AIBU to want to chat to people on here on a lonely Friday night!

Just that really.

I feel sad so I need to do something that would get me smiling and laughing

It's still mid afternoon and a gorgeous spring day here in New York.

Do you have anything planned with the kids this weekend?

Thanks @wineandpyjamas x

I love New York!!

I'm going to a family bbq on Sunday.

Prob hang out with my sister tomorrow!

@Simonfromharlow if i was alone and had the time i would go to the nearest beach and explore the coastline, nothing like fresh sea air to get you smiling,

Yes that sounds lovely!! Unfortunately I live in a rubbish small town with nothing going on!

@Simonfromharlow

I’m sure the local pub has a fine array of people in it....

Where would you go on holiday, with an unlimited budget for 3 weeks?

I love New York!!

That's great, so do I! Have a peak at this thread that was started by a Brit who's married a Yank and moved to NYC:

When did you get a chance to visit us?

It really doesn't hahaha

I've been over a few times @MissConductUS. The last time about 10 years ago! Always planned a trip with ex h but never happened!

Have a listen to this song:

it's lovely - I've just ordered the CD.

What are you doing tonight OP? I'm doing a spot of art in my garden.

I'm staying at my parents tonight! Nice bi of company! I will have a listen to the song!!

Hi 👋
What’s your name and where are you from?

I’ve just been rejected for a job. Actually the email was this morning but I’ve been avoiding looking at my inbox until now. Not sure I really wanted it but still feel deflated and a bit sad.

Just a silly thing, but go on to YouTube and look for the outtakes/bloopers for your favourite shows. Ricky Gervais ones are worthwhile just because of his laugh. It’s a good distraction for a while that you don’t need much brain power for and it makes you smile 😊

Will try that @ShitArmBadTattoo!!

I don't want to give my name but I'm from Essex. Not Harlow but not far away!

@Figmentofmyimagination aww that's a shame!! Don't get disheartened!!

YANBU I’ve been spouting off on here most of the evening since my DD has been in bed. DP are having some time apart to assess what we want in our lives so I’m alone a fair bit at the moment.

Regards the PM I’m concerned Boris May get in which would be horrific!

Yeah I really think he will. Very scary prospect.
