Just joined so I'm introducing myself.Hello Reg46, I am very sorry to hear you are recently bereaved. How are you coping with the lockdown situation? I am very new to this site but finding it really enjoyable responding to people. What's your favourite holiday destination? Look forward to hearing back.ViewDate:

Just joined so I'm introducing myself.Hello chasinSunshine, I too am new (a few days), it's nice to meet you. It sounds idyllic where you live. Being alone at this age is definitely not what I imagined when I was younger (will be 60 this year). I live alone now, have 2 sons, thankfully I do see them (well when not in lockdown) and grandchildren, my Mum, Brother, etc. I actually love being free and single, that's not say it would be lovely to have someone to share your thoughts and day with but not 24/7 haha. I don't think I could go down that road again. When my life went topsy turvy, I learned to love myself, my own company (even though sometimes I was trying to convince myself, but it worked lol).ViewDate:

Just joined so I'm introducing myself.Hello celtwitch, Sorry to hear about your health issues. You may need to go somewhere hot to cycle, I think it will be better for your body with the heat of the sun. I don't think our Sons, Daughters forget about us, it's just that daily life when you are a certain age is taken up with running a home, family, job etc. I think once you make some friends and start living your life, you will make your life busy that you won't be able to fit your family in lol. I too am on my own (have Sons, grandchildren, Mum, Brother etc.) but I joined a group near me who go out a lot. I like to go out sometimes with them (all on hold right now though) I couldn't keep up with them going out all the time. Look forward to chatting.ViewDate:

Just joined so I'm introducing myself.Hello MO2311, If you want a different experience, you want to work the land with the local people, or cycle and visit schools and hospitals, the Cuba Solidarity Campaign organise these trips. You can also just book a holiday through a travel agent but as I am not one for just lazing on the beach, cycling for 315km (if you can't keep up, you go on the coach, which I did quite a bit), suited me more.ViewDate:

Just joined so I'm introducing myself.Hello Wilf, Thank you for responding, this is exciting. I cycled 315km in Cuba in 2015 with the Cuba Solidarity Campaign it was a bit less than 2 weeks. I absolutely love it there. I definitely want to go back one day, maybe not to cycle - I'm not the fittest person. The people are just amazing. Sorry it's taken me so long to write back, I couldn't find my way around the website, I had a senior moment lol.ViewDate:

Just joined so I'm introducing myself.Hello everybody, I've just joined. What a great site it seems to be so far. I went on-line to look for a pen pal site really as I love writing letters, using a fountain pen. I will be 60 in July. I have great family and friends. I work 10 hours a week, working from home, thank goodness too, otherwise I might drive myself mad with the isolating situation. I have google earth on my phone so when I want to go travelling (armchair travel that is!) I just put in a country I want to visit and off I go. Lovely to meet you all.ViewDate:

Should WW2 veteran NHS fundraiser Tom Moore be knighted?This is someone worthy of a knighthood for his 100th Birthday. Well done Tom, you are an inspiration.
