Hi, I am Tracy and I am 55. I am recently returned from living abroad and really know few people. I love to chat and to think and to learn and to travel. I am quite a non-judgemental person so all opinions make me at least think first. I love mountains and train travel so quite nerdy there. Probably can't chat about Love Island or Dance Moms but even then, I'll give it a go.

Hi nice to hear from you I also like going different places I like the train too so much has changed in the last few years in regards to travel constant strikes making it harder to plan travel

So you like nature photography that's lovely,where do you normally go to take photos.

I'm going out to do a bit of shopping this morning,I'm visiting Bilston market do you know it.
What are you doing today
Take care from Ann xx

Response from FELINEFRIEND made on 5th Jun 2023 15:02:14 > @Burnished bronze
Hi their
Just on train going home from Brum to bloxwich
We were surprised by how it's all changed since we last went before the pandemic,I said to my husband I might be old fashioned but I liked it how it was before all the modernisation,I loved the old bull ring and the outdoor market and all the atmosphere but I suppose things have to progress.
We had a nice lunch in the pizza hut and walked round the bull ring shopping centre.
It's getting warmer now in the sun I shall be doing some watering when we get home in the garden.
Hope you've had a good day
Best wishes Ann x

Hello...me too. I'm trying g to navigate around new site but am surprised how quiet things are. Do you think there's a " best time" to chat when there's likely to be others online?
Response from Norman67 made on 1st Jun 2023 13:37:08
I think it always takes time to get started

Hello ,
I am having a bit of trouble navigating this site but it does sound promising . I am a female , living in British Columbia . I am anti 'woke" and anti " political correctness ." I am pro enjoying life . I like reading ,live theatre , walking, stimulating conversation and being female . I have never become a feminist and have little sympathy for that group , have always enjoyed male company .
Response from GracieJayne made on 29th Apr 2023 02:48:10
Hi Marat! Nice to meet you! It is so refreshing to hear/ read such affirming comments about being a woman and not feeling smothered by a need to defer to “political correctness”!!
Response from Sally - Silversurfer's Editor made on 29th Apr 2023 08:37:31 > @GracieJayne

Hello Gracie Jayne ,
I am hoping we are part of a silent majority that keep having our beliefs swamped by the VERY NOISY few that advocate what is becoming an abnormal "norm."
Response from Vikig made on 3rd May 2023 00:50:13 > @Marag
Marsh, it’s refreshing to hear someone speak from the heart and say what is on your mind whether or not others agree. You sound like a strong woman.
Response from Marag made on 3rd May 2023 01:46:46 > @Vikig
Hello Vikig,
Thank you for your comment , I have never felt the need to be sheep and have always enjoyed life outside the herd .
Response from RedcapBFC made on 3rd May 2023 13:07:49 > @Marag
You sound lovely. Only just joined this site so trying to find my way around .
Response from Burnished bronze made on 3rd May 2023 13:39:14 > @RedcapBFC
Hi it's nice to see the blue skies I'm hoping to make new friends to chat with I feel we should be accepted for who we are and how ever we look after all we're all the same under our skin
Response from Marag made on 3rd May 2023 17:06:26 > @RedcapBFC
Thank you for the compliment Redcap , what are your interests ?
Response from Al1955 made on 24th May 2023 21:26:30 > @GracieJayne
Hi, I Agee with you , even though I’m not a woman
Response from Marag made on 26th May 2023 15:15:18 > @Al1955
Hello Al1955,
I think more men as well as women should express their anti-woke feelings . If enough people did so it may dawn on the corporations and media that they are alienating their customers/audience .
