Re: does anyone meet up in rockingham
Hi,we are in South Fremantle, which is very close to Rockingham.
We've been here 4 weeks now and enjoying it. Although that's probably because we aren't working yet; have just started applying for jobs. I'm a nurse and my other half is in IT. What about you?

We have been in Rockingham about 7 weeks and would be happy to meet up. Haven't got jobs yet so daytime or evening. Happy to help anyone new to the area if we can.
