Guest roymoody Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Well after a couple of years in the planning we finally got our visa through earlier this year and will be visiting Perth as part of our "validation" visit for about 3.5 weeks arriving on the 23/10. It all seemed like a great idea at the start but now we have the option of actually starting a new life in Perth its all got awfully scary! (I'm sure many of you were the same) ...so I thought why not arrange a get together with a few people living in Perth to get the real good and bad views on Australian life ... Do you fancy a few beers and a BBQ with us on the 29th or 30th Oct in Kings Park? I wasn't sure what would be the best date as I didn't know if people tend to do certain things on a Saturday or Sunday over there (I know we are very busy on a Saturday in the UK but Sundays tend to be quieter) All children obviously welcome too. If you could make it for a couple of hours let me know which date is best and I'll try and get something more formal organised on here Regards Roy (aged 41 3/4) ...Mandy (42), Scarlet (9), Will (8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sandisonsonthemove Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Hi Roy For your information there is a BBQ meet been arranged already for Sunday 30th October at Kings Park. Saturday is no good as apparently Queen Lizzie is over there for the weekend and she is doing some big BBQ thing in Kings Park so best stay away from the city! If you are on FB you can join a group called Aussie Friends and it is arranged on there. We arrive on Friday 28th Oct and should be there notwithstanding jet lag!!!
