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 !!!

A Boilermaker @TAB Very Good.

I think you are a Rare Trade, or have Rare (special) Skills, these days.

Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Oh Sheesh! @TAB - that's incredible. Ok, more like an engineer then, by metal & welding makes sense. I dated a boilermaker in the navy in the 70s, didn't talk much about his work. 🤗

Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!
