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 !!!

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

Evening @Shaz51 @Healandlove @fairyheart @Jynx

was nice this morning when I was dropping off food donation to cat rescue centre. Turned cold this afternoon, been bludging on the couch all afternoon and working on crotchet spread, one of my unfinished projects. Lol

@Shaz51 would you and Mr Shaz have to completely stop working when retire? Could you do similar work for less hours? Maybe voluntary work few days a week?


when I retired I walked away from toxic workplace, one of best decisions I made. I started doing voluntary work as wanted to do something to help fill in some time

happy to hear you are feeling better @Jynx

I’m hoping to visit a neighbour tomorrow to get some tips etc about making greeting cards. She’s struggling to get rid of flu bug.

Monday need to do laundry and grocery shopping.

one advantage of being retired, more flexibility. If don’t get something done one day, quite often doesn’t matter as can do it the following day … or 2. 🙂

Hi @Glisten and @fairyheart, how are you? I've just finished an hour and a half workout and am almost finished reading a fascinating book about the history of exercise, or more to the point it's about the book "Gymnastica" that Girolamo Mercuriale wrote in the 1560s.

In response to: Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

1560 wow @Abner

Very true @Former-Member , about retiring, you can do it today or tomorrow 👍

Had a nice lunch with family.
