Hope you are enjoying Brissie. The weather is warming up a bit for you, the forecast said it will be 34 on Friday.

There are quite a few active groups on meetup.com in Brisbane. Groups of people just sign up to go along to random social events. I found it to be a good way to meet a few friendly people to go out for food / drinks with.

Hey J_Baker,

I live on the Sunshine Coast (1 hour north of you) but am a frequent visitor in Brisbane. I can show you a few of the places etc if you need or grab food/drink whatever. I'm 23 as well.

Hope you're enjoying Brisbane!

Hey guys. I'm a 24 year old bloke from Scotland who moved to Brisbane about a month ago. I hardly know anyone in the city and would like to meet up with people for a few drinks sometime if anyone is keen? I live about 20 mins from the CBD so meeting up in the centre is no problem for me !

Yeah mate sounds cool. What sport are you into? Being Scottish, do you watch the SPL? If so what team? I'm a mad EPL fan!

beers + sport = win
