Guest celta Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Hi, i've recently moved to Melbourne permanently to live with with my Aussie boyfriend. Loving Melbourne and have plently of Aussie friends but would really love to meet some fellow Poms before I lose my english accent forever. Plus I miss the cynical British humour and endless chats about the weather!! I live near St Kilda so surely there must others about?? Look forward to hearing from them Celia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
