      Cool Meeting new people........

      Hello & Merry Xmas to you all

      Won't go into too much detail atm, but just a quick post to see if there's any families NOR that would like to meetup & make friends.
      We're a happily married couple living in Woodvale, NOR. I'm self employed (so pretty flexible) & hubby works fulltime just out side the city. We have 4 children 2 girls & 2 boys
      (ages from 15yrs to 3yrs) We manage to balance our lives very well between spending time as a family & also as a couple. We've been living here, since leaving the UK for just over 3yrs & we love it ! We've made afew really good friends along the way...mainly from S.Africa & North England.

      However, you can never have too many friends. It would be fantastic if we could meet some people from our neck of the woods - South England who are now like us, living here permanently NOR!

      Do please feel free to contact us anytime.

      Happy New Year

      Jules, Kev & Gang
      What's meant for you......won't go past you!! (Yipeee - 137skilled STNI granted Apr 08) Arrived in Perth mid July 08 (If you don't LOVE IT, Leave it!)

      Hi Guy's,

      We're newbies to Perth, arrived early December 2011 and have been enjoying every minute so far. We're lucky in that we met quite a few families via Pomsinoz meets back in the uk and have kept in touch with them all. All of them live NOR too so we've already met up with most of them. We're always up for meeting new peeps, in fact we we're down your way in the Woodvale Tavern the other day with friends. We've no kids but up for meeting new peeps all the time, if you fancy a meet up just pm me and we can arrange. All the best

      Hi Jay/Bev, Not sure what Kel and I are doing for Aussie Day just yet, send us a post or message when you arrive and hopefully by then something should be arranged. PS You'll love Joondalup, very nice we love it around there and haven't really explored all around there yet.

      Hi Jamie/Lorna n babs, Are you already here in Aus and if so where are you at?

      Ah ok, we're in Butler at the mo staying with friends, not decided where we'll settle just yet, depending on work and commute times etc. How long have you guys been here?

      Hi Lorna, blimey so your newbies too then lol what does Jamie do for his fifo? Funny enough we was in Perth CBD today having a few at the Lucky Shag Watefront Bar and we got talking to a guy and his dad from Banksia Grove, fellow poms, dad over visiting, the son has been here five years already, seemed a decent guy so we exchanged numbers. Might be a good contact for you as him and his family are in the same place. We'll pretty much talk to and get on with anyone and so far everyone we've met has been great. Our friends know people who've gone back to the uk just because they found it hard to meet people, we found straight away that if your willing to get out there, talk to peeps and make the effort peeps appreciate it and will help where they can.
