Newbie
Watch this postHi I've only just joined so I'm hoping this is the right place to post this. I'm in my 60's, retired but finding life a bit lonely at times. I am married but am very shy and lacking in confidence so am hoping to make some online friends.

Thank you for your welcome. I do a bit of voluntary work and have met a couple of nice ladies but I find weekends and evenings are quite lonely. Hope I don't sound miserable as I'm not! It must have been hard for you travelling all over the place.
Best wishes
It's lovely weather here today so I ought to be outside but I just thought I'd have a go at posting a reply and hoping that it won't disappear!
How is life with you, glad you keep busy. I do try to but there are days when I feel lonely.
Take care
I hope you enjoy your experience on here once you find your way around....it can get a bit complicated to follow but I'm sure you'll manage.
Don't be shy, just dive in and start responding to any topics that take your fancy. You'll find people are quite friendly once you take the plunge.
I'm not very good at technology so just hope that I'm doing this right! Have you been a member for long?
Hope you're ok. Chat soon.
