Brisbane and surrounds, meet up 10th November
 

OK, here goes - I am going to attempt to arrange a meet up!! :eek:

We are Rob 34 and Caroline 27. We have been in Oz for 4 weeks now and have settled into a lovely unit in Redcliffe, just North of Brisbane. The only thing missing is a social life! :(

We would love to meet up with others in the same boat for a drink and a chat.....

We are open to ideas on where and when but thought that for a starters, a Sunday would be good!

As a suggestion, Redcliffe itself is fab on a weekend. Beaches and parks a plenty and generally a nice place to 'get away from it all'!

So...who's up for it?

Have you visited the Belvedere, Woody Point - we've had a few meets there, good food, beer, atmosphere, OK for kids - perhaps try for somehting there soon....

Hi,

We haven't been to any meets but I know that there is another lot of expats that meet in the Pig and Whistle pub (Eagle Street Pier) in the city every month or so. If you type Brisbane British Club into google it should come up.

Have fun!

Try and avoid the weekend when some Scottish bloke is having a meet down the Gold Coast though :D

No chance you can make it a Saturday instead of Sunday. Can't have a good sesh if I have to get up for work on the Monday :( Not that I ever drink much anyway ;)

Haven't you heard of the ancient Aussie tradition "the Sickie"........a game usually played on Monday mornings......:D

Hmmmm, seems like there is some interest after all! :)

Was holding off responding in case no-one else did! :rofl:

OK, folks.......

Lets make it, the weekend after Soapy's bash in GC on the 27th - the Saturday is good. How's that sound?

Open to all suggestions on a location - obviously somewhere kiddy friendly would be good. :eek:

Let us know your thoughts........
