Changes to the online community and its team

Hello everybody,
You might have seen some new Scope names floating about the community in recent weeks. This is because the online community team has expanded to included @Cher_Scope, @Ross_Scope and @Tori_Scope as our new community co-ordinators.
As well as us having new members of the team, the online community will also be extending the hours in which it's 'manned'.
A member of the community team will be available from 8am to 8pm on weekdays and from 10am to 6pm on weekends. Outside of these hours, if you see any content that you feel breaches the community guidelines or makes you concerned about the welfare of the poster, please report this using the 'flag' and 'report' function at the bottom of the post and a member of the team will review it out of hours.
Please join me in welcoming our new members of the team!

I agree with your comments as I have found this online community to be very supportive, helpful and nonjudgmental😁

Thank you very much😁
I’m so glad I came across this wonderful online community.
As I previously said, I was actually shocked to come across so many wonderful people who actually want to help each other instead of harming each other 😁
As many of you will know I have had some really bad experiences because of being bullied and harassed at work which has resulted in PTSD, so finding a community that actually cares has really helped me😁
I have been able to talk to people on this online community about all of my disabilities (Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoarthritis and PTSD), gardening, television programmes, wildlife etc😁
There is a wealth of knowledge within this online community which people are willing to share in order to make a difference to someone’s ife😁
Do you know how happy I feel if someone posts a reply to something I have said or someone likes one of the photos of my little squirrel friends?
The answer is that it makes a huge difference to me after years of being “an afterthought” especially at work. It is really horrible when I know I can do my job but I am seen as nothing but an afterthought😞
At least here I have had the chance to try to help others (and I am not saying that anything I say actually helps, but I do try to help) which I actually like doing unlike at work where my views are usually ignored and I don’t feel valued there.
The fact that so many people want to support each other is like a breathe of fresh air😁

I actually feel welcome here and it is so upsetting and frustrating that many people are very dismissive because someone is disabled.
May your God go with you 🙏
So I decided to get myself a cheap 5 string banjo ....and I have not put it down since ( I really enjoy learning it especially as we are in isolation a year next month ) I am now learning clawhammer banjo as well ...its taking a long time but I,m getting there with it , especially bluegrass style .
I played in a band for 20 years ( I think that is partly what caused my hearing loss ) 🙄😣... I also play flute , harmonica , penny whistle , bohdran and I can knock a tune out of an accordion .
Yep , the people on this site are so friendly and also very helpful ....I used to volunteer for anything that needed done in the village , alas , I am not able to do so and I miss helping people ...I got a buzz out of volunteering for many years after the government closed all the factories, foundries and pits in our area .
I could do with a sing song right now 👍🙂
Do you play any instruments Shezz ??
I think I would freeze up as well , giving bags of money away 🤔😮🙂
It was handy you having a good friend in the SAA Shezz.
You sound like a well travelled lady . I was in the USA a few years back ( Florida) with my family ( most of my family but my grandson is severely autistic and my daughter stayed home to look after him ....if he could have flown we would have all been there.).
We really enjoyed it ( 9 of us). Three weeks in a big villa in the sun....Amazing ! ( It cost an arm and a leg and certainly a "one off" for us) my sons and their families have been back to Florida ...but ...of course last summer, my youngest son and his family were ready to go again to Florida...but the covid 19 virus stopped that ...my family all work hard and I hope they can all get a holiday later this year....but it does not look to promising .🙄
Please take care out there Shezz 👍🙏
