Hello - I've signed up with Silversurfers for the first time today. I live in the north west of England & I'm hoping to make some new friends & keep what passes for my brain ticking. I'm a retired university lecturer & I'm 73 (how did that happen?) I imagine many of you have discovered, as I have, that as one gets older, one's address book gets shorter. So, I'm hoping to find things to do here, people to chat to, & to find new interests.
Thanks for reading.

Hi, I'm in Scotland too in the Borders area. Looking to make new friends and penpals too and who knows, maybe meet up some day.

Hi Freaky,
I'm new here but happy to make your acquaintance! I've always wanted to see Scotland. It looks so beautiful! I'm in the US, my whole life. You?? What do you do that makes your heart smile?
Look forward to hearing from you!

Sorry Feekay, spellcheck changed the spelling of your name in my 1st post to you! Sometimes technology can be a pain

Hello I had a thought to seek out some new 'pen friends' with similar interests. I'm a busy working person but ideally like to exchange proper letters with someone rather than chat in Forum threads. is it possible to do that on this platform?

Hello - if you look in the Pen Pal Forum thread you will find some other members who are likely to want to correspond by letter - https://www.silversurfers.com/silversurfers-forum/topic/id-love-a-pen-pal/

Hi I just joined in the last few minutes and wondering myself how to navigate but you seemed like a nice person so thought I would say hello from Canada. My husband goes to bed with the chicken and my son just bought his own house so no one to talk to. If you send me a note I will answer back. Fetrina

He went to bed with the chicken?
Response from Zandria made on 21st Jun 2024 13:09:49 > @benteemyyahoocom
No wonder she is lonely if her husband sleeps with chickens. LOL Just kidding. Are you kidding too, or are you unfamiliar with that expression?

Hi Fetrina,
I'm Lori and I just joined to find people who want to chat, too! I'm 61 and married but hubs goes to bed early also. Looking for friends for me now! Things change and I'm changing with them. Looking forward to hearing from anyone who's interested. We all need people, right?

Hi Minka,
I'm Lori and I live in the US. I didn't know that silver surfers was in England. I guess it doesn't really matter. Love to chat about all different things. I'm married but looking for friends for me. Husband isn't interested. I'm doing things for me now. It is what it is and we all have to find what makes our heart smile! I enjoy talking to people and making friends. How about you?? Look forward to hearing from you!

Hi Sbn51......why did you choose that as a handle ? What's wrong with say 'Joe Bloggs' hahaha.....take no notice, just kidding. Anyway 'HI' - I'm also a lady (a real one...giggles) the picture might give it away) living here in Scotland, Aberdeen to be precise brrrrr. I met a Scottish guy in Norway and he's from Turriff and I've been here 20 years or so.
You're rural you say, does that get rather lonely? or do you have a partner? Just out of curiosity what's your nearest shopping/town?

Hello, I just met an interesting fellow from Wales who pointed me here. I'm an American guy with a sailboat , so I hope that adds class to my character here. Feel free to message me
Response from Quails100 made on 27th Jun 2024 21:33:12
Hi there,
An American who enjoys sailing sounds great. Which ocean do you mosey around in?

Western Canada is my home although I am English born. I came to Canada 24 years ago and am now retired, thank goodness. No sailing experience, unless you count kayaking?

Greetings all! I’m a newbie here. . I live in Montreal, Canada. How is everyone tonight?
Response from Bama455 made on 20th Dec 2023 11:15:21
I'm new also from USA how are you
Response from Zandria made on 21st Jun 2024 13:04:16 > @Bama455
Hello Bama455! I see from your profile that the "Bama" is Alabama, USA. I`m also in the Southern USA, so I thought I would say "Hi." I was recently on another senior chat group and am new to this one, so if you answer me and I don`t respond, it`s because I couldn`t find your message. I have rarely found people who live near me on these groups. Most seem to be from the UK. It`s kind of nice to hear from another Southerner. I love living in the South! I have lived here all my life and intend to die here. Have you always lived in AL?
