Hi all, I'm Fionnuala from County Cork Ireland. I live in a rural area and don't have transport so am fairly house bound. Hoping to chat with some friendly folks to stop me going nuts.

I have recently joined and try to find my way arount the site. I live in Shropshire and am looking for a social friend to enjoy outings with. I am a young at heart, 85 year old widow. Smart, they tell me attractive, sense of humour and loyal.

Best wishes Sue

Hi LivingHigh, I’m also from Shropshire, Shrewsbury to be exact. I am also a widow age 69 and having problems finding like minded people. Where are you from?

That's interesting Sue....didn't know about local area...shall check it out!

Been into site allocated to my postcode...saw a couple of messages and added my own - came out of it then went back in to find the message:
"Recent Community Post Most Recent | Most Popular
Sorry, we couldn't find any results!"

Others appear to have had similar problem - and assumed finally no-one else lives in Suffolk!
Valla had suggested we could be allocated via country rather than a local town...in hope would help.

Hi CaroB4, I just thought I'd have a look around the "community" and see you live in Suffolk.
I'm new to the area, so always happy to chat.
My interests are pets, gardening, music, crafts, days out, walking and more!
