Socialising & Get TogethersIf you're looking to meet up with like minded people emigrating to Oz or want to arrange an event in Oz, please post details here.
Well, here goes.
Been on this site for a while and been tempted to suggest a meet up for those of us considering a life down under and currently living in the beautiful Westcountry.
We are in the Plymouth area of Devon, but happy to meet at the most convinient place for all interested.
We are off to Oz on a rekkie in just over 2 weeks, so thinking of mid July/Aug time.
Be really good to hear from anyone else down here that would like to meet up. A family event of course, so those of us with big/small kids need to think of some family friendly options for the meet

well I'm interested Sandra, but we live in North Devon. Might be a bit of a trek even to meet half way? See what responce you get! I do think the having a meet would be great idea, seems to work really well in other areas! Keep in touch!
Keep us posted. We're in Liskeard and consist of myself, OH Andrew, Charis 11, Josiah 9 and Daniel 4. Hope you enjoy your reccie. We did last October/November! We're also August applicants but still waiting.

Hi Sandra, I'm sure you will get a great response from people, it only take one person to start the thread...........
But, in saying that, i'll keep an eye on this post if you don't mind, because Mr KP's sister lives in Cornwall, and we will be coming to see her sometime in August.
Good luck
KP Nuts

Thanks for the response.
I'm sure there must be more of us in darkest Devon/Cornwall.
Anyway, for those of us so far, does anyone have any thoughts on where they would like to meet?

I can't believe there are so few people in the Devon area wanting to emigrate!! There must be more that fancy a get together??
Yes, where are you all?!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Although in fairness, it is a fab place to live so I guess everyone is too busy out enjoying our lovely sunny weather at the mo
Of course, not so fab that I am not looking forward to our adventure and big move
