Afternoon everyone! :))

Am around, am ironing and more.

Just had the most dreadful wave feeling so ill followed by a migraine attack ... should have recognised the 'aura', tis caused by being on this new layout.

Taken migraine tablets, trying to work through it. Just wish GR would listen.

Heyho, onwards and forwards ... tis worse for others.

Oh bless her little cotton socks! :)

I'm sure there are many who are on their own for whatever reason, others too like me to chat to.

I don't drive, am lucky as there's a train station 5 mins from my house, yet still a long journey to visit my friends. Only 20 mins from London though.

Am so luvin Kew, I can go there too on the underground from Barking, only a few stops from my station.

Just thinking, could put a thread up, where do you live or want to make friends, meet for a coffee, friendship or something. Will think about it.

Just putting my ironing board up ... oh the joys of being a woman, am coming back as a man next time! No, there are men too who multi-task, just joking.

You'll be about to have your lunch I would think.

Thank you for that. Yes i would like to be home by myself. Plus have my computer that works

I think i will be at home as least then i can go on here must be others that will be alone and come on here.

If i could drive wouldnt be so bad, ad least if i wanted to pop to see anyone i could.

But i will make the most of it.

Caitlin has just come back, fast asleep.

I was going down to Kew today. But hadnt sorted what i was going to look up out. But going down next thrusday.

I dont know if anyone on board lives in Mk or near it.

Well done you, sending you such positive thoughts, truly I am.

My brother has a catastrophic head injury, like you I so wish I had been here then, it would have helped me greatly.

So pleased you and your ex hubby are friends, perhaps think on it, tis such a kind offer although I have someone in my family who, although invited to family each Christmas, so much prefers to be on their own, to listen to music, the Queen's speech, also prefers the peace and quiet. Still luvin her though. :))

I'm just thinking th, when you're in MK there are others on the boards who either live nearby or there, if I lived nearer I'd come visit you.

I wished i had come into this long time ago.

I tried and not let it control my life to much. Its something i am always going to have and not going to get any better.

So make most of good days i have. Keep on the move as will only lock up and will have to have everything done for me. Oh no not going to be there just yet if i can help it.

I have never been one to sit about to much, when weather is fine i get out if i can.

At least i know i will only be home for 8 days. then be back down,

My ex husband(we get on now living apart) has said i shouldnt be alone over christmas as with mum gone now. so said i can stay at his, BUT i dont know. As least it will be donw here.

My daughter lives with him so its where i stay when i come down anyway

It only be over the few days of christmas he be here rest of time be at work.
