flag of convenience Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Last one (meeting) failed to get off the ground. So good luck with the numbers. Although with time in Perth you'll likely see error in your way towards wanting to whinge and nullify the meet up anyway........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 I'd be interested in a meet up for whinging poms in Perth, where and when? Also been here 4 years, we've finally got ourselves on our feet I looked around and thought 'is this it?' 'Is this the life we've been working hard to achieve?' 'The beach', 'BBQ's' and 'swimming in a backyard pool' 'I gave up a full and rich life for THIS!' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flag of convenience Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 A not too uncommon thought. Somethings can't be bought. Well work on the numbers and perhaps look at a city meet for starters? I'll see what I can do...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't really want it posting in here Ali, in case it got 'Pom bashed' ;o). I thought that if i just posted in the Returning to The UK section then it would only be viewed by 'like minded peeps' ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 It's about getting together ... so it should go in this forum (MBTUK is open to everyone anyway so would have got the same responses). Get in touch with admin to join the private returning to UK forum, but as flag said, someone else tried to organise out for those disenchanted with living here, but it didn't come off which was a shame really - I hope this one comes off for you all.

flag of convenience Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Not a lot of success gathering further recruits then? Seems to be the nature of things in this fair city. It may take some brave soul to name a date ......keep updating(bumping up) and see where we go. I'd go as far as to suggest anyone welcome from new arrivals to converts .......at least for the initial meet.....factons can made from that.......lol......

Sydney rocks while Perth sleeps.......but I'm a little concerned, how did you get up at 5am in order to do your morning exercises in order to make you productive at work during the day....here out west it's rather a big deal for a number of folk.........

Debabrown Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Hi My OH and I are in North Perth and moved over from the UK just over a year ago. We would love to meet up, probably like you guys we have found it hard to meet new people. We are in our 40's and had a great social life in the UK and are missing just meeting up for a drink with friends. Let me know if there any dates in the diary coming up :-) Debbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
