Default New to Cleveland need to make friends

Hi
We moved to cleveland 8 weeks ago, we don't have children and I can' find work yet so making friends has become difficult, my husband is a bricklayer and working I'm a beauty therapist, we love go out finding new places and just having a laugh. so if anyone wants to meet up please let me thanks

Hi folks welcome to B Expats ,Australia and of course sunny Cleveland where all the nice people live We've also got no kids,in our 40's, been here just over 2 years and funnily enough have been known to like the odd Beer or 2 (or out else that's flowing for that manner) We're currently renting near the Rsl on Middle St where abouts are you ?
Would you care to join us this Friday over at Birkdale for an Injun Curry ? An excellent chance to meet some good friendly people believe me I'll tell what i'll do i'll book you 2 seats as i'm booking it now and you might not see this til it's too late and i'll just cancel them if you can't make it for any reason
What a service

Hiya

We are in Cleveland too, as Bobby says where all the nice people live . Weve been here for 5 months and it is hard to meet people when you arent working.

We have a child but if you want to meet up for coffee one morning/afternoon give me a yell. He goes to kindy 3 days a week and Mark works.

No probs folks have a good night (don't forget to visit Union Jacks between 5:30 & 7:30 for cheap as chips drinks ) Tis me that's arranging the horses but it's just a case of turning up if you want to as it's pay on the day (about $25 each) then just meeting up inside .We're actually booked into city hotel for the Fri & Sat nights otherwise we'd have done train with you. Should be about 7 couples turning up for it so has the hallmarks of a good day ( winning exempt of course ) and then it's off to the city bars for a few sherbets hopefully at night All the info is on here for anyone interested

Hi Frank ,know where you're coming from mate regarding taxis and $70 Tis a bit better for us though fortunately as we do have the train til about 12:45 am from the city if need be and a 20 min stagger homeDepends really mate on what offers are going at the time as to which hotel we use .Best i can do is recommend these websites but as you've been here for that long you'll probably know them anyway

http://www.quickbeds.com/
www.wotif.com
You can also sign up to http://au.travelzoo.com/ and receive a weekly email with the best offers they can find (but it's all over the world and not just oz)

If it's just basic we have used this before at the Valley Clean but basic as i say,and relatively cheap
http://www.snoozeinn.com.au/

There is also an all night bus from Brisbane but we've never used it though

By the way this time we're staying in Novotel
