ClaireLW Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 There must be at least one or two? lol i work long hours and don't have any hobbies so find it difficult meeting new people like I did in the UK. if this sounds like you, are maturing slightly too, and maybe feel like swapping tips and stories on life in Brissy please get in touch I have been through the whole visa cycle if you have any questions about that too cheers, Claire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in my late fourties but by no mean's do I look it lol..hubby was 50 last year, we love to go out restaurants, BBq's, outdoor stuff and just enjoy life really. I am visiting Brisbane next week for a look around to see what we think about the area etc Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaireLW Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 Hi there, sorry for late post, I had replied but don't think it worked, will keep this short just in case it doesn't either lol. you are lucky to be moving potentially to north lakes, you are probably here by now and it's a good choice. Not many English where I live, Redcliffe, and less amenities, not to mention hassle getting into the city, where I work. How long are you staying for? IKEA and the rail link are coming to north lakes, which will improve the area even more for sure. Anyway let me know if you have any other things you want to know. I moved here 7 years ago, met my husband, who is Aussie and stayed. He is great for local info which was a massive help when I first got here. You can PM me if you like, must be easier to discuss the finer details! Being early 40s we don't go out that much, but nice when we do, Redcliffe is improving no end since the days of 'Deadcliffe' Cheers, claire Hi there, myself and hubby looking to move to North Lakes, we live in NSW at the moment.

stamples Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Hi Claire! we're also a Redcliffe Peninsula based, child free married couple who work substantial hours and commute to Brisbane too - if I can figure out how to send you a private message, will do, if not maybe send me one and we'll be able to communicate and maybe meet up.
