Hi Laurie, nice to meet you, in which part of the world do you live, I'm in Bristol, UK, Jenny
Jenny I live in lower Michigan USA. Nice to meet you!
Thank you for sharing this posting with us, Laurie. Glad you’re here with us. I’m Leah.😀👍🌈
Hi Leah! Great to put a name to the online handle!
How's your day going, Laurie? I'm in the Maryland area (USA). 
I’m at lunch I’m working. I work at a large plant nursery. It’s hot and sunny here
Wow! I have a coworker who also works in a flower shop/nursery and she puts flowers together in pots for the holidays. I haven't seen her for almost 5 months (she works with me away from the flower shop).
Sorry to hear it's really warm. Today, the temps. here are upper 80's into the low 90's. Mother Nature seems to have trouble making up her mind about if we are going to have thunder and lightning, or stay nice and sunny.
I'm creating the new BRAINWORKS posting for tomorrow. Hope to have it done by 2 pm today. Will see!
The plant business here had been incredibly busy this season. A lot of bored people hanging out at home😂😂😏
That’s great being busy!😀👍🌈🌷

Hi Di! It must be nice to live near the coast. From what I’ve seen in pictures on this website all of the English countryside is beautiful.

We can see cruise ships from our lounge windows and America’s cup boats practising. We are so lucky.
Hi Laurie I'm Jo and I live in Cardiff and have an extremely spoilt elderly ginger tabby called baby who is 16!

You’ve posted pictures of him/her I think. My last cat before Angie lived to 21. The older ones are real snugglers I’ve found.
Hi Laurie, nice to meet you. 😀🌸
Likewise. There are so many kind people in this group and lots of gardeners and animal lovers. Right up my alley!
Yes Welcome Laurie, and thank you for giving us your Name. A lot of us Do know, each others, Real Names. Though sometimes, some of us Do get them Wrong (🥴).
I always, just called myself, AndrewT both, on here, and other 'Forums'/ 'Groups'. I won't 'Chat', too much, tonight but I will 'Talk' more soon.
AndrewT
Hi AndrewT! I waited to answer so it wouldn’t be so late in the U.K. I’ve been overwhelmed by all the kind responses. I have been on for quite a while but just felt that a lot of us were on a first name basis so I’d join the group! Will be glad to hear from you!
Hi Laurie
Welcome and thank you for your lovely introduction.
Alicia🙏😊🌈

Hello Alicia! Just waited to reply this morning due to the time difference. Thank you for your kind words!
Hi Laurie! This really is a lovely site, is it not? Very interesting to find out members' names! I too am Laurie! Good name 
xx
Hi fellow Laurie and it’s even spelled the same way! My parents had a disagreement over Laura and Laurel so settled on Laurie as a compromise 😄😄😄
Hey Laurie...its good to know you,i live near Bristol UK....and my name is Roddy.
Hi Roddy from Bristol! Nice to meet you!
BrentWArtist
Hi Laurie. My name is no secret. Nice to meet you.
Hi Brent. It is pretty obvious isn’t it. Nice to meet you anyway!
Hi Laurie, my name is Janet I'm afraid I don't contribute very much to this site but find the information given by others really interesting and helpful I hope you do to. I live in the Midlands and hope things settle down soon so we can all enjoy a visit to our City of Culture (Coventry) next year which is quite near to where I live. Janet
Hi Janet! First reply from someone who says they are from the midlands. You should post some pictures of the local countryside. It’s a treat for me to see some of the local scenery in the U.K. It gives me a better feel for the country than you get on the news. Are you a gardener?
A very good day to you Laurie, l am Tim.
I always feel that it is more personal, even if it is just your your first name. Much better than a load of letters and numbers!
It even does not need to be your real name.
Good to meet you anyway, best wishes, Tim.
Thank you Tim. I stopped answering yesterday because of the time difference. It would have been much to late in the U.K. 🙂
Hi Laurie, my name is Patricia, people on this site are so kind and helpful and make dreadful jokes. I live on the South Coast, outside of Portsmouth.
Hello Patricia! Don’t you love the awful jokes? Especially Bazzaks. I’ve heard from another South Coaster. If you run thru the replies you’ll find her.
Hi Laurie,
My rule is always that if someone ends with their 'real' name, then I feel comfortable to address them by that name. So I'm delighted to learn your name and I'll try to use it in future. (Please forgive me if I sometimes forget.)👍😊
Gillyflower18• in reply to
No problem. Either way I’ll be happy to hear from you!
Hey! Nice to meet you Laurie. Glad you’re here with us. 🙂
Hi Laurie again, I introduced myself earlier..... I live in Gravesend, Kent, Uk.
Gravesend has the honour of being the burial place of the native American.......Pocahontas...... have a nice day my lovely.
Don. 😀🌈🌹👍
I didn’t know that Don. You never know what you’ll learn!
Hi Laurie! Welcome to the group. I don’t post a lot either but have found a lot of information regarding our illness. It is such a supportive and caring group. You can usually meet up with someone that has the same Mets as you and the same treatments and side effects. So comforting 💕
Wishing you all the best too.

Hi Laurie, nice to meet you. My name is Nelly and I live in Virginia (USA). Summer is coming to an end here. Oh how I 💘 summer! Its my favorite season. I enjoy cycling and will have cycled one thousand miles by Thursday, then I will go back to walking for the Fall months.
I am thankful for this support group and kind people like yourself who would take the time to introduce themselves.
Wishing you the best! Nelly
Hello Nelly! Sounds like you lead an active life! I agree that there are a lot of great people on this website and I really enjoy reading and contributing.
