Talking Re: Toowoomba anyone????

Hi There,
Well you are not the only brit in Toowoomba , I have been living here for over a year and quite like the place.
Where in the UK are you from??? If you would like to meet up for a coffee let me know.

We have been here for approx 3 months and I must admit to struggling to make new friends.
I am looking to make any new friends (not just other Mum's) so if you are local PLEASE get in touch, I think making friends would make the world of difference out here.

Hi everyone, I haven't had internet access for a while so I have not been able to check the site.

Wow, I had no idea there were any other Pommies in Toowoomba, I have never heard the accent around!!
I have joined the local running club, the gym and the local library for baby rhyme time, but still I am not making friends!!! I have never had a problem before! lol

Hi All
Great to see so many expats in Toowoomba. We should be moving there from Sydney at the end of the year although, we are regular visitors to the area anyway.
Would love to get together when we are in town during July if anyone is around?
