Guest Hazel13 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Hi all my name is Hazel, I've been in Brisbane for about 18 months after moving from England, but haven't really made any close friends. I moved over here for my partner, however we recently broke up and i'm finding i'm at a loose end...a lot. would love to meet up for coffee, drinks or adventures to explore this city / state Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherbetdip23 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Hi Hazel Sorry to hear about you and your parnet :-( Whereabouts are you? Are you actually right in Brisbane? I am in Coomera Waters so may be a bit far if you are right in Brissie. Carla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hazel13 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Hi Carla Thanks that's kind, i'm right in Bris yes, I work in the valley. I'm not even sure where Coomera Waters is! Hazel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del Boy84 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Hi Hazel. Am in the same boat as you. Moved here at the end of January from scotland and finding it a little hard at times to settle in cause of the social life isn't the greatest here. If you fancy chatting I'll give you my facebook details, thats if you have facebook that is. anyway you can let us know. Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whopperdaisy Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Hi Hazel, If you are on Facebook, try finding the group called The Brisbannittes (pretty sure they spelled it that way) - a big group of poms who get together every month or so, plus lots of smaller groups meeting up for coffee, girls night out etc. I am in a similar situation except I have a child as well, I find it quite isolating sometimes and between here and Brisbannittes, I have been rescued a few times from becoming a complete hermit. Feel free to PM if you like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irishbabe Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Hi Hazel I have moved here nearly 2 months ago and know very few people. I could meet up with you sometime for drinks, coffee or some sightseeing. I'm based close to Brisbane city. I do like it here. Be nice to get to know a few more people here though.

My husband and I are moving to Brisbane at the start of next year - we are currently in Sydney - so will be looking to meet people as we don't know anyone up there!
