I am from Preston but unfortunately I don't live on the Gold Coast! If you are ever in Sydney let me know, would be great to discuss North End's push for Premiership glory...again!

Dave says we should be in the premiership next season all being well. Hope one day to visit Sydney for New Year to watch the excellent fireworks display.

Yes - we left one son in New Zealand so we know how you feel. However he is doing really well and we keep in touch via skype and everything is working out ok. We buy him a flight over each year for the summer break, and its a great catch up time for all of us.

Hello, I'm in Brisbane but originally from Blackburn, Lancashire. Can still detect a Northern accent from about 100 feet and still love hearing it - and so many poms are moving to Qld now it happens quite a lot :D

Hi Guys

We are from Kendal about 45 mins from Preston, we were hoping to move to Robina in September this year, but with all the changes happening at the mo its looking doubtful, one minute we were on the CSL next minute we were gone!!! We have now applied for State Sponsorship so fingers crossed that comes through and we can hopefully meet up in January (if things go to plan this way!!!)

How you liking it..?

Julie & Paul :D
