"really" making new friends!Hi lily, yes it’s a tricky one I was an army wife and moved 17 times in 21years ! And I had 4 children , 2 of whom went to boarding school post 11 for stability in their education. I dreaded going to the “wives club” coffee morning as a newbie but no other way to settle in I used to hope I’d meet someone from a previous posting . I also did not conform to the rules why should I be judged by what rank my husband was what a load of cobblers . When I retired I tried a few activities but it’s hard to break in to established groups , I do however volunteer at a living history museum and work front of house and I love it meeting people of different ages countries and as I always have had an interest in local history and love to chat.....perfect .ViewDate:

I’m a keen crafter and I sew every afternoon I’ve caught up on half finished projects that are in my “I’ll finish it later “ trunk , I cross stitch and bake .
