Default Friends in Melbourne

Having a bad day today, feeling a bit lost and lonely and thought I would post! We've been here 2.5 years and are doing OK on the work mates front, as well as the odd person/couple to have a drink with but can't seem to find anyone to be proper friends with! Hope that doesn't sound too lame after 2.5 years

Anyway, would anyone be interested in a drink sometime?

We are both 26, live in the wild wild west but can travel easily. I'd be happy to meet up with some girls for a girly chat or couples/families whatever. Anyone basically!

Hows about making it into a meet up. Off to the botanical gardens tomorrow to the moonlight cinema with a few mtes

Beers, nibbles and then to watch Monty Pythons Life of Brian, if anyone fancies it.

May be a bit short notice but meeting and going down there about 7.30 ish, film starts at 8.30ish or when the sun sets.

Its a brilliant venue, open air so bring mossie spray and food and beer.

If anyone fancies it, pm me and ill give you my number, head downa dn call me and ill tell you were we are. 3 english lads so far and an aussie girl as maybe and maybe a few others too.

Hi there!

My husband and I have just moved to Melbourne and would love to meet up. I'm Louise (26) and Chris is 28. Haven't really ventured out that much, mainly the city. We're staying in Collingwood at the moment, but can meet in the city maybe? And it doesn't sound lame-it takes a while to settle and find real friends. Let me know.

Hello!

Yep, we'd be up for meeting you. My hubby is 28 also (I'm 26). Let us know when you're here and want to meet.
