Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Well hello to anyone who's discovered this new thread .... and welcome!!!

For some time I've noticed things are a bit quiet on a Saturday, especially in the evening. So this will be a social gathering for all forumites and hopefully a place to relax and meet friends. It's also a place where you can talk about whatever's going on for you at the moment, safely, and find support.

If you want to bring something to eat or drink that would be welcome, whatever makes you happy.

Actually that may be a good place to start - jump in anywhere and let us know one thing that makes you happy - currently or over time.

Really looking forward to finding a posse to hang with on a Saturday.

L E T ' S P A R T Y !!!

And of course the beverage of your choice.

EDIT : Do feel free to contribute some music too. Of any style. The more the merrier ...

Welcome!!!

Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

No I haven't been to Coober Pedy, as far as I know @Bunniekins

Did a lot of Outback trips in 1970's & 1980's with my parents, though.

Northern Qld (from NSW), Vic, mostly NT - probably came close to CP.

Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Yes it was "Fire in the Stone" by Colin Thiele @TAB You got it straight away.

Tragic (in the end), most of the Goodies die - sounds like a regular Dr Who episode (where everyone except Dr Who dies).

Good morning to all passing by here today. Hope it's off to a gentle start and has some happy highlights in it, or at least the satisfaction of ticking things off to-do lists. @Adge @TAB @Bunniekins @Shaz51 @waterlover @MDT @Appleblossom @Zoe7 @Maggie @Former-Member @Bimby2 @frog @outlander @Gazza75 @Ant7 @The-red-centaur @Meowmy @cutiepiekitty @Scarecrowe @BlueBay @Molliex @Owlunar @Lesmall @Former-Member @Jacques @saturnzoon @Exoplanet @CheerBear @Teej @Faith-and-Hope @Tess58 @Doglover @Sophia1 @Queenie @Smc @octavia @Maxi7 @Sans911 @Snowie @JosRapp @simontemplar @Dadcaringalone @eudemonism @Former-Member @Alacarte @Bill16 @Everan and anyone I've missed. If anyone wants to tag others here you are welcome to do so.

And a big welcome to the forums to @Elmo @ape @TheGreatestStar @Lindy9 @Sraws46 @KB23 @Molly3 @Alligator_ @Negi @Lee3 @Saff @Spirit77 @Tropicalrose @SS47 and anyone else who has joined us recently. This is a place to just hang out on a Saturday, be social or share what's going on for you. We are a friendly and supportive bunch. You might even find folk with common ground around diagnoses, hobbies and interests, or life experiences.

Just FYI I have bipolar 1 and complex PTSD if any of you want to chat about life with those type of issues. I'm into cooking to share with others, writing, music, colouring in, going to the beach and water tai chi atm. Also a bit of new-age-kinda stuff. And was a massage therapist for nearly 30 years.

But also I can suggest others who might contribute if our experiences and challenges are different.

Maybe people would like to start the day by sharing a couple of things going on for you or that you are interested in ........... Right now I'm into having some food!!

Have a gentle and peaceful day all. I'll be in and out of here over the day. Also have a couple of offline things I need to do at some stage.

Take care, I care xx
