Does anyone live South of London?
« on: April 19, 2004, 03:33:31 PM »
I live in Chinnor, which is a small village about an hour from London. I was wondering if anyone lived closer than London to me. I would love to met up with someone close by to do things with once in a while. I just get so lonesome for an american friend that understands what I feel.  :'( 

I am going to go to work soon and am very anxious.  Still haven't got my name changed on my passport or social security. No health number or work number or anything. I just get anxious about doing these things.  I do fine when my husband is around but find myself immobiled sometimes when he is working and then I feel  guilty that I haven't done anything. Would just be nice to have someone close to go have coffee with and be of encouragement.  Of course I would encourage you and be there for you too. Is there anyone out there?

I guess you can see I am feeling finda low today. Even a chat buddy would be nice.

Well, I'm not south of London, but I'm still available for a chat from time to time!  :-)  We all understand what you're feeling--it's wonderful to be with the person you love, and so exciting to move to a new country, but it's also a very lonesome experience sometimes.  If you need help getting anything (NIN numbers, registering w/ a surgery, etc.,) everyone here will be glad to help!  :-)

How easy is it for you to get a train to Reading? A few of us are meeting up (some with, some without partners) at Chilis near the train station at the Oracle. Sat, May 22 at 6pm. See "Meeting and Events"...should be a great time!

Chinnor is one of those little London villages/burbs that's actually hard to get to Reading via train (you have to go thru London or Oxford) but maybe Kitty doesn't mind driving?
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

oh my husband can drive us.  He is out for a dinner meeting tonight but I will ask him to check his diary when he gets home. It isn't that far a drive and he already told me he would like to go to one of the meetings sometime. :) Would be real nice to meet some people. Reading is not that far at all.
