Guest mags2000 Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Hi My family are in the Eastern suburbs and wondered if there are any Poms nearby for the odd night out? We've been here almost a year but work colleagues aren't very sociable and as we're in out 40's, we're not into the nightclub scene in the city...:no: That said, the odd night out or night in with some company once in a while would be great and something to look forward to! So anyone of a similar mind please get in touch.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mags2000 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Hi Thank you for responding. Steve and I are in Wantirna....not far. So how are you finding it or is it me being too sensitive? I find it a little family intensive at presentand although I love them dearly a little alternative company added to the mix would be welcome!

Hi Sarah I'm not there yet but looking at moving to Melbourne down from Sydney late 2013 into the eastern burbs likely so would be interested in keeping in contact n maybe picking yr brains a bit about local area etc if that's ok. I am also in yr age brackets tho it pains me to admit with 3 children. Only one of which will need schooling by that point. thx Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest kitkat37 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Hi there! Just wondered if you guys still catch up? To my shame I've been here for nearly 10 yrs and, although have made lots of Aussie friends, it would be good to meet up with some fellow Poms for some reminiscing! I'm in Ferntree Gully so nearby kirsty x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaraWood Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Hi Kirsty Yes we meet yesterday, at the Acorn. I'll let you know when we are going next time and hopefully you'll be free to join us. So where in UK are you from? Sara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
