads for a long time. And OP I am keeping everything crossed for you that this gets sorted soon.

Long time lurker, just managed to catch up.
@WhatIsThisWatt can I second the request for the sangria recipe???
Spangran is my new hero!

Right, game of thrones watched (it's a good un) and new thread all caught up.

Cheers to you op and to Span Gran ole! 🍷

Someone posted a really good summary on the last thread?
Sorry I came remember the name! Anyone?? just to save people asking for updates (not a huge amount has happened other than me and my friend drunkenly taping the door/ me untaping the door/ CFN returning with blank stares all round/ another call to planning/ SpanGran getting pissed at the airport AND lots of songs/ pics and niceness from posters)

@WashBaskets looked like a pretty heavy wooden one (think railway sleepers) It took two of them to carry it. As fast as I am aware, it is in front of the doors. There is a picture somewhere, but I can't find it just now ..

Glad you're grandma has arrived.

Hope you get some answers soon!

Spangran!

Wattyy so sorry the bastards are at it again

@SchadenfreudePersonified I'm starting to like you. White chocolate and Mark Harmon are both weaknesses of mine too.

Do you know, even if this was made up (I don't for a minute think it is) it is still one of the warmest, kindest and funniest threads for a long time. And OP I am keeping everything crossed for you that this gets sorted soon.

Totally agree eyeore.

But TBH I can't say I saw any nastiness about Wattyyyy - just some people saying they couldn't be bothered with all of the songs and poetry which they though filled the thread up for nothing.

I think that these are the things that have made this thread the thing of joy and beauty that it is. Everyone has had smooch fun, and if I was Wattyyyy I would be over the moon to have so much support and something to take my mind off the stress and angst that this must be causing her.

*so much, smooch fun is a different thing entirely!

Great minds think alike, Fraggle

Hi Span Gran with the Paella pan!!
