Looking for like minded friends to chat with online
Watch this postHi, Just saying hell0.
I am recently widowed, my husband did the driving so I was happy to give it up, however now find I am stuck in the house a lot more and sometimes find it a long day.
It would be nice to have someone to talk to online

I am an 80 year old widower living in a large house by myself. I look forward to having someone to talk to.
I am an active senior citizen. Cooking, laundry and most things done by myself.
I do not shovel snow or mow grass however.

About me. Well I lost my husband in October 2021. We'd been married for 61 years so it was a major shock as it was so sudden. I've got 2 sons, 5 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren. I love going to the ballet,reading,doing crosswords and listening to mainly classical music. I also play Scrabble on line. Very addictive.
Unfortunately I don't drive. It would have been very handy but the buses here are very good and at least I don't have to find parking spot.
I live in a London suburb of Chingford which is in East London.
Hope you see my message. Would be nice to chat.
All the best
Leila
Hope we can chat.
My name is Leila and I live in London. Be nice to hear from you.

Losing my husband was a big shock as it was so sudden. We'd been married for 61 years so it was a lot to take in. He collapsed at home on a Tuesday morning and died the next evening in hospital with an infected gall bladder.
I live in London in one of the suburbs. Chingford in East London. I'd love to move but the thought of packing up puts me off.
Hope you are well
Love to chat some more
Leila
This is very sad that your post is so old and no one has responded, I just joined today. I would be very happy to have a yarn with you. I'm 64yo married and retired, because of the covid stuff My volunteer work with German Shepherd Rescue came to an end and I find myself at a bit of a loss.
I know how long days feel, it would be nice if you would like to talk.
Kind regards

I spent a couple of days in St Austell without a car. I think when the sun is out it puts a different perspective on things but now it's going into winter that is another adjustment
Are you taking care of yourself. Even if you don't go out, are you eating and sleeping well
What kind of thing do you enjoy...
I went to Tate St Ives this week and it was SHUT. Duh. Still I got a day out in St Ives instead. I'm so glad I had hat gloves and coat. I don't think I saw any shorts and even the cute black and white local birds were scurrying about. It was definitely squally.
I can't say I enjoyed much what was on offer. Keeping on the move was a very good option. Although I much enjoyed a great takeaway soup which I wandered through arcades and narrow streets with looking at the window displays.

Valla46 from Suffolk here again. How are things up in Norfolk ? Been very hot here, of course, but cooler today. I am still up for a visit to Norwich if you fancy meeting.
Let me know, or we can just chat.
I have my daughter visiting today, who I haven’t seen for five years. Wish me luck!
Take care.
Val
I truly understand how you feel I'm new to this site. I listed some profile information.
I hope we can chat

What’s your problem? You said you were going to chat with me if I wanted you to, then you cancelled everything! Maybe you will do the same to Phoenix. Remember, we (you included) are vulnerable people, and deserve a little respect and careful handling.

Welcome to this site I am new here less than a week ago.
I'm disappointed in the lack for response while reaching out to hopefully work to develop an acquaintance or friend. I was hopeful for this site.
I'm a lonely quality person I hope to hear from you!

I wanted to drop a line since I just read your posting about (U3a). I'm going to look into that organization etc.
I'm new to this site perhaps we can chat?
