So sorry I didn't get back to you sooner ; I have "hit and miss" problems with my old laptop ! The broadband signal where I am can be a bit of a lottery at times .
Thank you for the welcome to us "newbies" . It's so good to have a connection to each other , and maybe not feel as lonely too .; especially now of course .
I'm not really used to "chat rooms" , as I tend to use the phone and emails mostly , but when I was a bit younger I loved writing a letter or two to pen pals in the post ( what's that eh ? !! ) and used to enjoy thinking out and writing the odd poem when I was a youngster ; especially about nature .
Would be lovely to hear from you again Patricia , if you'd like that .
All best wishes to you and your family ,
Keep well.
Also , best wishes and keep well to everyone on Silversurfers !
I thought it would be nice to have a few lady friends to chat about this that and everything in these worrying times. I have many interests and I love long chatty letters. Get in touch if you want to chat to a friend. (ladies only please)
In all honesty I must admit that I am quite lonely and need to connect with people. There is only so much I can say to my precious dog!!!!!
Will reply to all posts.
All who read this post: "Have a rewarding and prosperous day" My favorite quote is "When the pupil is ready the teacher will appear" Bear in mind we are either teacher or pupil at any given time.

It’s too bad you’re so far away from. I would love to keep you company if only you’re close by. I love Scotland and I hope to visit it once again in the future.

I'm a lady who has spent several years touring the world, living in the theatre and on television and in the entertainment industry in general.
Have grown up children, and grandchildren and I'm now looking to correspond with a like minded gentleman, preferably aged 70+. (I'm a youthful pensioner who likes to take care of herself).
I love New York, and have taken my grandchildren to NY and have always wanted to go back or at least to find a charismatic gentleman from NY to talk with via email or phone. Other parts of the USA are welcome too :0)
I'm eager to start a new phase in life... always looking for something around the next corner as life is full of endless possibilities!
