tiff82 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Hi all, We're in Redcliffe, Brisbane and are looking for friends to meet and eventually to do family day trips, card nights, drink nights and to basically just to hang out with, lol. We're 32 and 38 and have a 2 year old girl and 4 year old boy. We both work a lot and have always seemed to be busy and haven't really stopped to make friends as such, now a few years of being in Australia has gone by and we'd like to have friends to do bbq's with, etc. We're both originally from London and have been in Australia approximately 6 years. Hope to speak soon. Oh and we're pretty normal and down to earth, although the kids seem like they're from a different planet sometimes lol.

PatW Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Hi KatyMac We used to be 'down the road' in Banbury. And which spring do you mean: Australian (Sept-Nov) or UK (March-May)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatyMac Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Oops sorry I meant oz spring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatW Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Hello KatyMac Keep in touch then, because there'll be another get-together about Sept/Oct and you'd be very welcome. We did it a few years ago, knowing nobody and it can be a scary/frustrating/tiring start to your new adventure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
