I am in the States, Oregon, to be exact. It's difficult with Covid and being over 70 to make new friends. I was doing great until Covid came along and the need to isolate so much to keep from getting Covid. I had hoped that Covid would settle down after this past year, but it appears a new strain is infiltrating the US now, ahead of the new batch of Covid shots.
I am not sure where Deepeg is, but I am in Southern Oregon. It's very hot down here, especially this time of the year and fires are raging it seems everywhere close by, but thankfully, not right where I am! I am an animal lover, have two horses and six cats, lost our whippet last year and miss her terribly.
So I am here just looking for people to talk with. Since Covid it seems socialization has taken a nose dive and I spend an awful lot of time home alone with my cats. And while I love them dearly, they don't completely take the place of talking with another human! 🙂
Hope you are doing well and that I may hear from you. It's been awhile since you posted, but thought I would try.

I’m sorry you’re lonely! That’s no fun! Isolation can be hard, even with adorable pets, like you have.
I’m off to Italy in a few days — I’m so glad the temperatures have started to come down.
Praying those fires in your area have died down.
I've just joined so introducing myself - I've recently moved to Devon, England. Gorgeous place to live but finding it hard to meet singles to make new friends. Everyone seems to be married!
I'm a retired teacher. I've travelled extensively, lived in USA, Norway, Maldives, but have a quieter life now in Devon.
Just recovering from a relationship break-up so back to singledom again 🙁
Would love to chat to anyone.
My husband use to go to bed early so I understand .
Welcome
Never been to Scotland but it looks fantastic to me as a lover of the wild.
I too am new. I live in Tennessee USA.
Ibet Scotland is beautiful.
I'm 73 now and my worls is getting smaller so it would be nice to have some chay pals. I do tend to have strong oinions on a lot of things.

How are you doing today. I'm new here and you have a very friendly face. Like you I'm always looking for new friends someone who I can also share my crazy days with. I live in SE Ohio and 67 years young, my parents produced a half Italian and half Hawaiian baby, actually 8 babies in all, I'm #3 in line. I love animals of all kinds, right now I have 6 cats all rescued and fixed, and on occasions a stray possum or racoon will visit. I also love plants indoors and outdoors. I had to retire early in 2017 after I had my second stroke, I'm totally recovered now but not as fast as I was. I do have a couple of good friends but they are very busy in their own lives with family, work and other things. Don' know about you but sometimes it's good to have an opinion from the opposite sex...By the way I'm a real female and not one of those wannabes they have nowadays. Anyway if you want to be friends I'd love to chat with you. I want to say that I am not one of those that is a pretend person like on Catfish....Hope to hear from you soon.
