Just wondered if other grapes like to look at the statements? with the signatures, when reading some of them there are some absolute classics among them, and no I am not going to highlight any of them but thanks for the all.

I agree, some of them are really funny and others are thought provoking with many shades in between.
Mine comes from a poem that my Great Aunt Eva used to quote to me when I was little. I only remembered "A garden is a lovesome thing, God wot" but when I joined the Grapevine and it seemed to be really appropriate, so I found out what the rest was - et, voila as they say round these 'ere parts

I find myself reading them. Some are great, others a bit daft and the odd one or two make me wonder what some people have been smoking / drinking / taking *delete as you think fit.
I tried to come up with a suitable signature for myself, but not found one I like yet. It's either too obscure a reference, or too childish (which can be appropriate for me) or just plain stoopid.
I'll put one up when I get one I like.Comment

I love them. I will pick on a couple tho as I like them so much. One is a (sorry if they are not quite right) knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit intelligence is not putting it in a fruit salad and the other is I dream of a better world where chickens are not questioned for crossing the road

I'm dyslexic and signatures (along with moving avatars and other "wibble" in the page) make it much harder / slower for me to digest the content, so I have them turned off. Same with adverts.K's Garden blog the story of the creation of our gardenComment

I love the Bilbo Baggins quote
“I don’t know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.”
