Hi Kelly, thank you for a warm welcome! Yeah I saw that perth glory were ko'ed, other than the small snippets I've seen on TV, Aussie rules is still a little alien to me! We headed to the casino about a week ago under the illusion that the Chelsea Southampton game was on one of the big screens, but much to James disgust, it ended up on one of the smaller screens... Luckily really because they lost! So from that you can guess that he supports good old Chelsea... It always stirs up some banter, but he's a good sport and takes the good with the bad :-) What about you guys?
Hi Emma and Sam, kind of in the same situation as you in that James is 27 wishing he could (occasionally) jump back to his formative years (!) and having been here a couple of weeks we have real loose connections, you know the friends of friends of friends type, but they are a little older with tiddlers too which is lovely, but it would be nice to get to know some like minded people too.
It would be great to meet up, perhaps we can arrange a meet for all of us one evening/weekend if all are interested? I'm a little unsure where's good up north, so your suggestions would be great!
Lisa
