Greetings, looking for a PenPal...How I love - and identify with - your opening line! But, but....but as your post is such a long time in the past I doubt you'll be still be wanting more pen pals? If so please respond and I'll open up about myself. Hopefully you received lots of would-be correspondents prepared to give you a try and have enjoyed the months in between. Just as I went to sign off I saw some other recent comments and realise being 70ish and arthritic with active imaginations and brains is pretty rife. I find this SS forum hard to work out, so frustrating so perhaps the old grey matter not as strong as I hoped. Good luck to you and other fellow sufferers, magic dragon. Bilbo's loving MumViewDate:

Friend Emails, "Round Robin" Writing, and PhotographyGolly gosh Amber, it is a long time since you posted! Are you still in need of pen pals? I put my own ad out there years ago and initially had quite a few replies but none lasted very long. I remain in irregular contact with a lady i Scotland but she is barely literate which makes decent communication very difficult and frustrating. You sound a busy and interesting lady - one with a beautiful name. I enjoy creative writing and belong to a group here where I live in a seaside town in West Somerset. Have just bought a new sewing machine and looking forward to turning the mass of cloth and fabric I have hoarded over 40 years into clothes and homewares soon. I LOVE food. Cooking and eating. But I won't waffle on until I hear back from you in the hope you have a vacancy for another correspondent. Kind regards. SheilaViewDate:

Just joined so I'm introducing myself.I joined today after doing a search for pen friends as I enjoy writing. I belong to a Creative Writing group with my local U3A. We were asked why we write. I said for escapism but afterwards thought what I like most are letters.... Email is the modern equivalent but you can't beat a real paper letter with lovely handwritten words in ink. I love cooking and run a small Pudding Club. My hope had been to make mostly good old fashioned puddings but mostly we make cakes, desserts, pastries and biscuits. I have a plan to change the way the club is run to bring it to a wider audience. Men particularly seem enjoy a traditional homemade pudding, but we are all women. I live in glorious West Somerset and love it. We live in quite an isolated area in the hills where i am often out and about walking my lovely Spanish rescue dog Bilbo. He is a nervous little boy, finds the world a scary place full of noises and movements which make him jump in fright. He is getting braver and now comes out with us for pub meals. He makes himself as small as possible and sits hidden under the table where he does enjoy watching all the comings and goings. It is my birthday on Friday. I will be 67 so if anyone would care to reply that would be my birthday treat. Thanks for reading. -
