Hi Sammy and All

We lodged our visa in August and are up for a get together. Which part of the Gold Coast are people off to? Would be good to hear of others plans. We are heading to Brisbane with our two small boys. We went to the last Bromsgrove meet - did someone say there is another one planned for 4th November only I couldn't see anything on the Bromsgrove/Worcestershire thread.....

Cheers
Lindsay

Hi,
We fancy Robina, Reedy Creek looks really modern or the broadbeach area's, just see what our money will buy out there. We fancy building as hubby is a plumber and our agent is in the Gold Coast and her husband is a house builder and roofer and can introduce us to lots of English peps in the trade.

Hi Sammy,

Thanks for your reply. Lucky you having your visa, did it take long to come? We lodged ours 17/8 so we don't think we'll here anything for a while. We have our house on the market too - but still no viewers and it's been up over a month!!! The market is so slow at the moment, frustrating isn't it! We used to live up on the Notts/Derby border. We haven't researched many areas as of yet - my partner's job will probably be based in Brisbane so we'll look near to there so he doesn't have too far to commute. Let us know if you hear about the Bromsgrove meet...
Cheers
Lindsay

Hi Sammy

Hi,
I checked the last meet thread out but it mentioned peeps going to Adelaide so i left it. I will have a look at a map and see where is central for us if we aim towards mid Nov, weekend??

Anyone else??

BTW we are looking at Coomera, Helensvale etc so not far from where you are looking.
