After a bit of time we have a few respondents so how about trying to start a Norfolk social group of some sort to chat, socialise or meet from time to time? Email us at [email protected]

Hello Norfolk! It’s absolutely rubbish weather otherwise I would suggest a coffee at Blickling near where I live. I am a widow at 56 life is not easy for those of us who find ourselves on our own at this time of life, but you just keep on going. Groups are only what you are prepared to make of them and sometimes you have to put a great deal more in than you get out., we live in a fantastic part of the country and the trade off is that we are spread apart. Merry Christmas to you all!!!!!

I'm in Norfolk too and have recently joined Silversurfers so slowly finding my way round. I card for my parents for several years and both passed away recently so trying to find my feet and some new friends. Love to hear from anyone who enjoys a walk, coffee or sports

Hi,
I am new to Silversurfers, having taken early retirement at the age of 55 from the NHS in July 18. I live outside of Norwich and have lived in Norfolk for the past 30 years. I would love to join any Norfolk social group as I am very sociable. I love being retired from full time work and keep mysel busy with volunteering and pursuing my hobbies .

I have looked back to find that I started this search back in 2015 in an attempt to form some form of social contact amongst Norfolk residents and three years on the answer is what a waste of time! I work as a volunteer for Age UK doing Befriending on the telephone, we cannot do face to face due to lack of funds but this brings a lot of pleasure to many lonely people and not all living on their own. Why is it that attempts to stimulate something similar through Silver Surfers hits a brick wall and falls flat with no response?

I have had several attempts to stimulate social contact of any form on here and elsewhere without any luck, other people have had the same experience. It is the same with holidays you meet someone, go around with them, get on well and exchange details and that's it, you never hear from them! Why? People will admit to being lonely, particularly in the winter so why not exchange a phone call or an email or even meet from time to time. Is everyone frightened of being conned? I work as a volunteer for Age UK, have done for 9 years so have had all the necessary checks carried out to be able to work with possible people and I cannot crack it, answers please.

Hi everyone. This is my first post. I live on the Cambridge/Norfolk border near to Downham Market. I am a relatively fit 71 year old but quite shy and returned from 8 years in Spain a year ago following the death of my husband 3 years ago. I have a dog walking friend but feel there must be other interests to pursue as well! I like gardening although mine is a project and tiny! Look forward to hearing from any of you

Hi, I moved to Costessey from Suffolk back in February and would love to meet others here. I enjoy walking, Pilates, yoga, reading and socialising. Would really like to make some new friends!

Hi Boudica, I'm in Norfolk, in fact I've always been in Norfolk. I occasionally get out of here but always return after a few days.

Hi I am not a native of Norfolk but have been here half a century. I was told that might entitle me to an honorary "puddin"! Not sure but nice thought.
P.S. great rock band called black dog often play at the walnut tree shades in Norwich.
