At last we are here!!!!!
 

Hi Everyone,

I am new to your forum and have just moved from the UK.
We are in Cleveland. Is there anyone nearby? Can you suggest any places to take a 5 and a 8 yr old (without sharks!!!!)

Re: At last we are here!!!!!
 

Yes I know that it was a bit of a stupid posting but is there anybody out there>?

Re: At last we are here!!!!!
 

Do I have to keep answering myself? :scared:

Thanks for answering. We have been here for 6 wks and love it! Very stressfull though but it is all coming together now. How long have you been here? We do know of lots of places to take the kids but just, really came on to say hello. :D

Re: At last we are here!!!!!
 

1.10pm, 1.38pm and 1.39pm???

Of course you have to keep answering yourself, people who live in Cleveland are probably asleep at this time!!!!!

Patience, patience.................

Cheers

You are right I am not known for my patience just excited about being here at last. The swirl of the last 6 weeks is finally coming to an end and I can think again at last and have some spare time for once in I dont know how long. And, yes Cleveland is a quiet gentle place to live, just up my street. :p

Re: At last we are here!!!!!
 

Sounds great. Might move there myself. How far are you from a beach?

Cheers

Close enough I can almost touch a bull shark!!!! :cool:

Re: At last we are here!!!!!
 

Hi squirrel, glad you are settling in well. Can you tell me how you find it out there for the children, my friend says its not very child friendly out there and that it is frowned upon to see young children out after 7pm???? :eek:

Cheers,

Hi squirrel nutkin (like the name)! welcome to the forum! Can't help you yet but hope to be in Bayside by end of the year!
Jox :)

Re: At last we are here!!!!!
 

Hi
Have found everyone here so far very friendly,no probs with kids,far more laid back than the uk

Re: At last we are here!!!!!
 

Just like to add that in shops the kids are kept entertained whilst we are shopping. The places we eat are always very accommodating for lots of different tastes. And as I have said the people are far far friendlier than in the UK. Hope that puts your mind at ease. However, as my kids are so young and are in bed before 8pm I dont know how people react to kids at night.

Hi Squirrel,
Welcome to the madhouse!
There are loads of members down the Bayside (sometimes seems like half the forum!) - start with Mrs Dagboy and A Dogs Life, and keep going!
However, being Queensland they all like their bed early - thee and me may be the only Queenslanders awake, so you might have to cultivate some patience till tomorrrow!! In the meantime try searching on Cleveland or Bayside and see what you come up with.... (I'm in Aspley by the way, other end of town :) )

Re: At last we are here!!!!!
 

Thanks for that Squirrel. It has put my mind at ease. Was thinking if its not child freindly then I will just have to leave them at home in UK with MIL and go to Oz by ourselves...... (only joking! :D )
