Watch this postGreetings to all, This is my first post. I am 67, a retired nurse, mother of 3, grandmother of 5 soon to be 6.
Four years ago I started an at home job unrelated to healthcare. I share my home with my partner and 2 small dogs.
My interests are gardening, art, puzzles and cooking.
Over the last few years, I have lost a few family members and close friends and I am finding it very lonely without them. I’m looking forward to making new connections to chat or better yet pen pal.

Christine
I'm Christine, from Manchester, I'm 76 and this is my first post.
I lost my husband 4 years ago and I was hoping to make some new friends on this site and maybe find travel companions as I don't feel confident enough to go away on holiday alone.
I'm interested in gardening, day trips, reading, crosswords and puzzles and would love to meet people with similar interests.

Just a quick hello from Ireland.
Me and my wife are here presently in our holiday home. Chances are that because the way of live is so good here and we are near the beach ion one side and the mountains on the other, that the 4 of us will stay .
That's me and Rosalind and our two big dogs.
Please say hello sometime , I promise that like our dogs I will not bite......lol
Best Wishes
