I've been browsing the forums and you seem a nice bunch, so thought I would introduce myself.

I'm 61 (how did that happen?) and live in London with my partner of 20+ years and a daft black cat. My two sons, now in their 30s, live nearby. No grandchildren, but hopefully that doesn't exclude me from being here!

I work in the City as an Office Manager which I really enjoy and I'm hoping will see me out until retirement. I don't feel ready to stop working just yet. smile

Anyway, hello all! Sho.

Hello. We were feeling sorry for people who work in offices in London in this heat. The tube must be unbearable! Glad you enjoy your work though. Have a good day.

Luckily my office has very efficient air conditioning (too efficient at times as I often need to add a layer). Also, luckily again, I don't need to use the tube (just a short journey on the overground). Otherwise I would be complaining, as I really hate this heat! angry

Welcome Shoshana. May I suggest the daily Good Morning and Soop's Kitchen threads for getting to know the regulars, but be warned, GN can be a time waster addictive! smile

Good morning Shoshana I hope you will like it.
I am in London too, and my goodness it is hot here just now am wishing I was by the sea.
There is a variety of things to talk about on here it seems and a lot of games to play.

Welcome Shoshana the site is brilliant there's so much help and advice if needed.
A great bunch of very worldly wise posters with fantastic sense of humour.
Certainly kept me sane during lockdown.Following people's daily posts give insight into what's out there if you make the effort
Haven't found anything yet that you cannot get help with.
Very addictive.
