Hi Carol
will be great to see you there, the more the merrier
Hi Rachel, I will more than likely be lunching as won't have a chance before hand, so you won't be on your own!
See you Saturday!

Hi Rachel and Alana!

Look forward to meeting you. I'll probably be up for a nibble too.

See you Saturday!

Hi Mel

I was out in Botany and Mascot this afternoon. Seems like a pretty nice area and the people were so helpful (am still totally clueless about the buses!).

Arh it's a pity you might not be able to make it on Saturday.
If it won't be too awkward for you if I send you my CV I'd love to get some feedback on it.

Hope to catch you soon!

Carol

Hi Carol,

What were you doing there? Botany and Mascot isn't as bad as what it used to be from what we've heard, they are regenerating the area etc. Have quite good discounted/factory shops down Botany Road.

I'll talk to my Mum and see if we can try and get down on Sat.

I'll Pm my work addie to you, and see what my colleagues think/if we have any contacts that we could float your resume across to.

Mel.

Hi Melly,

I will be in the same boat once I arrive in Sydney! I plan to Join my aussie boyf in January (sorry its not sooner) I would definately be interested in meeting up with you. I know how much I will miss my friends here, they are completely amazing and I'm scared that the hole will never be filled...

Where in the Eastern Suburbs are you living? I lived in Coogee. I actually met my boyf in Glebe almost 3 years ago in Oz... on my working holiday and getting wrecked with my mates every weekend-those were the days! I'm living in London at the moment and am frustrated that my man is half way accross the world but have to get some pennies in the bank first... its tough.

Keep in touch on pio-would love to have a wine or two with you once over.

Hi Sammy,

Good to hear from you.

January isn't far away - coming at a hot time as well!!! :0

I'm living with my Mum and Step Dad at moment in East Botany, moving in with my Aussie boyfriend who I met out here in January somewhere around the Eastern Surburbs - he is currently in Kingsford. Coogee is lovely - was there the other day out for dinner.

Where in London are you at the moment? I'm from NE London/Essex borders.

Where is your boyfriend living at the moment? How long have you been apart - must be hard. Are you coming out on a temporary spouse visa? What kind of work will you be looking for?

Sorry about the load of questions hahaha. I'm up for meeting definitely - just not sure if I will be able to make the current meet up planned this weekend.

Take care,

Mel.

Hi all

Just a quick note to everyone who's subscribed to this thread.

Since we've just had our first meet up and this thread is now getting a bit long, I thought it would be a good time to start a new thread (Sydney Girly Friends 2!) for us to organise our next meet up.

Hope everyone's enjoyed the weekend!

Hi Rachel,

How did the meet go? Wish I could have made it!!! Bit crap seeing as I was the one that started off the thread a few months ago and still haven't got any mates haha!

Let me know when you're planning on meeting again.

Mel

Hi Mel

Yes it went great thanks, it was good to finally meet a few people! Not to worry that you couldn't make it, I'm sure you had a good day!

We're going to use the new thread that I've started to organise the next meet, we thought it would be good to start a fresh one that way it won't be confusing for any new people who want to come along.

Not sure when it's going to be yet, we thought we'd maybe try and make it a monthly thing, possibly the last Saturday of each month. But we'll see what's good for everyone.

Hope you had a good weekend

Rach x
