We started of with Adelaide then had to apply to Victoria, they said no, went back to Adelaide with the SIR and they said yes.
So the place is Adelaide we dont care really as long as it's not here - ever since going there in 1994, and then living in New Zealand for 9 months in 2001, I just cant imagine living anywhere else really.
So looking forward to meeting new people - living out doors and completly changing my life.
Good night Linda

Jane has now organised 3 meets and they have all been great.

We live in Peterborough so it's only about an hour or so away.
I will let you know when we have some news.

Hope you have the same luck, what area are you from?

I am the impatient one out of me & my hubby Dave, and I would consider doing it earlier rather than later - but as a YES to the visa is not a guarantee I can see that there is an element of waiting.

Hiya
Good idea, would be good to meet up this side before you go, and then again on the other side in July.

We should definitely organise a meet up, but it would have to be in the next couple of weeks as we are moving out of our house on 10th March and staying with the in-laws down south.
Have never been to a meet up so what's the general idea? Go to a place at the weekend with kids or an evening without them?

Hi Martine
we normally go to a pub that does a bit of food, try to keep the kids occupied and have a good chat and a few
Let us know of some dates. We could meet up at Brewsters at Hampton or maybe you have something in mind.
Once we've arranged dates we'll post a new thread.

Would like to chat to anyone in the same situation, hopeful to go and live in Adelaide, or anyone that is already there, with a view to making this wait more enjoyable and help pass the time & meet new friends to go with our new life.
