Hi Allicat,

We are in Lethbridge, moved here 7 months ago and loving it, give us a nudge if you fancy meeting up while you are here. Also just holler if you have any questions.

Hope you enjoy your stay in the windy city.

Lorraine

Thanks for all the well wishes guys

It's all abit unreal really can't believe we are actually here.

Is anyone free today to meet up in Lethbridge?

My OH has a number of employers he has to call to sort out where and when to meet them but is feeling a bit like a fish out of water and could do with some advice.

Enjoy Lethbridge, if you have time, you might also want to visit medicine hat, house prices are slightly cheaper, crime is lower as are the utilities bills, we have the most sun in Canada and its definatly not as windy. What does your OH do for work? I have quite a few contacts in the Oil n Gas industry who I would be more than happy to put you in contact with and you are only an hour and a bit down the road.

Hope you have a great time out here.

Regards

HH

Default Re: Woo Hoo Finaly Made it

Crime isn't lower in Med Hat, property here in Leth is VERY reasonable, and we have a very vibrant little city with lots going on for families. We are also close to Calgary and the BC border.

Alicat Lorraine will give you my number!

Totally agree Mrs Miggs, Lethbridge is fab, Medicine hat is good to visit, but i Love lethbridge, the people are friendly and so much to do and see, best bit is deff being so close to the rockies, calgary, and the US border.
