Hi Pollymarie

I'm from Australia but there are other Irish members here.
If you stay on this thread you'll soon get other replies - if it seems you're not, just refresh the page

Welcome aboard

Welcome, Polly!

This is a great forum to post and I know you will find lots of support here. I'm from Canada, but we have Irish members, too.

Welcome, Pollymarie. I am practically your neighbour in the UK.

How are you doing over there in Ireland today, neighbour?

Welcome to the family Polly. We have members all over the world. I've made so many friends here. And one member who just happens to live in my state, gave me a little cat five years ago - my Lily. So yes, good things happen on here.

SR also helped me get and stay sober. This December I'll have 10 yrs sober, and a huge part of the credit goes to the members here.

Lily the cat from an SR member? How absolutely lovely. An SR member recently said if I ever visited her country I should visit. It’s crazy but in a way we all seem like veterans from the same war. I’m glad we all made/are making it.

Polly, WELCOME!!!

Hey Polly! Welcome to Newcomers. You are definitely in the right place.

I'm across the water is Scotland ( the only place better than Ireland ) We are on the same time zone, so please feel free to get in touch. It's always nice to know there are people close xx

Hello and welcome, Polly. I’m just over the water in the U.K. It’s a great international community here, with one common goal!

Welcome Polly. Irish heritage, but an Aussie. Scope the different threads in the Newcomer's forum. A good place to start might be joining the Class of October 2019 group. I joined the Class of March '16 group, where I post most days- and learn and consider the people there as friends.
