Hi Everyone, Just joined I am 61 years young 🙂 divorced 10 yrs 2 children grown and not living with me. I find I am at that time when lots of friends have gone / moved for various reason and so thought I would try here. I like to travel when I can but finding travel companions is getting harder so if anyone would like to chat /meet for days out or holidays please say hi and lets see what happens thanks for reading this regards Julie

Hi Julie where are you in the uk ?
Response from Julie101 made on 11th Jul 2017 19:17:41
hi Linniloo
thanks for the reply
I am in Oxfordshire where are you ?
Response from Linniloo made on 11th Jul 2017 21:38:54
Wow this site is a little weird to find your way around. Hope this is right to reply. I am in Bristol. I suppose not out of the question and not that far. Was hoping to find someone near Bristol to enable travel together from the start. Just nicer than hauling away on your own.
Response from Linniloo made on 15th Jul 2017 16:55:06
Hey Julie any luck with hooking up with someone near you?
I find this chat forum a bit hard to find my way around.

I quite fancy a Marigold hotel holiday
Anyone interested? Doesn't have to be abroad. Just somewhere near the sea will do

Hi l have never heard of marigolds but willing to give anything a try, I try to fit as many holidays in as possible mainly beach holidays in the sun with a few cultural excursions as well. I am always looking to meet new friends and travelling companions, so fed up of that single supplement.
I am originally from Yorkshire but now live in Bedfordshire if anybody is interested.

Hi I'm Angela/Angie I'm new to the site and new to the idea of finding friends to travel with. I live near Sudbury in Suffolk is there anyone out there who lives reasonably near to me? I am a golden oldie but am fit and young at heart! Ive got friends I can have beach holidays with but I want more adventures. I am off on my first holiday on my own next week - a safari in Kruger. I would prefer to travel with someone whether its for city breaks or long haul I hope there is someone out there who's interested in chatting

Hello all, I am new and looking for friends to talk to

Hi Stumpi,
Welcome to Siversurfers! Hope you find some topics of interest to you so that you can join in with the banter - alternatively, you could always start your own topic and someone is bound to make a comment or three! Have a good day 🙂
Response from CarolinaGirl made on 23rd May 2017 22:01:55
Hi
Welcome. I'm new here as well! I'm sure you will find some interesting and friendly people to chat up.
Your work sounds like fun. I would love to catch your show sometime.
I am in SC but I work as a Flight Attendant for American Airlines. I layover in Phoenix often and Tucson occasionally. I have never been to Tombstone but it sounds interesting!
Take care. Have Fun!

Thanks so much! I was just reading a beautiful poem you posted when I received the notification of your message!
Response from CarolinaGirl made on 19th May 2017 19:22:54
Sadly I'm not a poet or writer but I appreciate a good read! I have kept journals of my most memorable inflight experiences and I hope to publish a book when I retire. I'm afraid sooner would surely result in an "early" retirement! lOL

Hiya, just wandering around looking for a chat forum and Silversurfers was suggested. I have lived in the Scottish Borders for some 17 years after moving from the Manchester area. I am married for 51 years and care for my husband. We live in a very rural area and therefore find it difficult to get about. I love people enjoy socialising and I am afraid quite the 'chatterbox', but unfortunately those days seem to have gone since my husbands accident at work 10 years ago. I am very active but most days now I find it very boring due to lack of communication with people except with my husband and sometimes I can feel quite lonely. I love cooking and baking..hence my weight gain..haha, like to swim every day (quick trip to local pool 20 mile round trip). I am not a TV person but do love a good drama. Love to chat on any subject especially if I get onto my 'soap box' the standard joke about me is that I carry a collapsible one in my handbag...looking forward to chatting!
Response from CaroleAH made on 19th Apr 2017 23:50:51
Hi Pollypa8,
Welcome to Silversurfers. I'm sure that you will find lots of interesting topics which you can comment on. Whereabouts in the borders do you live? I'm interested in genealogy and have found that a lot of my father's side of the family came from the Leswalt/ Penninghame area and my daughter and I spent a very enjoyable few days exploring the area a couple of years ago. My ex-husband's parents lived near Beeswing so I know that part of Scotland reasonably well. If you like getting on your soapbox, have a look at Speakers Corner - loads of differing opinions!

Hi I want to get in contact with potential companions male or female, who possibly live near me ( Hampshire ....to make initial meeting easier) and want to go on holidays...share a cabin in a cruise ship to make it more economic is my goal, but only on small ships with no children allowed, e,g. Saga trips are the best.

Hi all, I have just joined and hoping to chat to different people just don't know what about! Live in Liverpool and retired 2 years ago and have not found anything to fill my time yet, just been enjoying drifting so far. Does anyone know if you get any notification of any replies or do I need to keep logging on to this forum?
Response from Wilf made on 16th Apr 2017 20:45:55
Hi Barbara-I have been on Silversurfers a couple of years. lots of friendly people and different areas to comment/chat on. You get an email each time a comment or chat is made-hope you enjoy yourself here!
Response from BarbaraT5 made on 16th Apr 2017 20:54:24
Thanks Wilf for the reply, glad I get an email because I didn't keep a note of the website!!
Response from CaroleAH made on 17th Apr 2017 11:07:56
After reading your comments re receiving emails when posts/comments are made I have discovered that I needed to tick some boxes in the Email Preferences section so that I am notified when there is 'mail' 🙂 Happy Days!
Response from Treehugger1 made on 17th Apr 2017 23:09:36
I have just been and double checked that I am registered to received email notification when there is a response to a topic I am interested in and if I receive a pm (chat) but am not receiving these. Can anyone help please?
