Grannyset blogs
Our Grannyset is made up of real grandparents who provide us with written articles on their area of interest which range from reading to retirement. They are our “people to ask” so you can write to them for more specific advice than you may find on the forums. More on the Grannyset.
Some of our Grannyset write blogs for us – these are regular updates on what is going on in their lives. Click on their names to read their blogs.

“I have visited various websites and forums but can honestly say that Grannynet seems to tick all the right boxes for me. The site has a wealth of information and ideas and the forum has a huge range of different subjects to choose from. It never ceases to amaze me the sort of subjects that get discussed.”

“To the Italian lakes for a week to try to prolong the fast fading autumn and pretend we are doing the Grand Tour. Our group are all of a certain age, the week overlapping term time, but in consequence we are an orderly and well behaved group with interesting lives lived and good stories to tell.”
“A time with the grandchildren out of the school routine and on my home territory is followed by a time just for me and hubby. This time is very precious and necessary so I can come back refreshed for my care of the girls…”
“I have three grandchildren… I adore them. I also love my job most days, what I don’t like is the meetings, endless meetings. Meetings about meetings. AARRGGH!”
“Well ladies I took it upon myself to investigate Gok’s new designs in our local Sainsbury. Sad to say, I was disappointed…”
“I always finish a facial with a facial massage using organic facial oils which are supposed to eradicate fine lines. Oh well… they smell good and feel divine anyway!”
