Looking for like-minded members to chat withYes I too agree with your comments. Once we get to the other side I'm sure most will be better for the struggle...well at least those who have maintained employment, coped financially and not suffered loss of loved ones. I had a long Zoom meeting on Wednesday and it was harder to concentrate and not be distracted. I'm a bit more pessimistic than some of my friends and don't put too much stock on an effective, safe vaccine being available any time soon so have focussed on coping with things as they are. Here in Australia ....well at least in Sydney....the restrictions aren't too onerous. A number of borders between States are still closed though in an effort to contain community spread. On the whole we're a pretty compliant nation and so don't have the unrest other parts of the world might experience. Fortunately at this time in Sydney there aren't restrictions on visits to families.ViewDate:

Looking for like-minded members to chat withHi Restless in Missouri. I just wanted to say I'm new here too. What I found interesting about your post was that I'm on a US site and lots of the men there (all of whom have prostate cancer) talk about wanting to move somewhere else for a variety of reasons. Some political and some just to move away from the more urban areas where there might be some unrest. I follow closely....mostly daily...US news and track the struggle to contain the virus. I communicate regularly each week with some chat friends - one in NC, one in Arizona, one in WV and another in Kanas. I had a trip booked to go to New York for a wedding on September 2 for the daughter of a friend who played basketball in the States and then to travel to meet up with two of these friends and check out the East Coast but unfortunately the virus had other ideas.....hopefully next year ♀️ I hope you meet others via this site who might give you some ideas about where would be a good place to move. My friend in WV talks about moving to Florida....guess that's where a lot of Americans retire to. Enjoy your weekend. Marianne.ViewDate:

Looking for like-minded members to chat withHi Trixzy, Happy to chat. I live in Australia but distance isn't such an issue now is it with COVID! I've just posted for the first time. I'm a carer for my husband who has prostate cancer but I'm still active and involved with family and work. keep safe and stay well.ViewDate:

Just joined so I'm introducing myself.I'm new too but I can't seem to find where you actually post to tell something about yourself like you've done. Maybe you can help me. Sounds lovely where you live. I live in Australia and we too have some beautiful countryside. I do love English TV shows though that show beautiful landscapes. I hope you make some friends here that can enrich your life some. I'm a bit far away to do that. We need that as our children move on and make their own lives. Take care and keep safe. Marianne.
