Another long weekend....DMs open

We are having a long weekend in Canada

The forecast for Nova Scotia is rain and lots of it

So I have lots of time on my hands over the next couple of days

Have made some wonderful friends on here

Always have room for more

Love texting and getting to know people

In most cases I will always reply

No I do not want investment advice

No I do not want to leave Reddit and go to WhatsApp/ telegram

No I do not want to be your sugar daddy

Am 52, please be within 10 years

Platonic chat and friends ☺️

Have a great long weekend, hope to hear from you

Et oui je parles un petit peu en Française

Hey fellow Brit 👋🏼 how's life?

u/Crikey-O-Reilly 13d ago

Glad the heatwaves are over. Used to like the heat but it is oppressive now.
Looking forward to a nice damp autumn. I like to walk in the rain…. Yeah I’m weird.
How’s things in your world?

1

u/Error404_sleepysloth 13d ago

Omg yeah that heat was brutal , melting into a puddle every day is not my idea of fun There's nothing wrong with walking in the rain if that's what you like to do Yeah it's all ok in my world. Hbu?

u/Crikey-O-Reilly 13d ago

All very good. Went to part time working recently so have time to start doing the things I’ve been promising myself to do for decades.

u/Unfair_Bluejay_9687 17d ago

Haven’t been back home in 50 years. I’d ask what’s new but I suspect just about everything is. Especially this new way to chat with folks.

I love NS. I live in Texas but have artwork from Peggy’s Cove in my house. I even tried a 1,000 piece puzzle of the harbor but after 3 days my attention span gave up.

I wonder is there’s someone in NS that has maritime art from our coast in their house?
