Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Hey Forumites!!

This is a space for members new and old, to gather around and help make our newer members feel welcome!

We've all been newbies ourselves at some point, and can empathise with how incredibly daunting it can be entering a new space. A lot of folks have trouble even knowing where to start, and (even though we're in the midst of improving it all) we know the forums can be a tricky space to navigate - which can make it very difficult for newbies to be able to find their footing! On top of that, joining any established community means being 'the new kid on the block', and seeing others connecting easily with established relationships can sometimes feel like we aren't welcome, or that we need to 'break in' to the conversation somehow.

Well this space aims to alleviate that pressure and help facilitate some new connections! Whether you're brand new here or you've been here since the very beginning, you're welcome to come hang out, meet some new people, reconnect with others, and maybe even make a new friend!

We will try to tag new members as they join, so help us make them feel welcome!

Here's today's newest forumites:

Re: Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Thats impressive @Shaz51!

I bought a Peperomia today. I hope this grows. I have a gorgeous cat that I dont want for him to get sick but I would like to start creating a home that has some greenery in it. I feel it would make me feel a sense of calm , I think? Love plants anyway

Nature is calming, relaxing @Kashmina

A small yard with a fig tree @Shaz51. When I have the money and energy I would like to do more out there but I feel I need some greenness in here

Re: Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Do you have somewhere to sit @Shaz51?

I noticed a few weeks ago other peoples artistic endeavours. I have learnt how to crochet this winter and I think I may need to go get some yarn. I find it very relaxing. I have also attempted water colour painting and I really enjoy that too but I am too impatient. I feel like I need to learn how to draw/sketch better first. If anyone has any suggestions or ideas on how get started or get over the block to start again? Ha, maybe just start!
