Hi, My name is Marcie, I am 65 and disabled, so am very isolated. Would love to have people to talk to.
I have had an interesting life and am a birdwatcher.

Thanks for your message. I am just isolated, so would like to develop some "friendships" through this website.
My FB page is Marcie Ford and you are welcome to take a look and maybe we have some common interests.

Will write more when things settle down.

Thanks

Where abouts do you live in Canada? Canada’s a big country. I realize your missive is now over 2 months old so you may have given up. Website not the easiest to navigate.

Hi Sally, I have just moved to Queensland and I enjoy watching the very colourful birds here. Can you give me any tips on feeding them. I see Galahs, rainbow lorikeets, crimson rossellas, on my lawn. And of course magpies and butcher birds. I only know what they are called because I got a book from the library but it didn't say anything about feeding them. The birds are so much prettier than those in New Zealand.

Hi Marcie.
I live in east central Florida, USA about 45 minutes south of Cape Kennedy and Nasa. I live in the country and, though I am not a bird watcher, I do love the local birds. For many years, we had a pair of red tail hawks nesting in a pine tree out front. When the chicks hatched, I would often sit on the tail gate of my truck watching the antics.
One day, after the chicks had fledged, one of the young hawks caught a baby turtle but managed to accidentally drop it at my feet. I took the turtle back to the pond and released it. All the way from the house to the pond, the young hawk followed close behind me screaming for me to return his hard-fought meal. I just repeated the old adage, "Finders keepers. Losers weepers." He did not appreciate my humor.

Hi Chrissie1152, when you said that you would not hold your breath while you were waiting, do you mean for the council to come and do
the work or for someone to reply to your post? Hope it is the former
as here I am. I am 73 and live in Southampton, I live on my own in a
flat in a retirement building, I message a nice lady that lives up north,
she is younger than us, but we seem to be on the same wavelength.
If you would like to carry on chatting I will be pleased to hear from you.
Hope tha you have a good day, best wishes, Terry.
Response from Safariman made on 15th Nov 2021 13:57:14
Hello again Christie, thank you for your welcome reply, I was sorry to
hear of your recent loss, luckily I have not had to go through that sad
situation. I hope that things get easier for as time goes by. I have never
been to Crewe so don't know what it is like, whilst I was in the Army I
was stationed in Chester for a while before being posted to Berlin. I
hope that our little chats will help you keep your spirits up. Do you
have children near by? They would be a great help to you if you do.
Not a bad day here today but it slowly getting colder as the days go
by, one of my sisters is coming down with her husband for the day on
Thursday so that will help pass the day. They live in Basingstoke so not
too far away. Glad that you have mastered this site at last, a lot of folk
seem to find it difficult to navigate, have to go out to have a medicine
review, so will catch up with you later if that's ok with you. Enjoy the
rest of the afternoon, take care, Terry.

Just found this group and it feels right. Just looking for people to talk with. I like to hear about lives and share what might be interesting in mine. I'm 62, living on the lovely east coast of Canada.
Response from Trillium made on 13th Nov 2021 17:10:53
Hi There Wayne
I live in downtown Toronto overlooking Lake Ontario and just enjoyed a week on Savary Island, BC and now taking some time in the beautiful city of Vancouver. It wasn’t that long ago that I visited your neck of the woods. Equally beautiful without the mountains. I enjoy travelling to different parts of the world and have enjoyed visiting Australia, the Philippines, Thailand, Croatia, Italy, Greece, Germany, France and Holland. Loved it all. Looking possibly to do a Viking River cruise this coming year.
Well, that gives you some idea as to what I enjoy. Tell me about your life on the lovely east coast and where you are located on the east coast.

Very new to chat... 62 and not feeling like I fit in anymore... I'm hoping to find out where everyone fled to.
I miss people very much. I hope there are people out there that care about each other. Is this a place where people care?

Hi, if you’re looking for like minded people to chat with, it would be good to more about you so we can have an idea if our ideas/interests are similar or not,
Response from Stargazzy made on 20th Sep 2021 20:23:42
Hi Paisley!
I work full time in a large Charity shop as the Manager. We sell everything and anything including furniture.
I was a florist for 30 years before that and love flowers plants gardening and anything natural. So I love the beach , and the countryside and I am lucky to live near both.
I am a Mum to three, and Nana to two ( 3rd incoming in Feb)
I am not a church goer, but raised Christian and would say I live a kind caring existence. I care very much about animals, and am very earth conscious. Planet saving matters to me.
I am not Political, l love Music and the Arts!
Hope that gives you an idea
