Just joined right now. Very new to chatting on line and have never joined the social media scene (i.e. facebook, twitter et al) so not sure how to proceed. Life is tough for so many people right now and there are people who are in a much worse position than I am. Willing to chat to anyone who needs a sympathetic ear in these difficult times.

hi JoannaN7
i was interested to read that you enjoy art, The local art group here is one of the few groups which is currently open (it comes under adult education). I am a beginner but am learning a lot.
The autumn colours look lovely at the moment. Will perhaps get down to the local park today. it looked lovely the last time (as there had been so much rain)

best wishes

Hi Beatrice, I was interested in your comment referring to local art classes still being open because they come under adult education. Before covid I was looking for new interests and was about to join the U3A. I didn't pursue it thinking it would all close down, in the light of what you've said, that may not be the case. Len

Hi Kcmanager,

I am new to this site but interested to see you are in America. I have been following your Election and would be interested in your views on the current situation. I always feel we are fed News via the media that they want us to hear and prefer to hear the facts from folks at the grass roots.
I am a retired Nurse and live with my husband in Derbyshire, UK. Look forward to hearing your thoughts,

Hi Rhyll! 50 yrs old-eh? Still a kid! Haha-said the 80-something ! But you know, moving to a new town either married or by yourself is really a toughie. We retired and chased kids (after they got out of college) and they all ended up in the same city. but even with the help of three kids, you are still always experimenting around with finding the best car-repair place , supermarket, Doctors,banks, etc, etc. whereas in the town you left you were familiar with all those details, and now you must learn them over, even in the face of the pandemic. But with the vaciine available next month, I think we are going to see the lessening of that in the near-future. But a place that a lot of people seem to forget about in their fight against loneliness is one of the oldest- Church

Hi Tony, I had a boy friend called Tony about 70 years ago when I was about 10 years old, and lived near our own secret garden, a neglected empty large house, reputedly haunted, a marvellous place to explore. I wonder where he is now!
I am also on my own, not looking to replace the irreplaceable, but like to chat. I paint in oils a bit, landscapes mostly, garden a lot, and have a Collie dog with a brain who fits herself in around my life! I We used to walk a lot, not so much as I should now, but I keep pretty busy. I'd like to hear some of your stories, your spelling seems fine to someone whose husband and daughter were both seriously Dyslexic. Walking Dictionary, Me!!
Response from Tom2020 made on 8th Oct 2020 23:57:20
Hi PurpleHat,
Thanks for your post. I would like to see some of your paintings. I have posted one (Man on the Balcony).
Sorry about my spelling. I am am too lazy to double check my writings.
Do you still paint?
Response from PurpleHat made on 9th Oct 2020 21:35:27
Hi Tom2020 Just lately I have been suffering from Artist's Block, no inspiration, so I have been spending much more time in the garden. Now the weather is closing in the new Seed catalogues are dropping through the post box, so that will give me something to think about!.
I usually paint from my photos, of which I have hundreds stored on my computer, mostly landscapes I dare say I will recover in due course, it will come to me in a flash as my son-in-law says.
When my Dear Departed did not quite make our 50th, my daughter and I decided to go anyway and visit Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon on a self-drive trip. Great experience, and a lot of it off the tourist routes. Very illuminating. Later I travelled quite a bit as a single until the holiday fund ran out!. Then, pre-Covid, it was a coach trip or so!! Hey Ho! That's life! I'm so glad that I went.

I am also loney and bored I have been a widow for 8 years they say it's supposed to get easier but with everything going on now you're afraid to visit your kids because you might make them sick. So I have decided to remodel my kitchen and I will be taking custody of my four grandchildren in October. I live in San Antonio Texas and I'm just looking for a few good friends
