Hi

Just arrived yesterday to Freo, got 4 weeks here. Hopefully they are busy working on our visa as we "type" and when we arrive back in the UK on 28th May there is an envelope with positive news, ie. YES!!!

Anyway, never mind about that, please can you tell me when the next meet is at Hilary's. Would love to go and meet you all. Do you mind if I bring a blokey type person, ie. my boyfriend Paul. May be persuaded to buy the cakes!!! He could also adapt to being an honary girly in disguise (doesnt do thongs, except on feet!!)

Hi! :)

My husband and I emigrate on 5th August. We are familiar with Perth as my parents live out there, though I'm keen to meet new people. I'm 25 and am a primary teacher. I'd love to meet up at some point around that time (providing something has been arranged?) and have a good ol' natter - the coffee and cake sounds fab!

I think it's a great idea to have these gatherings and I look forward to meeting up with some of you very soon!
Kate.

Hi I'm a teacher too and hope to make it out later this year (probably christmas). Heading for around Hilary's - we think, would love to meet new people, I'll keep an eye on this thread to find out when the meets are.
Thanks
Michelle

Re: PERTH-help for newbies!
 

Sounds good - I'll keep my eyes peeled too!

Are you from the primary or secondary gang? I'm teaching primary (year 5 at the mo.) Am only in my second year but am loving it. Soon we'll be telling the kiddies to pop their sunnies on and reach for their sun hats - hmmm! :cool: Sounds good doesn't it!

Speak soon, Kate :)

Re: PERTH-help for newbies!
 

I am in the lucky position that I teach primary and secondary. I am secondary PE trained but am in a private school so teach the 7- 18 age group. Took some time to get used to 7 year olds but I enjoy it now!

Re: PERTH-help for newbies!

so i guess its the sarong, bikini and (foot) thongs for him then :eek:

im sure it will be a useful meet for you.. wish i could go but tied up with work... (and cream cakes cost too much ;) )i think we need a weekend meet too (any excuse for a beer!) anyway it was a very useful meet for us and gave us the positive side of being over here unlike some of the posts in this here forum!

enjoy and good luck with the visa

Steve
