Gold Coast Arrivals List


Guest EM&M

Recommended Posts

Hello all, I thought that it might be good to have an arrival list for those already in or heading for the gold coast. I thought that as we arrive we could arrange a meet up for new arrivals to help us all settle in. Anyone interested??

 

If you would like to participate plesae leave your details as follows and I will keep updating the list. If you dont have a specific date just estimate, also can put reccie dates on too.

 

Here goes:

bvgEMMA&MICHAEL (+2 GIRLS 2YRS & 7MTHS) ARRIVING AUGUST 2007 ISH :jiggy:

Hi,

Hopefully we will be arriving 1/12/07, just waiting for the house sale to go through, surveyor has just been out he said should be no probs and the buyer is a first time buyer so hopefully should only take 6-8 weeks.

 

We will be staying at southport for the first couple of weeks in short term accommodation, we are looking at possibly settling in pacific pines/ coomera/coomera waters, any info on these areas would be welcome.

 

I am 34 a nurse, oh 35, daughter millie 5, son Harry, 4.

 

cheers

Hi , what a great idea. We are hoping to move out to Cleveland in April 08 and would love to meet up from people from home. There is myself (Adele) my husband Mike and our 2 children, Nathan who will be 7 and Mia who will be 2 (not looking forward to taking her on the flight. In the mean time I would love to hear from anyone who fancies a chat as it keeps me focused if I can keep making friends and gaining answers to my many questions I won't chicken out and stay in the UK.:jiggy:

What a cracking idea. Looks like most of us are in that same 'petrified but dead excited' world (we've even got the comfort of some family in Alex Hills but we're still petrified!!) so what a way to ease settling in.

 

We are me Lawrence (Lol for short - knocking on a bit now at 38), 'er indoors (Sarah, 35), Kiera (3 with attitude, attitude & more attitude but a real cracker still in there somewhere) and Mat (1 and currently taking attitude lessons from the one above!).

 

Looking at moving over towards middle of next year and we've a reccie organised for March. We like Alex Hills area (incl Wellie Point, Cleveland and Viccie Point) but also like Sunshine coast and have been looking at the coomera area to - so much choice eh!!

 

Be great to meet up in due course.

 

Cheers

Bu**er Nat, we'll probably walk past you in the airport! We will be going back to the UK that day - hopefully the last 'return ticket' ever!

Catch up with you in Jan when we arrive for good though!

We are are both pleased to say now have our visas, can not wait to be out there.

 

we are visiting for the most of December 07 into early Jan to get more of a feel for the place and make our future plans, so if any one fancies meeting up.

 

Unfortunataly we have no kids so its just the two of us, mid 30's couple.

 

Please let us know if you have any meetings or if anyone else wants to meet over the holiday party.
