I work in a hospital, full time, but with shifts I can be around a bit in the day. I've only lived here for 3 yrs. I don't have a dog! What else was I meant to say? Look forward to meeting some of you when it's warm!! Suex

Hi Heather, not far from me then, well i think we should wait till the weather is abit warmer, but I think it ll be nice to meet up after getting to know each other, I m a community care worker so my hours are all over the place, could be mornings evenings and weekends. Anyway look forward to getting to know my neighbours : ) Penny

Afternoon i am from bournemouth dorset married three children, one granddaughter with another grandperson on the way, two black labradors i work full time in a firm of solicitors in christchurch dorset dealing mainly with wills probate and elderly clients a local meet sounds wonderful if we can arrange it - a walk sounds nice, i am in my late 40's big birthday later this year! hevi

Well we have some time to play it by ear, I have a dog so a walk could be one idea, depending on the ages and abilities of those willing to meet up. I ll try and get to know those on here from the area and take it from there. Not sure how old you are but I m in my 30 s (and thats all i m saying)
