Hi Everyone, Just joined I am 61 years young 🙂 divorced 10 yrs 2 children grown and not living with me. I find I am at that time when lots of friends have gone / moved for various reason and so thought I would try here. I like to travel when I can but finding travel companions is getting harder so if anyone would like to chat /meet for days out or holidays please say hi and lets see what happens thanks for reading this regards Julie

Hi Julie where are you in the uk ?
Response from Julie101 made on 11th Jul 2017 19:17:41
hi Linniloo
thanks for the reply
I am in Oxfordshire where are you ?
Response from Linniloo made on 11th Jul 2017 21:38:54
Wow this site is a little weird to find your way around. Hope this is right to reply. I am in Bristol. I suppose not out of the question and not that far. Was hoping to find someone near Bristol to enable travel together from the start. Just nicer than hauling away on your own.

Hey Julie any luck with hooking up with someone near you?
I find this chat forum a bit hard to find my way around.

Good morning Irene and welcome to Silversurfers. I have been on here quite a few years and there are lots of very friendly folk on here who are always good for a chat.

Hello Irene51 and welcome to Silversurfers. A good tip on how to get involved on our site is to take a look at Current Topics in our Forum and feel free to engage in anything that takes your interest. We also have a very active Speakers Corner section where you may find something that interests you. https://www.silversurfers.com/speakers-corner/ and if you would like to join the discussion on the challenges of self-isolation then here's where to go: https://www.silversurfers.com/silversurfers-forum/topic/daily-diaries-of-those-who-are-self-isolating-due-to-coronavirus/

I hope you enjoy being part of our community.

hi

Just joined & hope to make new friends. I work full time at the moment but get sick of spending most weekends alone or playing gooseberry to my lovely coupled up friends. I'm hoping to meet ladies in a similar position who want to meet other females for friendship, meeting up for a shopping trip, a drive out to the country/seaside or just a coffee/drink. I wouldn't say I was lonely because I enjoy my own company but it would be nice to make new friends, hence joining silversurfers. Nothing to loose and maybe a lot to gain.

Fed up with the depressing tv adverts constantly asking for money for many many charities or about life insurance and funerals. Please see my petition on Change.org to 'Restrict depressing tv adverts'. Something needs to be done. If you agree please sign and pass it on.

Hi all. I'm new. Want to go everywhere or anywhere but need some courage. Lost my amazing independence somewhere along the line. Be good to find a companion to share travel costs (car/accommodation/navigating) with. Pretty chilled. Love history, architecture, nature. Needing adventure in 2020. Any interest or suggestions, great. How all are finding their way

I also have many other interests in life, of course. I love travelling, new technologies, watching funny old British orAmerican sitcoms (watching Frasier and Miranda these days) docs about History... I am not a very good cook but if anybody is interested in some Spanich recipe, just ask. Also about places to visit here...

Hello, everybody. I have also just joined in. Still trying to learn how to use Silversurfers.

Recently Widowed, 66 years old, Spanish living in Spain, wishing to make new friends online.

I am an open talkative person, friendly and willing to hear and learn from you. I specially would like to talk to ladys recently widowed like me. Above all because we can understand each other feelings very well and support and encourage to go on. I think it is very important that we talk about our dear ones who have left us but remain with us. Some people, after one year of our loss seem embarrassed to talk about it and keep on saying "Come on, you should be ok by now" ... I am not a mourner but need to share feelings and memories with other people in my situation.

Hey there. Delighted that there are fellow nuisances in the world - I think that's a different phrase for people who take and interest and want to get things done! I've retired early to care for my 92 year old mum and, after 16 years in a secondary school with 1500 teenagers, I'm thoroughly enjoying the change. I have a degree in pootelling and generally walking about in my usual Dolly Daydream persona. Love reading, cooking, handicrafts and random acts of kindness. Basically, I'm pretty happy in my skin!

Hello all! I've just joined! I'm an amateur portrait painter using Acrylics. I'm interested in various types of music,and way back in the distant past I was a pianist.
My spare time is spent considering the meaning of life, gardening,waiting in queues,sleeping,and generally being a nuisance.!
