Guest GillMac Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Hi All, Great to find this today ! Craig and I moved out here in January from Glasgow and are living in Williamstown. We are both in our mid-thirties with no kids and whilst we are a bit over the clubbing stage now, we would love to meet up with others for drinks, dinners, bbqs etc. It would be great to say hello .... :biggrin: Gill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're living in Surrey Hills - can get just about anywhere pretty easily (c: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mr and Mrs Smith Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Hi all, My wife and i have been here now for three months and we are enjoying the aussie way of life. We are both in our early 30's with no kids and living in the Carnegie area. We would love to meet up for a beer and chat. Never done this before so not sure what to do next?

Angelini Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Well, it looks like there are quite a few of us who would like to meet for a drink and a chat ... I think someone just needs to organise it! I've got a job interview (first one in Oz!!) on Thursday so I can't really think about anything else, but I'll try to get a few options together this weekend - unless someone beats me to it :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest scottish shell Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Hey Everyone... This sounds really great, My hubby and I are from Bathgate, as I mentioned before we have been here only a few weeks lol. We are living in heidelberg so the same goes in relation to accesibility . Think the city would possibly be better for everyone as a meet up, ?? Any suggestions. Im going to sit n have a glass of wine and chill after a hard shift...hope you are all doing good,and hubby n I hope to be sharing our wee drinking sessions with new friends soon. OH ps...Good luck with the interview ..let us know how it goes :jiggy: Michelle N Ivan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Revs30 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Just had an idea. We (myself 32, wife 33, son 3, daughter 1) are moving to Melbourne from the UK first week in June. Why don't we set a facebook page up for Poms in Melbourne? That way we could all chat/facebook each other which could be easier for people like me with the app on their phones. Good/Bad Idea????? Let me know :smile: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mr and Mrs Smith Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Well i am not that familar with pubs in Melbourne city centre but have googled british pubs and come up with The sherlock holmes pub (http://thesherlockholmes.com.au/). Seems fitting as we are all poms that our first meet should be there! We are around on Sunday afternoon this weekend if that is good with anyone else. So could meet at say 3pm for a few beers and chat? Anyone fancy that? Thanks Arran and Rachel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mr and Mrs Smith Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Hi all, If people cannot make this weekend as it is quite short notice and also people may not check this regulary then why don't we set the meet for next weekend - Date: Sunday 17th April Time: 2pm Venue: Sherlock Holmes Pub (The Sherlock Holmes Inn - Melbourne Pub. Collins Street) in Melbourne city centre? How does this sound to everyone? Reply back with thoughts or confirmations and hopefully we can all have a few beers and good laugh!!
