Meet ups in Perth
 

Hi, we've just moved to Perth and managed to find ourselves jobs and a house to rent, which is great - just wondering if any groups meet up on a regular basis. It would be fantastic to make some new friends out here and share experiences and pick up some tips!
Be good to hear from you all.

Where are you? Perth's a big area. If it's just the wife then there are a few groups of women who meet regularly. If it's the whole family then there are sometimes meets in Kings Park. I used to organise them about every 8 weeks, but have not done so for a while since turnout went from the hundreds down to almost nobody.

Welcome Nic & Ralph,

There are a few meet ups during the day, mainly attended by the women (although my OH has been along to a few with me). There is one that meets up on a Wednesday lunch time in Joondalup and one that meets up on a Thursday lunch time at the beach shack in Hillaries. I've not been to the Joondalup one but am told they are a nice bunch and everyone welcome.

Not sure about any evening things really. We've only been here around 3 months ourselves so are still trying to find ways to make friends. Perhaps we should organise something and see who turns up.

We tried the Kings Park thing a first time we couldn't find anyone for ages and eventually found a small group, second time we organised to be there and no-one else turned up (billy-no-mates) so we're reluctant to do that again really which is a shame.

Hi Margy,
I just read about the girlies coffee club in Joondalup, so if I'm not working I'll give that a try. Is is every wednesday? I've just posted a new thread about anyone interested in meeting up in the Swan Valley near where we live. Where do you live - is that close for you?

Hi, we're in the Swan Valley, any meet ups round there?

Hi,

I'm in North Beach, the meet at the Coffee Club in Joondalup is every Wednesday 11a.m. - 2 p.m. - I went for the first time yesterday and they are a welcoming bunch. The meet at the Beach Shack in Hillaries is every Thursday 12.30/1.00p.m. - 2ish, I've been to this quite a few times now and they are all very nice. New comers to both welcome.

I don't know of any meets in Swan Valley but have a look around, there are bound to be a few.
