Hello wrnklesironed.
Love your user name. Almost on your doorstep in Wakefield.

Hi JE, wow, you really are on my door step. My name is Karen and I'm 56 years old and am a widow.
I've just moved to West Yorkshire from Lancashire. Apart from my next door neighbours, I don't know anybody here. Only moved in December 2020 so just over three months ago. I'm still trying to find my way around the area. Have you lived in Wakefield long?

Hi Karen.
I am original from the north east but have lived in Wakefield for about 50 years now. I am single, almost 70 and retired and can’t wait to get out of this lockdown. Feel like I am becoming more like a recluse but I keep telling myself it can only get better!
It must be difficult to move to a new area and try and meet people in the present climate. .Happy to chat should you want to. All the best, Jennie

Hi Jennie, yes, I would love to chat. My sister is 70 this year. Still wondering what to get her for her birthday. No matter how often you ask what she would like, it is still difficult.
What are you going to do when you get out of lockdown? Do you have many friends, family, children etc?. I am on my own. My husband passed away nearly five years ago after 28 years of marriage. Due to his condition, we didn't have children.
My sister lives down south.
All I really would like is somebody to have a casual walk with, sit and have a coffee, shop, day out, just chill and get to know somebody.

Hello to all the lovely people out there. This mature lady with salt and pepper short hair, well more salt if truth be known, recently moved to the county of Durham to a friendly coastal village community.

Would love to chat with people especially in these times.
