    It's not about pretending to believe in anything. It's about enjoying a book group or craft or attending a lunch club. You probably wouldn't catch sight of a vicar. They will be about their business.

    Let's nip this in the bud now please folks. You know any talk of religion always gets out of hand. Let's keep this friendly please. 😊

    It's getting that time of year isn't it @xodza. I'm hoping to get out for a little walk after work tonight if it's ok. I am quite looking forward to the cooler evenings though. Getting the fluffy socks and blankets out and the autumn pumpkin spice candles. 😊 And quite looking forward to the cheesy Christmas films as we get closer to winter.

    good morning to everyone not been able to get out for while but hopefully will get someone take me out today only to local post offices so probably only be out for around twenty minutes think when your illness affects your disability you don’t realise how much of your independence and getting out goes away unless someone can take you out

    good morning @xodza 😄

    That will be nice, hopefully they will be able to. Sometimes it doesn't matter how long its for, just being able to leave your house and being in a new environment can make you feel a bit better. What films have you been watching so far on your new movie channel you found?

    @Mary_Scope I like the Auroa teagarden movies on great movie channel like playing detective on who done the crime do you like watching movies and if do what watch yes does help get out even for short time can only go every few months as struggling with mobility and pain

    Ooo those sound really good @xodza, I haven't heard of those before but they sound right up my street as I really enjoy a good detective and whodunnit film and TV shows too! Which Aurora Teagarden film do you recommened to watch first?

    I do like watching films and I like lots of different types apart from romance, I don't really enjoy those as much! I've recently created a channel 4 account and they have lots of free films on there that i haven't seen before so i'm looking forward to have a look through there properly on the weekend😊

    Thank you for the recommendation, I will add them to the list @xodza. I will have to look at that great movie channel after work, it sounds great! One of my favourite films is Gone Girl, i thought that had a great storyline, have you seen that?

    Morning @xodza. The weather is awful here too. I'm glad I'm inside under a blanket 😊 What films do you think you'll watch? I watched Monsters Inc last night with my friend and we realised it's 24 years old!

    I always bang on about Netflix, sorry. 🙈 But I'm really impressed with their series and films and how frequently new ones are added, and the top 10's updated. It's very easy to find something new to watch. I recently binged Mayfair Witches (also available on BBC iPlayer and loved it. It's about a Witch who realises she has abilities as an adult and all is not what it seems with her family (don't want to give too much away) 😅

    Last night I watched "Anyone But You" which is a rom-com about a woman and man who absolutely hate each other but have to attend their mutual friends wedding weekend and it had me in absolute stitches. So if you fancy something silly and light hearted to pick you up, it's perfect. ☺️
