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!

Hey there lovely newbie friends!

Just wanted to give an extra big, warm welcome (because it's cold here in Vic so extra warmth is crucial!) to our newest forum members who have signed up over the past couple of days:

How is everyone's week going? If you're in Vic and have the public holiday do you have any plans for the ling weekend? Or perhaps just the regular weekend?

Thank you 😊 I'm in nsw so no long weekend

Did some rearranging of my flat and have been watching "The Resident", an American medical drama to fill my day

Warm welcome to our newbies:

@elise_ @Keelyyanne @Elephant12 @Normansmum @Samandzara @Roquet @Mygirl02 @Wonderwhy

How's the public holiday treating you all?
Here's my question for the day: What's one thing that's made you smile this week?

For me, it was when I drove around the city last night and saw a fence where someone had left some sort of monkey face outline on it - i just did a quick google and apparently kids would randomly leave this sort of artwork in 2015 (the pic below is from the internet but its very similar to the one i saw). i think seeing this warmed up my inner child.

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

Yes, gardening is one of the great non-chemical medicines 😊 for me - and yes South East Qld plants.
