Hi Brian,

I am a 62 years of age female and I am also widowed as of 2016. I would also like to chat or email. I am still working but evenings get a bit too quiet sometimes and it would be fun to chat occasionally. 🙂

Hello Dee. The quiet times can be rather daunting, it would be great to have a chat with you, if you would prefer email that would be fine it's also not open to all . What kind of work do you do and what part of the country do live, do you have interests/hobbies, my email address is [email protected]. looking forward to hearing from you Regards Brian.

Good morning Brian. 🙂 I hope you are having a great day! Just letting you know that I did send an email, but I am wondering if it might have gone to your junk mail. My email name is a little odd, it was my husbands before, and I use it now. Its bullwnkl11, so if you see that, its me. 🙂

Hi Mason. My name is Brian and from the UK I have regular contact with dee from Oregon would you like me to let her know that you are trying to get in touch with her as I mail her everyday. She is an extremely lovely lady with such a big heart and so much fun, very good sense of humour, a very loyal and warm hearted friend, if i were to pass information onto her it would be on condition you were very respectful and kind because she deserves no less. To me dee is a valued friend. Like with all of us life has it's ups and downs, and right now she could use some extra happiness injected into her life I try but there's also a pond in the way.
Kind Regards Brian.

It's Mason again. You share kindness and I would enjoy a friend in the UK. I had an English Nanny as a very young child she was very good to us for sure. I would be interested in your and perhaps general UK feelings on the following if ok. What about the mess in Ukraine? What do you feel is the agenda there from Russia? Think they will invade more of Europe? I'll share my thoughts on America any topic as well. PM me might be easier atleast for me. As I stated before please use my email as well.

I really look forward to talking with you. Thanks again!

Peace on earth
Mason

Hi Mason I have forwarded your email details on to dee, should she have not been in touch with you in the next few days I will her email address direct to your email account. The question you asked me I shall reply to you in due course. At this point in time I am a little tied up but will get back to you
Regards Brian

Hi Brian
Have you ever been to Australia? A year ago I moved from Victoria to south Australia as I lost my job during covid. I had to sell and downsize to a smaller doer upper. I'm busy fixing it on a tight budget at the moment doing a lot of it myself. I have a very big garden which has taken a lot of time. I live quite near to the beach but am quite isolated with the nearest town half an hour away. I don't know much about high Wycombe and don't think I've ever been there. Hope to travel again one day but Australia won't let us out. A bit like North Korea lol. Take care Julie

Hi Julie
Sorry I see that you wrote five days ago the message has only just shown it self, no I never been to Australia I had thought about many years ago, with what you hear coming out from there it sounds like the government is a bit grim , then you saying they won't let you out ,while you are where you are at least use that garden to help feed yourself, as your budget is tight use what you have.
What part of the UK were you from and is it your intention to return home providing the North Korean boarder guards let you out.

Hi Brian. I love a good sense of humor. I am a 70 yr old widow. Most of my friends passed on and am finding myself getting lonely. Looking for some new friends and some good conversations.
Response from Brian4 Original Poster made on 21st Jun 2022 11:37:33
Hi Princessmarissa. Having a good sense of humour is compulsory with the way things are these days, and being lonely is definitely not good for the soul. Do you have pastimes or hobbies and what makes you feel good. What area of the country do you live in, I also enjoy a good chat / conversation. Regards Brian

Hi Brian thanks for your message. I am a 73 year old who lives in Leighton buzzard. A widow since feb 2018. Have recently had to give up Aqua due to a shoulder problem but I still stay active by walking. I enjoy meals out and a glass of wine . I have a daughter son-in-law and granddaughter who lives nearby. No pets at the moment but always had a dog when family were growing up. Never say never.
Regards Rita

Good morning Rita. Sorry for the delay in responding, have been busy trying to clear my garage ready for my mini tomorrow but as all men and garages have found stuff that I last moved 20+ years since, haven't been completely successful as yet as it's a double one, but hey ho I'm getting there, puss cat is helping by getting in the way as they do. What types of walks do you enjoy and how far do you walk, Do you have any preferences on food. I used to have dogs they were all great if I did have one now it would either be an Akita or a Malamute probably the latter. Do you have any pastimes hobbies that you enjoy, the last time I was in Leighton Buzzard was about ten years ago it had changed over time but everywhere does these days and rapidly. Regards Brian

High Brian4. I am a little bit older than you, biut looking for friends to have a chat with. I live in Norfolk.
Response from Brian4 Original Poster made on 14th Jun 2022 19:53:47
Hello Carol. Age is but a number the desire to feel alive is the important thing, and chatting with people who make you feel happy and hopefully make you laugh, is something that we all need especially in these times, I live in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, sadly widowed, which is why I joined, the loneliness is very difficult, I do like talking with people I have a cat who is my little fur baby, I am very honest, hobbies are the garden, driving not in rush hour I avoid that, cooking, and yes I I will chat with you and hope we can form a friendship Regards Brian.
Response from carolkiely made on 15th Jun 2022 06:31:21 > @Brian4
Hi Brian. At last someone is willing to chat. I agree about the desire to feel alive, time is passing all to quickly.
Honesty is top of my list for friendships. I have lots of hobbies and like driving but not to far. Its lovely that you have your little fur baby for company. You sound like a positive person Brian so hopefully we can form a friendship between us. If you would prefer we could communicate by email if you would prefer, it would be better for me. Hope to hear from you again Brian. Regards Carol.
Response from Brian4 Original Poster made on 15th Jun 2022 09:24:04 > @carolkiely
Hi Carol. Yes Email is fine with me the address is on my page if for any reason it doesn't show, will definitely send to you, I am very surprised with this site that people want you to contact them because they are lonely and then you get no reply when you do, and it seems like you have had the same issue, people can be very strange at times, well Carol tell me something about yourself, what part of Norfolk do you live and how's your day going, and what takes up most your time. Kind Regards Brian.
